Easter 2007 Continued . .

 

I figure we might as well finish Easter of 2007 before moving on to this year.

Here's a shot of the kids Easter Baskets on the mantle, the first Easter morning in our first house.

From left to right: Smiley, LuLu, YaYa.

The kids (naturally) woke up at the crack of dawn to raid the baskets. Note all the unpacked boxes in the background; this is also long before Lisa painted the picture that hangs above the fireplace.

The baskets included 'donations' from the grandparents. The girls, esp. Lu, received Princess themed items, while Smiley got his share of Spiderman.

The set of 'carrots' in the background of some of these pics is a Easter bowling set, with carrots as pins.

Poor Smiley . . there are so many pictures to humilate him with when he's older. These bunny ears were featured in a nekked bunny pose we had professionally done for YaYa four years prior.

In the afternoon it was on to my Mom's house. That's their dog Cocoa, which just happens to be one of the first words both Lu and YaYa ever spoke. For years it was their all-purpose word for 'dog'.

Their has to be kieabalsa, of course, and blessed bread, and coarse horseradish . . .the girls love kieabalsa.

Granted, it's a year later, but from what I remember it was a very nice Easter!

    Lovely family... the food looks great, but my oh my, look at all those dishes and pans piling up in the background. Ugh! I wonder who the dishwasher in the family is? Your Easter celebration is filled with family! Great memories being collected here. bea
