easter 2012

We had the perfect weather, plenty of easter candy, a very fancy decorated table (fancy meaning picked weeds from three little boys sprinkled all over our table outside), a delicious barbecue with my sister, an easter egg hunt with some favorite cousins, getting creative with dying eggs, a great message at church, and some beautiful videos watched on the computer. 

Awesome.

It was a good thing Levi had such a willing brother to share because that outfit was way too restrictive.



One of my favorite things about Easter are the signs of spring, the newness of life it brings, the warm sun on my face, the laughter of kids outside, rolling down the window as we drive around town, opening the windows of our house to capture the fresh smell of outside, watching the plants wake up from their long winter nap, hearing the birds chirp and the bees buzzing, and seeing the vibrant colors of nature everywhere I go. I love Easter.
