The Neal Family: Easter

Easter

Easter is such a nice holiday. It marks the beginning of spring for me and it's a great holiday for kids having fun. I love all the spring food too, asparagus, peas, ham, yum! I also really like going to Saturday night mass, but it is like 3 hours long and I have small children so we may have to wait a few years before we venture out to that one.

Our Easter weekend was full of fun, eggs, yummy food, and family. We really enjoyed ourselves. I'll sum up our weekend as I go with pictures. (They loaded in reverse order, so I'm gonna go backwards)

Here are my loves, home and tired but still took out some Daddy time!

Maggie and River after the Easter Bunny brought Maggie her cool glasses. Don't they look sweet?

Reese and River in their Easter best. I had to threaten Reese to take this but she did and I'm so glad because they look so sweet together.

Maggie hunting eggs.

Mags and Reese with some of their loot, we got lots of smarties, I stopped counting at 30! Wowza!

This was what Riv did while we were finding eggs. I wish I would've taken a nap instead too.

Reese on the hunt for Easter Ecks!!

River all dressed up in his tie.

Reese with her gymnastics ribbon. She thinks you should squeeze your eyes shut to take a picture. Silly girl!

3 little sweeties in a dog pile!

My Grandma holding River at my Mom's house on Easter Saturday.

Reese and River in the shirts I made. Just write what you want with gel glue, let it dry and then dye them with RIT. They turned out great and here she is again with her silly "cheese!"

My handsome nephew getting a smoocheroo from Reese.

This is pretty much River's entire weekend. But I don't want to forget about him in pictures!!

Reese stuffed in one too many Laffy Taffys!!

Lulu, Jason and their cute, cute, cute boy, Deakan.

Deakan was SOOOOO mad that he couldn't hold all the Reese's eggs at one time. He doesn't even eat peanut butter but he was a little sad that he couldn't get them all. We thought it was HILARIOUS!!
