Easter weekend was a great family time for the Simpson's. We started it off by going to Natalie's birthday party and then to Aunt Linda and Uncle Larry's for dinner and and an Easter egg hunt. That is all these girls could talk about the whole week was hunting Easter eggs and when did they get to do it!
All week I had been practicing with the girls, when I say "He is Risen", they were suppose to respond with, "He is Risen Indeed". Now I thought that not too difficult but apparently for a 4 and 5 year old the concept was a bit confusing! Olivia got it down quickly but didn't manage to help her sisters. By the time Easter rolled around they had it down pretty good!
Sunday morning. of course bought out, the parade of beautifully dressed sisters in matching attire The Three Simpson Girls! How they look forward to dressing up for Easter and still wearing matching clothes. Wonder how much longer that will last? Olivia had been wanting to put on a fashion show, as she calls it, all week with their Easter dresses, but we never got around to it.
Now sitting through church was pretty interesting. There were no Sunday school classes so all of them were in church with us, which was fine during the singing, but once it gets quiet......trouble begins. Emily kept asking why she had to be quiet and finally told her daddy she didn't want to be quiet anymore. Abby on the other hand couldn't sit still, and Olivia was just there in the middle of it all.
After church we headed to Nana and Poppy's for our annual lunch and egg hunt with more cousins.....as always the confetti eggs are the hit of the day. Momma had them when she was a girl and the tradition carries on!
Spending time with family.....nothing beats it!
