He Has Risen!

He has risen!  Not only are we talking about Jesus on Easter morning, but our own in-house early riser... 5:45am to be exact.

Since we needed to get to church early, we decided to get the show started.  We unleashed Drew to find all the eggs hidden by the Easter Bunny.




After he found all 42 eggs - 10 dyed, the rest plastic - it was time for his Easter Basket.  Inside he had a coloring book, 2 sticker books, "dessert" a.k.a. Recees peanut butter eggs, a Frog & Toad L2 Reading book, and a Mobigo game


Once he opened each and every one of his plastic eggs to see what kind of loot was inside (some quarters, stickers, and candy) we had to hurry up and get ready for the Church Breakfast, Easter Egg Hunt and Service.

Drew was happy to find something on the buffet table he'd eat - doughnut holes.


At 9:15 they started the Easter Egg hunt for the kids - which was moved indoors because of the rain.  Drew wasn't sure what to make of all the kids who tried to trample him and get to the easy eggs first.


In the end, Pastor's son snuck Dave a few of the spare eggs to "hide" them special for Drew to find.  I think that was the success of the egg hunt for Drew...


After the church service - which was standing room only - we stepped outside to take some photos at the flower cross.  Members are asked to bring flowers from home to decorate this cross which starts outside, moves inside to the altar and then back outside after the service.



After church we were off to Grammy and GrampC's to have dinner and enjoy everyone's company.  I apparently never snapped any pictures.  Oops.  Bad Mommy.
