EASTER DAY

After Reese woke up bright and early, he came downstairs and told me he'd give me 5 more minutes!! So, I got the video camera (intending to just get Reese and let Raygan-Elise sleep) until I heard Reese waking her up saying, "see Raygan-Elise the Easter bunny has come. Wanna go see your basket? Wanna go see your basket and let momma record us?" As usual, Reese was calm and quiet and taking it all in while picking up each item and showing it to the video camera. Raygan-Elise wanted in Reese's basket and at first wasn't concerned with hers. Her main concern was the chocolate Reese's eggs. She has learned quickly how to tear the aluminum off of those! Mass was great and we only had to walk Raygan-Elise out once. But there were so many children that this week she just blended in with all the other sounds, and Reese read some of his picture Bible that the Easter Bunny brought! Then, we had a great lunch and well deserved nap! Then, came annual outside pictures, egg dying (Reese choose the camo dying kit this year) and building of the Easter House (which Anna bought to do with him but couldn't because she couldn't find a mixer). I hope you all had a Happy Easter! Wished we all lived much closer to each other!
