Easter Sunday

This Easter, Grandma Allen started a fun new tradition- Easter pajamas!  All of the pajamas had the kids' names on them along with their grandchild number.  For example, Tori is the oldest grandchild, so hers had a one on it.  The kids looked so adorable, so we tried to get a few pictures of them all together.  This is what most of them looked like:
 But them we had a few gems, like this one:
 And this one: (I just wish we could see Linken- then it would be perfect!)
Easter morning felt much like Christmas- we all got so spoiled!  Garrett loved playing with his new Mater truck!
Grandma and Grandpa Allen picked out the most fantastic new clothes for us! (Again- we were spoiled!)
 Garrett and Grayson showing off their new duds!
 Oh, I just love the facial expressions in this one...
 and in this one, too! Tori and Linken both looked adorable!!!
 Our beautiful little lady- her dress couldn't have been more perfect!!! (And the matching shoes were to die for!)
 Tori had a grand time dancing with Grandma's Easter Bunnies!
Just like last year, we were in Texas for the blooming of the Bluebonnets.  So, after church we went to attempt a few family pictures.  And yeah, none of the family ones turned out very good.  But we did get a few fun fun ones!
Daddy and Garrett checking out the Bluebonnets!

Mommy and Garrett- I so love this Texas tradition!
I always love Easter!  I love watching the Earth come alive again and the feel of newness all around me.  And this year, I love that we have been able to share this special day with family!  I love that Tori and Garrett got to spend the day with great grandparents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins!  It made celebrating the Atonement of our Savior that much more special.  For through that Atonement, we can have our families with us forever!  What a most wonderful and amazing gift we have been given!  Happy Easter!!!
