I hope you all had a great Easter! We had a wonderful time celebrating God's gift to us with church on Sunday morning, then we spent the rest of the day with family. I was telling Bobby about Jesus and how he died, but we shouldn't be sad because he is alive. He then repeated to me, very excitedly: 'He's ALIVE! He's ALIVE!'. It was so cute!! I've started having Bobby pray to Jesus whenever he is scared, which is a lot lately, he's going through a stage, I guess.. He hasn't said a prayer himself yet, but he closes his eyes real tight and folds his hands together and says 'AMEN!'. I can't wait to see him grow in his relationship with Christ.
We made some cascarones (confetti eggs)! Bobby had a great time with his cousins. I think this will be a tradition I will keep doing, even after we leave Laredo. It was so fun! We began saving eggs months ago, so we had 30 dozen!! I thought it was too many, but it wasn't! There were so many of us running around, it was just the right amount.
Bobby and Lily's Easter baskets. They each got a Bible (this one for Lily, and this one for Bobby) which I can't wait to start reading to them. They also each got a bathing suit (Another tradition I am starting. I borrowed the idea from Erin W.) Bobby's basket unintentionally had a pirate theme. His bathing suit had a skull on it, he got a pirate potato head, and a ball with skulls on it also. He loved the potato head! I wish I would have gotten a picture of his reaction when he saw it. It was priceless. 
Hunting for eggs! All the eggs had $$ in them. Bobby got a total of $6! He put it all into his piggy bank. So fun!
Someday I will have a good family picture on Easter. I wanted to get one before we left for church, but Bobby was in a mood, so it didn't happen. This one will have to do! Lily was napping...oh well!
Me and my princess!
He loved cracking the eggs onto his own head! Silly Bobby!!
I hope you all had a great Easter!! Oh- did I mention I made Lily's Easter dress? Go take a look at it on my other blog, sweet stitches!
