This year was our first Easter with Max but also it was our first Easter not with family! We have been so busy lately that we didn't exactly have time to think about Easter very much until this weekend but we really started to miss family easter egg hunts and little kids and just the spirit of Easter. For our own little family to celebrate I put all the things my mom sent us for Max in a basket- and bought marshall a reeses bunny and we called it good. We filled eggs with the little puffs that maxs loves and i hid the eggs in the middle of the night. In the morning Marsh carried max around the house to help him find each egg and he loved hitting them together and eating the outsides. and like a typical baby- his favorite things on easter were the tags on his new clothes and the easter basket :)
Last night for Easter we got together with a group of friends for possibly the most delicious meal i have eaten all year. everything is incredible! Max loved watching all the kids run around and we loved visiting with friends and eating good food! We had a egg hunt- max found some more eggs but didn't really care. I feel like holidays right now are more for me- and because they are his first- the will get more fun later when he knows whats going on.
eating outside in the - almost- wam weather! but it was beautiful! And everyone hunting for eggs!
The boys sat around talking about sports of course! and the easter cake pops chels and I made for all the little kids!
We missed family, but were grateful for good friends and we had a great Easter feeling thankful for our Savior's atonement, spring and the symbols of new beginnings.
