Easter 2012

Our Easter was very low key this year.  I spent most of the day wishing Caleb was there, but loved seeing Emmy hunt for eggs and get so excited about finding the little prizes inside.

We started the day by going to church and then to my parents for a yummy lunch.  Emmy ate like a champ (we are still trying to get her to gain weight). After a short nap, we headed to Ama and Bapa's house for dinner and an egg hunt.

Emmy was all about finding the eggs, but wouldn't put her Dora cup down while she was hunting for them.  Lynda and I tried to hold it for her, but she was not letting that thing go!

Ama and Bapa's house is perfect for an Easter egg hunt!  

After finding all the eggs (30 to be exact) we walked around looking at the ducks and geese while Ama finished making dinner.

  

Emmy is so fun these days and she loves being outside so after dinner went outside for more exploring!

I was trying to find the right time all afternoon to distract her from all the wildlife she was awing over to get a photo of the two of us, but she wasn't going to be still for long!!!  

We ended up getting one "good" one...

And then is was silly Emmy again.

Over all Easter was great and I hope the true meaning of this day is starting to make an impact on little Emmy.  While we were on the phone with Caleb we had a little family time while he told Emmy the story of Easter and that we serve a risen Savior!!!!  It was special, but I'm really excited about next year when he will be with us.
