Easter Recap

Easter was only two days ago, but Lacie is already busy saying "Easter's All Done" and asking what comes next!!!  It's funny how children measure time based around special family holidays!  We had a great and super simple Easter Brunch at our house!  I was busy running around and cooking, so I did not get as many pictures as I would have liked, which is usually the case.  But I did manage to capture some egg hunt fun and Easter Basket opening!

As I was looking at my pictures from the day, I realized that this is Lacie's third and Blakely's second Easter.  I decided to look back at Easter's past...and I was amazed at how much they have grown in such a short amount of time!

Lacie's first, second, and third Easters!  I can remember her first Easter like it was yesterday! She was only seven months old!  John and I already knew that I was pregnant with sweet Blakely Hope...but nobody else knew that little secret for a few more weeks!  What I remember most about Lacie's second Easter is how much she loved the egg hunt!  That was also true this year! 

Blakely's first and second Easter!  I actually cannot believe how much bigger Blakely is only a year later!  During Blakely's first Easter, she slept through the egg hunt!  Now, she is trying as hard as she can to keep up with her big sister...in every aspect from talking to climbing on the jungle gym at the playground!  On Easter Sunday, Blakely tried to carry as many eggs as her little arms could! 

*The days are long but the years are short*  

I have heard this saying so many times, and you never realize how true it is until you have children! 

And just for fun...our pictures with the Easter Bunny!  Lacie loved the Easter Bunny as a baby!  But she wasn't quite as thrilled the following year.  Where is 2014's bunny picture you might ask....well neither child would go anywhere near him!  I think it's safe to say that we are over the bunny pictures until we are a bit older! 

For Easter brunch I served my Sausage Egg & Cheese Casserole, which is always a hit!  You can find the recipe here! 

I also made these awesome Orange Creamsicle Cookies!

There were a few other treats at Easter Brunch, and those recipes will be posted later this week!
