Happy Easter!

We had such a wonderful Easter today and I feel truly blessed to have such a wonderful family. We started off our Easter celebrations last night by coloring eggs with the boys. The boys had so much fun. We started kind of late so we had to finish them today. This morning the boys were very excited to see what the Easter Bunny brought for them, all though at first Eli thought that the Easter Bunny was going to be downstairs. The boys each got a coloring book, 2 books, a toy, sunglasses, a velcro baseball mitt, and of course some candy. They were excited about everything but hands down they were the most excited about the baseball mitts!! I think we will be playing a lot of baseball this summer!!!

We then were able to go church with Mike's family and then after Mass we headed over to his parents house for a nice brunch and Easter celebration for the kids. The boys had a blast with their cousins and they had so much fun going on an Easter egg hunt. Eli had no trouble finding the eggs on his own and Jude didn't mind Mommy helping him. After we got home the boys were able to finish their eggs and play with their new toys.

It looks like so much stuff but it really isn't that much.

I am so thankful for our families. They all made sure that our boys had a wonderful Easter even if we weren't able to be with everyone. It is so hard to not be able to see both sides of our families for each holiday and I hate that we have to miss out on somethings especially since both sides of our families are so giving to us. Luckily we have very understanding families. We love you all!!
