Happy Easter!

What a wonderful day!  We decided to check out 7:00am mass instead of 9:00.  I love our church and all that they offer for families and hte community - I don't love how long even a regular Sunday mass runs.  We knew there was no little church or children's literugy, so chances were pretty high it would be rough.  It was early - and we were a couple minutes late - but we made it!  Once we got home the kids had to hunt for their baskets. 


When Brian was growing up his dad always hid their Easter baskets - he likes to talk about the year that he didn't find it until Monday because his dad hid it up the chimney - so that has become one of our traditions.  It was actually pretty comical because each boy found a basket, but no one found their own.  Max found Jack's, Jack found William's, and William found Max's.  Once we got it all sorted otu they headed to the basement for an egg hunt since it was rainy out. 




 Max looks so grown up!  I just can't take it!

 William loves dressing up.  He was so excited to wear his very favorite fancy shirt and his new dress shoes. 

All three boys love silly faces.  Jack's face is supposed to be his surprised face - even though it looks more like a roar.

 AFter some quite time we headed over to Aunt Carm and Uncle Mike's house for some more fun - including the annual egg hunt in their back yard.  The kids were scoping out all the eggs from the steps as we took their picture - and everyone was talking about the egg on top of the chimney.  With a little help - Jack got to do the honors. 
 Jack was pretty proud of his egg collection.  He also had a blast with his godfather Tony.  Tony does a great job of making him fly like an airplane.  Jack talked about it for two days!

Another fabulous holiday in the books.  We are so grateful for these moments with our boys!
