A Beautiful Easter Sunday!

 We've never done an Easter egg hunt with the kids before, but it was such a perfectly gorgeous day I thought it'd be fun to shake things up a bit!  I hid eggs and candy all over the backyard while the kids were upstairs taking showers, and when we got home from church I sent them outside for the "hunt".





 Love this picture of Ya'shar trying to "hide" in the tree...

 My pictures are a little out of order!  We took these on the front porch before we left for church.  I love my girls in yellow!  It's such a happy spring color!  (And I busted out my Sunday best in a cute little $5 dress I found at a second hand shop in Sonoma last fall - gotta love hand-me-downs!)


 

 We decided on pizza for lunch, and of course had to eat outside! 

 During lunch we Skyped with Daryle, who was in Chicago to visit his family.  What a blessing that he was able to get tickets at the last minute, and that I happened to be off, and his cousins were home as well.  God works ALL things....  This is Uncle Clinton!!
 And this is Aunt Ethel, whom we are expecting miracles for!!


Daryle sent me a text with this picture and said, "Do you recognize this guy?" I thought he looked vaguely familiar, but had no idea...  He was on the Biggest Loser several seasons back, and his wife (who is Daryle's cousin) sings back up for Seal.  Chicago connections!?!?!

Monique and Aunt Ethel
This is Daryle's sister, Michelle, singing - I could listen to her all day long....  You can hear Daryle and his cousins singing along with her in the background.  So much talent in that family!  Please Lord, let it pass to our children!  LOL
