Easter {part 1}

Easter part 2 will be coming as soon as I grab my small camera from the diaper bag...it's a long trip from the kitchen the to computer. :) We had a great Easter morning with Easter baskets opening for the kids. I did find myself wondering how Easter candy made it into the celebration of Jesus's resurrection...but candy for all nonetheless. Addie has a huge sweet tooth (not sure where she got that...just kidding) so she was eating jelly beans within one minute of looking at the basket. Brody loves stuffing anything in his mouth so he was eating his stuffed animal with seconds of seeing it.

After the sweets, we rushed to get dressed since we were hoping to make it to church early. Hoping is the key word. Like any hormonal new mother, I found myself a little teary eyed on the way to church due to the hustle and bustle of things. I felt like my focus was more on getting our family beautified instead of our hearts in the right place. Sigh...the life of being a mom. After church we headed the amazing Jelso house for a long, great afternoon of food, talking and kids playing. Praise the Lord, the Crank family is back in California so we all got to be together for this holiday. We are blessed with our Paso family and love them all.
