Easter Weekend

We decided to take Good Friday off this year, sort of.  Nathan still got up and went to work and the kids still went to Sara's until about noon, but then I went and picked them up and we had an extra momma afternoon.  Friday evening we ended up having pizza hut for dinner with mema and papa, which the kids LOVED. 
Saturday was a nasty rainy morning, but I had scheduled haircuts, so off we went in the rain.  Asher did better this time than last time, and looks like such a little man with his hair cut short.  Amelia looks SO much better, I hadn't realized how long her bangs had grown. 
 
I nearly cried when taking this picture.  Doesn't he look SO big?
Saturday afternoon we had Easter at my mom's house.  The rain cleared up and it ended up being a beautiful afternoon, however the yard was very soggy, so that limited where we could 'hide' eggs.  But hey a 3 year old and an 18 month old don't really care where the eggs are hidden. 
 
 

Sunday morning the kids slept in until 6:30, which was GREAT, but put us in a bit of a rush to get to church at 8:30.  We made it on time, but I failed to get one good picture of the kids dressed up together.  Asher refused to take his bink out to let me get a cute picture of him AND he wouldn't stand by Amelia. Needless to say, his favorite word of the morning was, no.

 
 
 
 
I took his bink out.

Only picture of them together.  UGH.
 
 
 
Sunday after church was Easter dinner at Joe and Lois's and the kids were able to play outside some more.  We finished the weekend off by grilling chicken and playing outside at home.  The kids were in heaven, they LOVE being outside.  I'm so glad we got to spend sometime out there this weekend since it's sleet today.  It was a great weekend!

 
Mark 16:6 But he said to them, “Do not be alarmed. You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified.  He has been raised! He is not here. Look, there is the place where they laid him.
