He is Risen! We started Easter Sunday with a celebration at church of the resurrection of Jesus. Then after nap, it was time for more kid fun... We met my relatives at the park and Mattie played with my cousins and their kids, as well as, my aunt and uncle, and her grandma and grandpa.
Audrey showed Mattie how to make a "wood-chip cake" and they even included candles of bigger sticks. Mattie enjoyed playing with the "older" girls and is hoping to have a wild imagination when she gets to be their age as well.
There was an easter egg hunt, of course... Mattie seemed to really enjoy collecting the eggs and she couldn't wait to see what was inside each one!
The attempt at the group shot... it is nearly impossible to get that many kids to cooperate for a photo shoot, but it helped that we (the adults) started singing songs ("happy and you know it," "thumbkin") to get their attention.
After a lot of playing at the park and with the other kids, Mattie ended the afternoon by playing ball with daddy. Look at this cute action shot of her cheering him on (click the photo to make it bigger)! Happy Easter everyone!
