The kids picked their Easter outfits this year. Ben had to have a shirt and tie like dad. I tried and tried to talk him out of it and told him the only reason dad still wears a shirt and tie is because that's what he has. Nothin' doin'! Although, by Easter morning, he had decided he didn't want to wear his tie. Um...WRONG! Since I bought it and I let him pick it out, I made him wear it. I must admit, he did look cute! Anna Kate on the other hand LOVES wearing pretty dresses. She was all disturbed and worried because I didn't buy myself an easter dress. I had to reassure her over and over that mommy didn't want an easter dress! Not against them, I just don't like to wear them!
All in all, the kids looked adorable and I have a pretty good lookin' husband too! Church was great that morning! The church was packed and Ben still had on his tie when I picked him up from class! I can almost guarantee he won't have that on again this year and I'll NEVER buy another one for him. Anna Kate, on the other hand, has already asked to wear her dress again! I'm sure we'll get plenty of use out of her easter attire!
We had Easter dinner and an egg hunt at mom and dad's after church. The kids were so excited! Mom went all out on the eggs. I think there were around 80 eggs hidden! That's just like my mom too! We were only supposed to have sandwiches for lunch too, but we had the works! I know some people might think we're crazy but I love living this close to mom and dad! My dad and mom always think about others first...which is why mom went all out and filled 80 eggs with candy! She wanted her grandkids to have fun at her house! Dad and mom live their lives for others. My dad helps us constantly with fixing the house...he teaches Scott as he goes. My mom is constantly on the go taking care of others in the family, using her vacation time for dr. appointments and such, and then always seems to have energy for the grandkids!

Precious! Precious! Love to see your happy little family doing so well :)
They looked adorable! Of course, they are adorable. :) I love Ben's tie...hehe. My son even wore a tie for Easter this year. Look at him!! :) And, can you believe that no one gave him any money for wearing it? Thanks for sharing the pictures. Looks like Nana did a great job in filling the eggs. Bryce had to have an egg hunt by himself and I bought the pre-filled eggs. (I cheated a bit!!) Love you all.
