Easter was the first holiday we celebrated as Illinois residents. We celebrated the holiday with some good ole Easter egg fun! We kicked the weekend off with breakfast at Nana and Papa's house, along with an egg hunt at the Rochester Park.

Brody found one egg during the hunt. He was so taken back with all the goodies inside that one egg, he didn't have any interest finding any others. Meanwhile, Mr. and Mrs. Easter Bunny arrived on scene and Brody wanted nothing to do with them. As you can notice in the picture below, he is holding onto my leg crying for dear life as we get a quick pic of the fam.

We spent some much needed down time between the festivities. Here is my baby girl doing her tummy time. She loves being on her belly, something her older brother didn't want any part of when he was a little guy. It's crazy how different their personalities already are.
Easter Sunday morning was an exciting busy time to say the least. Brody anxiously opened up his Easter basket, as well as sissy's too (poor sissy, at least I managed to get a pic of it). His basket was filled with all kind of goodies from the Easter Bunny. He especially LOVED the candy and baseball set. Daddy was trying to show Brody how to hit the ball, however Brody had his own special way. :) After we played with our new gifts, we headed to church to celebrate the REAL reason of Easter.
After church, we headed over to Granny and Papa Don's house. Brody and Olivia got some fun toys and goodies and enjoyed another egg hunt. Brody mastered how to open the Easter eggs this time around, unfortunately he didn't understand the importance of opening the eggs in your basket. Oh well, he didn't seen to mind a little grass with his candy. )

And what would Easter be without dying eggs?!?! Ok, maybe we finally got to the egg dyin' stuff a week later. But that counts for something..right?!
Things were a bit crazier this year with having two little ones and all the family activities. But, we are so thankful our children got to spend this holiday with all their grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins!! We cannot thank our families enough for making our kiddos feel so special!! We love you!!
