EASTER SUNDAY "JESUS CHRIST IS RISEN TODAY"

We spent our Holy Saturday evening with some great friends, and then it was off to Easter Vigil Mass at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton!  What a beautiful Mass full of joyful Baptisms, confirmations and sacred scripture!  It started off with only the light of candles (the kids love to hold them) The kids brought bells to ring during the Gloria to celebrate the end of Lent and the Resurrection of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ!!

EASTER MORNING
The clever Easter Bunny always hides the baskets from the kids!  We finally found them!!
 My little Nicholas Bunny!
 My sweet Madison Bunny!
 Savannah Bunny got Jammies from the Easter Bunny that look JUST like our neighbor's dog, Gabby!
 Out for an Easter Egg hunt!!
 That Bunny is REALLY good at hiding all of the eggs
 My little sweet bunnies were helping each other find eggs
 They all had such fun!
NOW...OFF TO GRANDMA AND GRANDPA'S HOUSE FOR THE DAY!
 Coloring cookies with Grandma and our cousins
 Each cookie was a masterpiece!
 Daddy's happy Easter!! It was late night with the Easter Vigil and an early morning with the egg hunt!
 My cute nieces, Courtney and Kerry (named after me!!)
 Pretty cookies out for display
 Playing outside on our "rip sticks" they only have 2 wheels!!  They worked so hard to learn to ride on them.  Their big sis, Madison taught them how!
