Easter Celebration

We started our Easter Sunday out with attending Church together as a family for the first time since getting home.  Before today one of us has taken Addison while the other one stays home with Tovin.  It was nice to worship together as a family again.  I made sure that I had plenty of snacks, toys, and other distractions with me!  We're happy to say that Tovin did amazing in church and loved it when the choir performed, but by the time church was done he was ready to go!  We were able to get this picture, but he wasn't a happy camper.  Both Addison and Tovin fell asleep on the way home, which is maybe a four mile drive.

 

We went to my mom and dad's for Easter.  Mary came down from the Cities, it was great to see her!  Mom had a wonderful Easter dinner prepared...probably not a typical Easter dinner, but the reuben sandwiches, salad, jello and potatoes were delicious - thank you!  Elizabeth and Addison had grandma teach them how to make survival bracelets.  Both girls caught on real quick...they love to do projects!

Addison and Elizabeth have a very special friendship!  We are very lucky to live so close to them!  I'm sure this summer we will travel the railroad tracks to their home many times!  Thanks Elizabeth for taking care of Addison and playing so well with her!

Jason and Tovin snuck away for a quick nap.  I'm not quite sure why they covered up with a towel, and not with a blanket?

Secretly we all think that Jay likes to inflict pain, but that doesn't stop us from lining up to get our knots worked on by a certified massage therapists!  Thanks Jay for the "relief"?
