1st Easter

                                                 

Karis' 1st Easter was full of excitement!  On Good Friday, she had an egg hunt at school, which was so cute!!  They laid out eggs all over the floor and let the babies crawl after them.  Karis wasn't crawling just yet, but was able to scoot around enought to grab 2 eggs, one for each hand.  Once she had an egg in each hand, she was happy and didn't care about the rest of the eggs.  Here are some pics of the hunt.


Friday evening my mom, brother, and sister-in-law came to visit.  Well, it wasn't really a visit, but to help.  I had been sick all week and needed to sleep, and Mike had been super busy with school and stuff.  They were so sweet to come to the rescue!  They cleaned, watched Karis while I slept and rested, and stalked us up on groceries.  It was so helpful!!!  I miss my family so, so much!  Y'all are such a HUGE BLESSING! Thanks again guys!


On Easter Sunday, we went to church.  Karis was all dolled up in pink and black with some adoreable shoes that her Uncle Dustin & Aunt Colleen bought her.  We usually keep her with us during praise and worship because we want her exposed to it, and she LOVES music.  This Sunday we didn't; the church was too crammed with people.  We even got there extra early so we could get a good seat.  (They even had 22 services!) So, I took her to the nursery instead of in the service with us for worship.  After worship was over and the message had just started, her number flashed up on the screen for me to come and get her.  (It's kind of like an SOS.)  She was bawling her eyes out and the workers said that they couldn't get her calmed down, which is so unlike her.  I went and picked her up, and she immediately stopped crying.  :)  So, I decided to take her back in the service with me so I could listen to the message and sit with my handsome husband.  She was SO good.  I guess she missed coming in there with us for a while.
