Easter Pictures!

No, you don't need glasses. Practically every picture I took was OUT OF FOCUS!!! I think I had it on the "bright outdoors" setting from the previous day taking pictures of Natalie in the sun (those pictures to post next). Bummer. Anyway, here are a few to share. If you think they look strange it's because I had to manually sharpen the pictures so they would be at least somewhat viewable.

Easter Sunday started off right by going to Sacrament meeting. Alisa, Spencer, and Ashleigh joined us. After church we headed over to Lee's house for Easter dinner. Yummy! Alisa made the most delicious strawberry cheesecake, too. I think I actually saw my thighs growing as I ate it!

After dinner and some relax time in the back yard, we headed over to the Narducci's for their Easter dinner. Before dinner, however, we had our annual Easter Egg Hunt. This year was so fun because we had a smaller hunt for Natalie and Lucas out front in the Narducci's courtyard.

It only took Natalie a couple of eggs to find out that she didn't need our help to find the rest of them. Smart girl. She had a blast going from one egg to another. I think she knew that the more she found the less Lucas would find!



"Oh baby" she's saying. "Wait until you see how many eggs I have in this bucket!"


"Cool, a separate basket of toys to pick from that were too big to fit into eggs! Grandpa and Grandma Narducci are AWESOME!"


After filling her Easter bucket full of eggs and toys, Natalie was trying to get the attention of some of the Missionaries joining us for Easter dinner. It looked like she wanted to share her toys with them. What a good girl!


However, once she realized that there were no more eggs to find, she was outta there!


"I wonder if there are more eggs hidden in the back yard."


Well, there were more eggs hidden in the back yard hidden specially for us older "kids". Here are the Missionaries doing their best to find Easter eggs. Aren't they cute? I should send this photo to their parents!


Don't we look silly counting our eggs! What's worse about this picture is that it shows that I was wearing Natalie's bunny ears headband. Honestly, I did feel like I was at least 20 years younger that night!


While I was busy counting my eggs, Mike was being a good dad and showing Natalie some of her new toys from the hunt.


And after all that hunting we were served the yummiest dinner! Thanks to all of those who were involved in preparing it!

"Yummy, yummy. I have Easter dinner in my tummy!"


We hope you all had as good of an Easter as we did!

Sounds like you guys had a fun time at the Narducci's. That is awesome.

So, in response to Amy...No, I didn't take a single picture. I am a bum, I know!
