Easter 2014

Our church had an Eggs and Ice Cream event for the preschoolers. Big Brother got to tag along.

Pony rides!

Noah's egg hunt at school.  On your mark...get set...

Go!!

Resurrection Sunday!

Oh. My.

Nana and pawpaw got to spend the weekend with us and see daddy sing at the Good Friday service.

Elli loves a twirly dress!

:)

Time out to play with a roly poly.

More twirling.

After nap, we went over to memaw and pappaw's house to have Easter dinner with my family.  My grandma, aunts, uncle and brother and his family all came.  It was the first time my mom has hosted Easter (in forever and ever anyway) we had such a fun time!
Baby Easton surprised Brandon by hitting the first pitch.

Elli was content to sit and hold "baby Hallie Wose" (Rose).

Hunting eggs.

Aunt Phyllis getting some baby Hallie snuggles.

Helping pappaw with baby Hallie.  My sweet little nurturer. 

Gentle

Sweet Elli was chosen as the Kid of Character for her class in March.  The character trait for March was Gentleness.  :)

Noah got the same award when he was in Pre-K.
I'd say that's a pretty good character trait to possess!

But let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God's sight is very precious. 1 Peter 3:4

Peach Princess

This picture of me at age 4 hangs in the hallway at my parent's house. My mom MADE it when I was a little flower girl for the FHA banquet at Owasso H.S. where my mom taught.  I can't remember if Ellianna was asking about the dress or what, but memaw got it out of the attic and gave it to Elli.  She LOVES this dress.

She wanted to pose like me.  :)

Sitting "like a princess".

She wears it while she cooks.

While she battles a Clone Trooper.

With Elsa's cape.

She even asked to wear it to Target a couple weeks ago.  I said, sure. Ha!
