Easter Sunday--April 24, 2011

Easter Sunday was extra special for so many reasons this year. We are so thankful and happy to celebrate the Resurrection! In addition to that, Jake got most of the day off work (he usually works Sundays at Daybreak), and got to be with the family for church and Easter dinner. Another super special thing about this Easter was, not only was it Lilly's first Easter, but it was her baby dedication as well! My parents were there, Uncle Rex and Aunt Kathy, Jake's parents, Jake's Grandma, my Grandma Jones, and Jake's cousin, Devin, were all there as well. Lilly was pretty cheerful and even let Pastor Jim hold her (although she did get pretty grabby with his microphone!).




After church, we went to my Mom's for a lovely Easter lunch. This year we decided to keep it simple and do deli sandwiches and lots of fruits and veggies. It was so nice and so fun. Jake's parents and grandma, as well as Devin, joined us. My Grandma and Grandpa Miller made it as well as Grandma Jones. Our friends, Ben and Janelle and their baby, Bendigo, made it too. After lunch, we did an Easter Egg Hunt for Jackson. Let's just say he got a lot more eggs than the day before! Some of the plastic eggs had chocolate in them and Grandpa Webb decided to trick Jackson by trading some of the chocolate for rocks in a couple of them! The look on Jackson's face was priceless!

Sweet little Lilly

Jackson had to open every single plastic egg to inspect it--let's just say it was not a quick hunt!


Again!




Rocks! What the...
