We had a wonderful--if exhausting--Easter Sunday. Mimi and Poppy were in town (more on that in an upcoming post), and we were all up, dressed and out the door by 8:30 a.m. for early church. We even had time to take a few obligatory photos first.
Church was wonderful, and then Honey and Morgan came over afterward for lunch. R&G took an awesome long nap while Peggy, Mom and I got lunch ready, and woke up just as we were sitting down to eat. It worked out perfectly!

| "Mean eyes" -- Grant's favorite (and funniest) new trick |
In case it's not obvious, these kids were pretty stoked about ham, green rice, macaroni and cheese, and (decaffeinated) sweet tea.
The boys had tried their hand at egg-hunting at our neighborhood Easter party on Saturday (another post to come--told you I'm behind), so I knew there wasn't much point in trying to relive it on Sunday. Instead they settled for examining their Easter baskets while sitting on top of the kitchen table -- a big treat in its own right.
As is the norm lately, their favorite part was the new books:
It was a nice, long afternoon with lots of time for playing:
And, because I'm sucker for nostalgia, here are a couple of pictures from their first Easter:
I've never been more grateful for the reminder that we serve a risen Lord, and death has no power over those who believe in Him. He is risen indeed!
Y'all are cuuuuuuuuuute!
