Easter

We celebrated Easter at our house on Sunday. The girls woke up (one earlier than the other - KELLY) to find the easter bunny came! They were both excited to find their basket filled with goodies! After breakfast we headed to church for a service where BOTH girls were actually PRETTY GOOD!!! Amazing! We came back to our house where our meal was already cooking. We had a big group this year.....my Mom and Michael were here along with ALL of Brian's family....and I literally mean almost ALL of them! (Although that doesn't amount to a ton of people, it was nice having Brian's aunts with us along with his brother and girlfriend that we got to meet for the first time!) We had a nice meal followed by an easter egg hunt for the two girls. We were even able to play a couple games of scattergories with the entire group too! A fun- filled easter day at the Snyder house!

Kelly & Molly made sure the carrots were set out for the easter bunny!

The Easter Bunny filled two special little girls baskets!

Kelly all smiles with her basket!

(Notice....it is STILL DARK outside!!! This is at 6am....she woke up at 5:15am, but we told her she had to go back to bed. She stayed in her room until she saw a "6" on her clock first (she is getting too smart in preschool)...and came back into our room. She NEVER fell back asleep! This girl doesn't sleep in the mornings! This is the only picture I took of her.....as I was still kind of out of it and not feeling the greatest!)

Molly looking at her goodies at a more reasonable time.....8am!!! (and it's light out too!) She was so excited to get a "little baby" like her friend Bella.

Molly was also excited to get a Scooby Doo DVD....she loves Scooby!

(Kelly got the Tangled DVD)

The girls after church

Easter presents from Grandma & Papa Murray

Opening is so much fun!

Molly opened an egg first and found chocolate dipped pretzels....she stopped there and didn't open anything else until she finished her pretzel.

The second thing Molly pulled out of her bag was an Elmo recordable book that SHE LOVES! She looked at it and was mesmerized right away (AND STILL IS!) We hear it over the monitor and is sounds like Grandma and Papa are in our house every night......the batteries might die soon!

Kelly got a Disney Princess recordable book that she loves too!

(Good thing she doesn't have a monitor in her room anymore!)

Both girls LOVE their special personalized books.....and they couldn't be more perfect for them right now....ELMO & DISNEY PRINCESS!

(Kelly made egg shaped place cards for everyone....she was really proud of them as she wrote everyones names and put lots of stickers on them and cut them out in egg shapes too!)

The girls all dressed in comfy clothes ready for the easter egg hunt. While Uncle Dave was hiding eggs they were able to open their presents from Grandma and Papa Snyder.

Molly got a Scooby Doo stuffed animal that she LOVES!

She set him right beside her while she looked at everything else in her bag!!! Too cute!

Kelly pointing and reaching for the purple egg high up in the lilac bush.....Uncle Dave hid it too high!!!!

Molly wanted Grandma Peggy's help!!!

The girls had a great time finding all the eggs!

Crystal (Uncle Dave's girlfriend) playing with Kelly's new popper game. Kelly LOVES Crystal because she played with her so much all day.....and she's really nice too!

Crystal showing Molly how to play.....and Scooby Doo is close by too!

We hope everyone had a wonderful EASTER!

The only thing that would have made mine better.........is not being sick with strep throat! I went to the doctor Monday morning and the rapid strep test came back positive. I'm still on medication....but feeling A LOT BETTER NOW!!!
