Easter!!!

We had a really nice, smooth Easter morning.  It helped that we decided to go to the 11:00 service, so we weren't rushing to get ready:)  This year we didn't talk about the Easter bunny at all.  Not really on purpose, but we started doing the Resurrection Eggs with Beau, and he loved them so much, it was SO easy for that to be our focus.  Which is the way it should be.  So, on Easter morning I'm not really sure what he thought???  But he was thrilled to find his basket full of stuff, no matter!
 Beau is candy crazy.  He would live on a steady diet of candy and gum everyday if we would let him!
 Blake got a Duck Dynasty t-shirt.  Every boy needs at least one, right?
 NaNa had sent Easter gifts the day before, so the boys were excited to see those too!
 Blake immediately got a Sharpie out and wrote his name on all his good stuff.  He wanted to be sure that no one else tried to eat it.  Ha!
 My handsome boys!!!
 Awesome.....just being real.
 Travis and his boys!
 My boys and me!!
 We went over to Nonnie and Poppy's after church for lunch.  The table was so spring-y and beautiful!!  The boys all had presents sitting on their plates from Nonnie & Poppy.
 Lunch was delicious....ham, hash brown potato casserole, asparagus, croissants, fruit salad, and pound cake with strawberries for dessert!! 
 After lunch, the boys started talking about shooting and the next thing we know, Poppy is teaching Evan how to load a new clip at the table.  Really???
It was a pretty intense lesson:)
 It was beautiful outside so we sat out on the deck and looked at the lake.  The boys did some target shooting off the deck.  Beau LOVES the swing.  He sat in the swing and ate A LOT of jelly beans.
 Sweet thing!  Unfortunately, about 2 hours after he started his jelly bean gorge, they all came back up:(  It was his first time to throw up and he totally freaked out.  Bummer!
But, he did get in a little target practice before the throw-up;)  THIS is a scary picture!!  But,  I LOVE that my dad loves to do stuff like this with the boys!  They have so much fun "playing" with Poppy!
 I love this picture!  Doing a little fishing off the dock.
 Beau couldn't be left out!
 And, a family pic of everyone!  LOVE it!
It was a great Easter.  I loved that we were able to focus on Jesus's death and resurrection.  Teaching a little one brings everything back into focus.  As Beau loves to say...HE IS ALIVE!!!!
