a very special sunday indeed!

we had a fabulous family easter sunday! it was just an all-around perfect day. sunday morning at emmaus with our wonderful church community, celebrating the risen king! then we were off to chico to spend the day with my family. my mom and her husband, mike, have a beautiful home in chico that has lots of space for the kids to play. the cousins had loads of fun! my mom cooked a turkey and we all brought sides. stephanie brought eggs for the kids to hide in the backyard. it was a little tricky because they have a swimming pool...a little dangerous for my curious kaden. dana brought his washer toss game that he made. that kept the boys busy. the weather was so delightful so we spent most of the day outside. it was so relaxing...the pomegranate margaritas made it even more enjoyable! i love spending time with my family and it makes me so happy when we spend holidays together. looking forward to going back on mother's day and creating more memories together!

cute as can be in their easter outfits.
i saw this shirt at old navy for kaden, but didn't want to pay full price.  i went back later and they had one left in his size on clearance for $6!  

i made this flower clip for kyri to match her dress that nana bought for her.  

new pink salt water sandles.  
ready for summer!

going through their easter baskets.
full of fun surprises!
kaden was only interested in the jelly beans.

the washers game was a huge hit.

devin and kevin were on a team together.
hey, their names are almost the same!

love the way the sun is making them glow.

kaden is obsessed with phones.
he thinks they are just the coolest toys.

thank you, Jesus, for this wonderful man.

good looking bunch.
