We had such a busy Easter weekend!
Even though I had Friday off, I had so many errands to do that I was gone the entire day!
It didn't make for a restful weekend, but we did have a lot of fun!
Saturday, we had Sallee Easter at Grandma Pat's.
Carson sported his new hat - just adorable!
The girls were pretty as ever... and they participated in the hunt, because there is money to be found in them. Works every time!
Carson loves a good Easter Egg hunt. I just love his love for life and I so enjoy experiencing it with him.
Khloe would only pick up the pink and purple eggs. It was hilarious watching her pass so many of the eggs just because they were the wrong color. :)
The lineup after the hunt! Cousins!
The next morning, Carson told me how tired he was. And he just couldn't get up. So, I told him that I would just have to check to see if the Easter bunny had come by myself. His eyes then SHOT OPEN and he darted out of bed. very interesting.....
I try not to get too much candy, because he always gets so much of it. I had to throw away left over Halloween candy just to make room in the "candy bowl" for the Easter loot. Of course, he got a chocolate bunny. That was a tradition from my childhood. There always must be a chocolate bunny!
And, he decided that the Darth Vader eggs must be prototypes the bunny was trying out for the future since he hadn't seen them in stores. Too funny.
We had a great time at church. Due to illness and trips, it had been awhile since we had been there and I do not like missing. Life doesn't feel right without going each week to worship and refocus.
We had a low key pizza lunch at our house with the grandparents after church. Ollie was so happy to have his family home. He is such a sweet pup. We really lucked out when we picked him.

After the grandparents left, we decided to dye some Easter eggs.
We have never dyed eggs with Carson. I don't know why, but it seems that we get so busy that it just gets put off every year. I decided that we needed to do it this year before he decides he is too old to do it. He loved it, of course. We'll have to do even more eggs next year.
I'm sure he won't let us skip out on doing it now. :)
Our beautiful eggs turned out nicely. Notice the E,L,C and O for all of our names.
We had a great day, and I'm so thankful to my Lord and Savior. We are all given grace through Jesus who died for our sins. None of us are worthy of the grace and love that He shows us.
We fail everyday. I'm so grateful that he never fails and gave me the opportunity to have everlasting life with Him. All I had to do was recognize that I am a sinner and imperfect and believe that He has come to save me from it all. Now I am His FOREVER! Nothing can change it.
