Easter 2010

Although we didn't get to be around family again this Easter, we still had a good time with the kids. We went to church on Saturday night and tried to get pictures of them in their outfits before we left. We have a nice pictorial series of the two boys together, the two boys with a screaming Gabriella, Graham throwing Gabriella off his lap, and the two boys plus my arm (rescuing Gabriella). Who needs a video camera? Here's the one before Gabriella's departure:



The next morning was Easter, and we had the kids go out into the yard and "find" their baskets. Gabriella just sat on my lap and squinted into the sun.



Baby C was excited by his animal crackers and never noticed anything else. Graham discovered his bag of "digadigadees", which is how he pronounces jellybeans, and then busied himself with Baby C's basket.



All in all, it was more successful than last year, when Graham just barked at the neighbor's dog.

That afternoon, we went to a friend's house for dinner and an egg hunt. Again, Gabriella squinted, Baby C was fixated on one thing, and Graham was more interested in everyone else's basket. Here he is a moment before he ran off with his friend Lincoln's bunny:



Hope you all had a happy Easter as well!

...which is now mostly about the kids.
