easter recap

since i knew i was leaving town on tuesday, i didn't really plan much for easter. since i live far away from family, i figured it would be like any other sunday. i did make these cute these take homes for the little tykes at church. thank you pinterest.

one of my favorite families, the larsens, invited me over for dinner. i always enjoy time with them. they are the most welcoming and generous people i know. i was entirely unprepared for the fun we had.
imagine standing around talking waiting for the last person to arrive for dinner, and all of a sudden you see this out the window.

the easter bunny showed up at easter dinner. cute little lincoln wasn't sure what to think about the bunny, but mostly he liked it.

the larsens got easter candy for the orphan adopted extended family children

after dinner we went around the neighborhood with the easter bunny for some visits. the reactions were priceless. i really haven't laughed that hard in a long time.

after the neighbor visits, we came back in for the most delicious dessert

  thanks so much to the larsens and the easter bunny for helping me actually celebrate this year.
along with the fun day, i took advantage of the #becauseofhim challenge. each day the week leading up to easter there was a prompt helping me to acknowledge Jesus more in my life. the week was super crazy, and the timing of the photo challenge was perfect. search the hashtag on social media if you need a little mood booster.
how was your easter? did you spend it with family/friends/the easter bunny?
