Easter Weekend 2019

We had such a fun Easter weekend! My parents stayed with us, and we were thankful for a beautiful weekend to enjoy time together.

Most of the weekend was filled with playing, playing, and more playing :)  Our kiddos just wanted to soak up as much Grandma and Papa time as they could! And Grandma and Papa were not complaining!

Friday was the 9 year anniversary of my and Mike's first date. So we were able to enjoy a fun date away while Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Michael, and "Tia Linda" {my aunt Rosalinda} babysat for us. I forgot to snap a photo, but we ran some errands, sat and talked at Starbucks Reserve, and had dinner at a new restaurant called Mexican Sugar. It was a fun date and so nice to have some time just the two of us!

On Saturday, we celebrated my mom's birthday. We went to lunch, and then we headed to Towne Lake Park. It was a gorgeous day, and we had so much fun!

After naps, we gave Grandma her birthday present, and Eli and Maddie were very excited to help with that haha.

  

On Sunday, we finished our Shepherd's Treasure journey {post to come tomorrow}, went to church, and then had lunch at home. Granny and Grumpz came over, so we enjoyed a fun afternoon with them too!

Aunt Lindsay sent her cookie love :)

And finally, we had a little Easter egg hunt for Eli and Maddie. We did it inside because we had treated the yard for weeds and didn't want them outside with those chemicals. But they didn't seem to mind at all. Most of the eggs were empty, but I did fill a couple with a few M&M's. Eli loved finding the eggs and filling his basket. As soon as Maddie realized there was something inside one of her eggs, she stopped searching for eggs and just wanted to open it haha.

We had such a fun weekend, and we are so thankful for the gifts of family time, laughter, and love. Thank you, Jesus for the life we experience in You!
