Happy Easter!

"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead..."
1 Peter 1:3

We celebrated Easter with Daddy a little early because he had to work on Sunday...
The weekend's activitites began Friday night at the Good Friday service at our church, which was super! Great weather for an outside fish fry and awesome worship and message.
Before the Easter egg hunt at church on Saturday morning, we gave Avery her Easter basket and new chair. Not surprisingly, her favorite gift was a bunny gum ball machine:) *Only 2 at a time and she actually chews & spits it out when she's finished!


Waiting patiently while Daddy opened the gum ball machine.


Mommy thought the hunt started 30 minutes later than it actually did. So, this is what was left when we arrived...

Go Avery go! Get your 4 eggs!

And happy she was with 4!

Back home & relaxing with daddy before he left for work.

**Somehow I got zero pictures of Easter Sunday morning**

Sunday afternoon, we met daddy at the airport for a quick visit during a break he had back in Houston. Avery loved watching the airplanes take off.

Egg hunt #2. This time in comfy clothes at Grammie & Biggie's.

The eggs were prepared a few weeks ago by Aunt Abby & Uncle Pablo. What a treat to have specially-designed eggs just for her!


The week before Easter we had pizza night with the Guinns. What cute bunnies they all are:)
