We had a wonderful Holy Week leading up to Easter. Whereas in the past, Easter has revolved a lot around the big bunny, this year we barely mentioned the Easter bunny, because all of our focus was on the real reason for the season, so to speak. It made my heart sing when Caroline and John Michael were just as excited to go through the Resurrection Eggs and watch a video about Christ's crucifixion and sacrifice, as they were about the bunny coming to see them.
Found a camouflage egg!

As the kids were hunting eggs around the house bright and early Sunday morning, Caroline stopped and said, "Praise the Lord, Jesus is alive!" While saying this, she lifted her arms in a "raise the roof" type of motion!
Our church service was great, and afterward, we hosted my mom, sister and her family for a big lunch and an even bigger egg hunt. The kids racked up on coins for their piggy banks! (Earlier in the week, John Michael had two other Easter parties/hunts, and Caroline had one at school.)
