Easter 2010

I know, I know, Easter was a week ago, but- I find I've been taking so many pictures of the babies these days, and I've been keeping myself so busy, that uploading and editing gets pushed under the rug with the rest of my leftover chores, and before I know it, my camera battery is dead and I've got 800 pictures of tiny toes and ladybugs to sort through.

Of course, I want to share every picture that I take of everything with you, but I would probably crash all of your computers and send my blog shooting off into a photo album cluttered black hole somewhere in outer space. So to prevent that from happening, I cropped my favorite pictures, only giving you bits and pieces (facebook friends, i'll still be crashing your computers with the real deal), and keeping this here blog anchored down for the time being.


Our Easter was beautiful. The Easter bunny had come the night before (thanks to the magical Easter Bunny food that we had set out for him, I'm sure), so we woke up bright and early, hopped out of bed bunny style, ran downstairs to discover wonderful baskets filled with new sippy cups, Barenstein Bear books, Pooh DVDs, and lots and lots of beautiful flowers to plant together later in the day. We quickly put on pretty pink dresses and cozy blue bunny suits, wagged our floppy ears and cotton tails out the front door, and into the yard we scattered to find precious eggs filled with brightly colored chocolate treats and pennies for our piggy banks.

This was the first year that both of the babies really got to experience this holiday. Last year Eleanore didn't quite understand what all of the hub bub was about, and Charlie was only a few months old- we didn't do an egg hunt here at home. This year, Elie being fully aware of all magical creatures and their important roles in the universe, we had to go all out.

Smiles on faces and happy hearts.

This was the most beautiful Easter that I've ever experienced. Watching my babies grow, mixed with memories of my own childhood- it all came together to create the very most perfect day ever.

...ever.

Flashback Friday- Christopher's Shadow

Tia's had to much sun today so I will be blogging today (This is Christopher). She won't even be editing this post so please excuse the errors I am sure to make.


I took this picture of myself and my brother while waiting for a plane in the Boise airport. We were flying to California to see my dad... my brother was living there with him and I lived with my mom in Boise at the time. Up until then my brother and I had pretty much been inseparable but you can tell from our hair how much we had changed (that's me on the right). Even though we're a lot different still, we're still brothers.

************************* (I copy and pasted this from a post Tia did last week) Play along with us! Post an older picture, with a little blurb to go with it of course, and then add your link to the list below. Make sure to link back here to this post, either with our Flashback button (waaayyy down there at the bottom of the page), or old fashioned text link, and hopefully your readers and my readers will combine, and the blogisphere will be taken over by flashbacks! MUAHAHAH! ...sorry.
