The Easter Bunny has always visited our house bright and early Saturday morning. We have always had Saturday as the "Easter Bunny" type of day, so that we could spend Sunday thinking about the true meaning of Easter. Ryan was very pleased with his basked from the Easter Bunny this year. He even said, "Mom, I know you're the tooth fairy, but I know you're not the Easter Bunny. There's no way you could have gotten all of this stuff." What a great Easter Bunny!
We spent most of Saturday at Rara & Papa's with Marc & Frances and Alice & Claire. We had a wonderful dinner, and then a fun Easter egg hunt in the backyard. Even though it was a little chilly, it stopped raining long enough for us to be outside for a while.
We had fun playing with the girls inside with the cute bunnies from Rara & Papa.
Of course, we can't let a major holiday pass without dressing up the grandkids.
And an Easter/birthday picture with Rara.
Saturday evening, Ryan and I went on our "date night" to the Gateway and saw "Monsters vs. Aliens - 3D.) I'm always up for anything involving those huge and hilarious 3-D glasses. It was definitely a kids' movie (read: cheesy), but there were enough funny lines to keep parents somewhat amused. It's always fun to watch kids reaching out for things at 3-D movies, so that's also always good for a chuckle or two.
We spent Easter Sunday morning at church, and then had a nice visit with our next-door neighbors. Ryan kept them entertained by showing them everything they could do with their Nintendo DS.
We're heading to Rara & Papa's again soon for our second round of Easter celebrations. But I want to end this post with this video reminding us of the true meaning and significance of this day.
Happy Easter, everyone!
