Easter Picture Parade

Our little Veronika absolutely LOVED dressing up for Easter. Unfortunately here in Michigan we also had to wear the winter coats! A week before it was in the 70s. She just turned 3 in Feb and we will celebrate our 2 year anniversary as a family on May 23rd. I can't believe how fast nearly 2 years have flown by!

Such cute little girls! Easter dresses are so much more fun than little boy clothes! We went pretty casual this year b/c Jaxon is going through a picky phase!

I put a picture of him with the Easter bunny on another thread. This one is of him after his Easter Egg Hunt. He won 3rd prize so he is holding his basket and his prize basket.

It was a lot of fun!

I quickly snapped this picture not realizing that Maddie was kissing the bunny right on the nose. LOL! (that's her cousin holding the bunny).

All the kids are sooooo cute and have grown so much too! BTW: I love Drew's outfit-too handsome!

Of course, I'm in.

Here's my cuties, another two who love to be dressed up and wear shoes "that make noise" as my oldest likes to call them! And can you guess they love to pose for the photos. LOL
