Easter

The bunny showed up and Laik really didn't know what to think...

....get this thing out of my bed!

That was Saturday morning....so then we headed to the zoo with our friends, Carter, Chapman (not pictured), and Parker....  Laik has decided he is tired, Parker is not going for this at all without his mommy and Carter is really wanting this to be a good picture!

After a full Saturday with our friends, finally Easter Sunday morning arrived.  Early, very early...we were at the Duck Pond for the sunrise service with Pastor Ben from Northside Presbyterian at 7:30 am.  Getting there that early, meant we better get a family photo....quickly, before our clothes were drink dribbled, food splashed, or slobber soaked!

The sunrise service was fabulous.  Then we moved on to the church for the Pancake Breakfast.  Laik was patiently waiting for our turn in the line!  

Then, it was time to put that Easter bucket into action and hunt some eggs!  

The hunt...

The slide was a nice resting spot....hunting eggs is hard work.  

Then, he spotted the cozy car.  The cozy car has become one of Laik's favorite riding toys.  At school, he pushes backward and then lifts his feet to roll down the slope!

One more family picture after the breakfast....it is far enough away that the dribble, splashes and slobber from the pancake breakfast cannot been seen.  And this was our best of the 10 taken. :o) 

I just love this one!  He looks like he is up to something....

Two precious boys!

After the worship service, we headed up the mountain to the Leffew's for Easter Lunch.  (Note: this is large meal #2 of the day!)  We snapped a shot of the annual rocking chair picture while at the farm.  (Check out the picture on the top right side of the blog to see just how much bigger Laik is this year!!!!)

Now, out of his church clothes and into play clothes for some swing time!

He loves to swing!  I love to see his blonde hair blowing in the wind!

After an afternoon with the Leffew gang, it was time to move on to the Russell gathering.  Might I add, that meant we would have Easter Dinner (large meal #3) with my side of the family at my sister's house! We had an egg hunt and then we decided to call it a day.  But, one last pic with Mommy!

The weekend was full of time with friends and family and worship!  

Easter Sunday....Jesus Christ is risen!  He is risen indeed!  

Happy Easter!
