Easter Day

Here are the girls in their Easter dresses (on the left) in front of the churches traditional flower cross. And (on the right) is ALittleBit putting a flower on the cross...with Em in the background putting hers on too.




Then at Children's Time I got a pretty good picture of Em and Elizabeth sitting together listening to Pastor Chuck. Notice on the right of Elizabeth is Erin Burrell and just on the Pastor's right arm is Caleb Nolen. Elizabeth sat there pretty good thru most of Children's time. Emily, Erin, and one other friend of Emily's, Emma Schmidt, kept Elizabeth corralled. :)


After church we joined the Nolens and Schmidts over at the Nolens for Easter Lunch. It was Yum and we all had a good visit. Then we returned home for a brief nap and then an egg hunt for Elizabeth. It took her a few minutes to figure out that she was suppose to find the eggs. Then she would just go calmly around picking them up if she beat Emily to them.



During most of the egg hunt, I for the first time in a long time was out in the backyard and started stressing about how badly the yard needed attention. So after the hunt was over I pulled the mower and rakes out and started working on the yards. Yikes ... so much to do and no
time to do it. We have lost one tree to barkbeetles and need to get someone over to
take it out and to do what we can to protect the other trees. This will be a long
summer I am afraid.

Hope everyone had a great Easter!
