Easter Weekend

Holy Week and Easter weekend are always a little crazy around here seeing as how Matt's a pastor and all :) I think my other pastor's wife friends will agree that about mid-week you wonder how you'll make it through the rest of the week! But somehow, we always do :)

On Thursday Charlotte and I were able to participate in the family Maundy Thursday service, which was really special. It's a rare day when we get to worship all together. I'm looking forward to next year when we will be able to worship with all FOUR of us!

Saturday was the Easter Egg Hunt! It was really so much fun. Charlotte clearly had no clue what was going on, but she was happy to be outside with her friends. She did pick up one egg, which was more than I was expecting :) My father-in-law, Kerwin, came up for dinner that night which was such a nice treat! After dinner he and Charlotte exchanged silly noises and faces. It was pretty cute :)

Happy with her egg selection :)

Silly noises with Grandad

And some silly faces, too!

Sunday was great! Matt's sermon was wonderful, per usual :) and Charlotte looked precious in her yellow swiss dot dress! After church the three of us went to lunch at the Matthews' home (Elizabeth Duffin's parents). The food and the company were equally wonderful :) Charlotte missed her afternoon nap, but was cheerful and "talkative" the entire time. Mrs. Matthews even bought Charlotte a mini version of her bunny that she sleeps with. She was super excited and snuggled with it during lunch. It was pretty adorable :) All in all, it was a great first Easter for Miss Charlotte! I hope that you and your family had a blessed Easter, too!
