Easter Sunday 2012

This year the Easter Bunny was pretty good to Brantley. She got a beautiful dress, a coloring book, ABC book, vitamins, cookies and some candy. She was in heaven that morning just looking at it all! BR dove right in and ate opened one of her eggs that was filled with a few Jelly Beans. Starburst jelly beans are the bomb, by the way!
Unfortunately, Chase had to be at work during church so BR and I went to VHUMC with my parents. Brantley stayed in the service with me and she did surprisingly well. Goldfish and water during the sermon were the key to keeping her seated and quiet.

After church we went over to my parents house for family lunch. Like usual, I should have taken more pictures of everyone that was there but we only took these cute pictures before we changed clothes and ate lunch. Brantley's cousins, Abby, Will and Molly were there as well. They had an egg hunt just before it was time to head home for nap time and I didn't get any pictures. Bad Mom!

Easter is such a special day to celebrate our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. He is Risen!! I'm so thankful for the sacrifice that was made for us and all the love, hope and life we have been given. Spending time with family makes me so aware and thankful for all the many blessings we have been given.

We ended our day by having dinner at Chase's parents house. BR got to hide and find eggs at their house too! She had major sugar overload and bedtime was rough. Today was much better and her candy intake was close to nothing compared to how much she had on Sunday. haha!
