Easter Update

Our little beauty. I simply love this picture of her. It shows her sweet genuine spirit. She was overjoyed that Mema came to share special time with her girl before heading out of town for the Easter weekend.

Mema came with special treats & a soft Hallmark bunny. I don't think it really matters what Mema has in her hands, whatever it is, it pleases Gabrielle. She is definitely 100% Mema's girl when she is in her presence.

I found this fun coloring kit at CVS that had foam stickers to make silly animal characters. Gabrielle was placing the stickers in all the wrong places but having a ball doing it.

We had a fantastic quiet Easter Sunday. Gabi helped Daddy make cinnamon rolls for breakfast while Dawson and I slept in a little and then it was off to church. The kids looked so grown up in their Easter best. I "recycled" Gabrielle's princess dress from the father/daughter dance and found Dawson's outfit at a bargain basement price that was too good to be true. I hope the weather stays cool a little longer so he can wear it at least one more time. I love little boys in sweater vests. It gives them such a grown up look.

We hope everyone had a blessed Easter. Gabrielle really soaked in the message of the season and amazed us with many perplexing questions regarding the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. She insists we take her to see the cross on which he died. That will be a fantasy trip that the two of us can look forward to for a long time to come.
