Saturday morning, the whole gang - plus my dad and Patty - met at First OHUMC for their annual Easter Festival. There are some little games for the kids to play plus an Easter egg hunt. Jackson was so nice to share some of the stickers in his eggs (notice it's not the candy) with Kennedy :)
That afternoon, there was a huge Easter celebration at my mom's. Since everyone was needing to head back early in the afternoon on actual Easter Sunday, we decided to do all of the festivities the day before. Audrey and Liz came, and Brenda, Travis, Dani, and the kids were there, too. I know it's very different now with many loved ones gone and new ones added, but it felt a lot like holidays when I was a kid. Everyone talked and laughed and ate well into the night.
Sunday morning, we all dressed up and Kennedy went to her first Easter service. We decided to join my mom at her church so she could show her off. And that was really fun :) She also wore her new bow! We sat in the back row since we had three little ones four and under, just in case we needed to sneak out. But everyone did great and little noise was made by all!
Of course we took the obligatory pictures in front of the beautiful cross at the front of the church ;)
How do you pick the best one???
Luckily Lindsay knows her pictures of perfect family photos is pretty much over.
But she was able to get her fix with Kennedy!
I also had to take some pictures of Kennedy in her Easter basket from the grandmothers. Unfortunately, she wasn't a fan (and I tried multiple times). Most looked like the first picture, so you'll just have to imagine what she would look like if that lamb pacifier wasn't in her mouth ;)
And just because I think this is hilarious looking, I kept Lindsay entertained on her drive home by sending her pictures of my face swapped with her's, Ben's, and Jackson's (Dean's didn't work). I used one of Nelson's Snapchat filters and we could not stop laughing.
