The Family of an IRONMAN

Easter Sunday

We started off the morning by Lane waking us up. Lane is so much like Aunt Bamber. Every holiday morning Amber would wake up not only way before me but also before my parents.

Here he is opening his basket while standing on the couch!



The Easter Bunny Gave Lane a bright blue shirt.

And a new movie!


Then it was time to wake Bella.



Wow lots of stuff for Bella. Shorts, candy, and Bee Movie.



This is where Bella is like Mommy. Remember Lane is like Bamber, bright eyed and bushy tailed. Bella is so tired that after looking at her basket she has to lay down again.


Lanerbugs and Bella.


Then it was off to Cook Springs to have church with Mom and Dad. This is Maddison, Lane, Logan and Bella after church.


Our Happy Family. We are so blessed.



Our tradition is to do one serious picture and then a silly picture for Lane.



Poppa and Gi Gi with the kiddos.



Me and the best husband in the WORLD!



That evening we had Easter supper/Birthday party for Grandma and Susan. This is Lane and Cooper opening their Easter buckets from Paw Paw and Mi Mi.



The boys enjoyed shooting bubbles at eachother with their new bubble guns from Mi Mi.


Bella admiring her My Little Ponies and matching coloring book.

Sorry for such a LONG post... this post was as LONG as our day was. We had a wonderful Easter celebrating with family and friends. I am so thankful for all of the blessing he has given our family, but most of all I am thankful that HE IS RISEN!

I love all these pics! Avery is sooooo you when you were little, just like you said! I call her Kari half the time. Lane is growing so tall and handsome! What a great day it was for our families!

Those pictures are great! I'm so glad Lane is the early riser like I was! Poor little Bella was too tired to go through her Easter basket...So funny!

That WAS a long day! It looks like you all had a great time, though. I love the picture of Bella curled up on the floor next to her Easter goodies. And, of course, the silly picture is too cute!
