Happy Easter!

After a record-breaking cold and snowy winter in Western North Carolina (and really the whole east coast), we are thrilled to be welcoming warm sunshine-filled days! Easter weekend was absolutely beautiful with oodles of daffodils and every flowering tree in full bloom. We feel so blessed to be here-- all together, no pressures, just family time. Here are a few snapshots from the weekend.

Coloring and painting eggs--try to focus on the eggs and not the huge mama! We got some glitter paint this year which both kiddos loved-- Max drew all kinds of neat things like a flying dolphin and a noodle. Ruby stuck with writing names and drawing people-- two of her favorite things to do!

Sitting on the fence after church. I hate to say it, but I think this is the best shot of Max. He is one busy boy and not at ALL interested in photo shoots!

Miss Ruby looking pretty in pink. She sure is growing up... what a beauty!

The best of the worst family photos. We really need to get a tripod-- balancing the camera on the deck chopped the top off Jared's head every time-- not to mention the lighting isn't the best. Oh well, this is our family Easter 2010!

Daddy and the munchkins.

I hope your Easter was as blessed as ours--that you took time to remember the Savior who not only came to earth for us, not only died for our sins, but rose again! He is risen!!
