Happy Easter!

What a week we've had around here. Spring Break found us all a little grouchy due to Winter weather and colds, but we're all on the mend now and anxiously awaiting the return of school tomorrow. In spite of everything, we still found some time for fun. The kids had a great time at a bowling Birthday party, our house passed inspection, we attended a local Easter egg hunt, Matt and I went to the Cleveland Indians opening day game, and Mommy/Daughter and Daddy/Son dates were held.

This weekend we enjoyed dying Easter eggs, watching the Lamb of God and talking about the real meaning of Easter and devoured quite the feast...for just the 5 of us...which was more like 3 since Ellie and Brady only ate the rolls. Our traditional Easter dinner here consists of Ham with a honey glaze - cooked with pineapple rings and maraschino cherries, roasted asparagus, funeral potatoes, homemade crescent rolls, and strawberry pretzel dessert. We've enjoyed taking some of the heaps of leftovers and sharing it with people who didn't get to enjoy an Easter dinner.

This is a serious job and require a lot of concentration.

So proud of his "dye job."

My mom made the cutest skirts for the girls this year! I think they're adorable!

Grandma Eccles made this handsome boy a tie that coordinated with his sisters skirst, but still looked manly.

Emma had a great time "modeling" for Matt.

Little Posers!
