Easter Best

Happy Easter!

Outside Brian's parents Church Service.




Easter Baskets in the morning, we will call this the BREAKFAST OF CHAMPIONS.... and that is how they acted for the rest of the day. "Champions" as in crazy children with more energy than the Tasmanian devil. Just kidding. All things (meaning all the candy) considered, they were amazing.





At the Easter Egg hunt with Gaynea.



Inspecting our findings.....





This is my all time favorite Easter Dress. Avery wore this years ago, and hopefully Auri will wear it next year. I love the simplicity of it, with the little Easter Bunny on the front.


After church and Brunch at John and Patsy's house, we headed into Portland to visit with Aunt Sandra. Two of Sandra's daughters were there with their families. It was such great visit.






I thought Patsy and John looked like a very handsome couple.




My favorite pictures of the day. Sandra and Patsy with their Annual Easter hats. They put them on at the end of the day and broke into song and dance. Their laughter reminded me of me and my sisters. Their love and happiness is so apparent.



What a Young Spirit!!


Lastly, one of my baking highlights, Meringue Bunnies. Huge hit....to be repeated next year.
