Family & eggs.

This was Alain’s first Easter in America and our first Easter with a child. We wanted to make sure that the focus was on the real reason for celebration, that Jesus came to earth, gave his life for us and rose again to cover our sin and give us all new life. The week leading up to Easter Sunday, we read a section of the Bible that corresponded with that day in Jesus’ life on the first Easter week. Friday, the three of us watched The Passion of the Christ and had a really great talk. Sunday was spent at church and with family. I did buy a bit (ok, probably too much!) candy and we had an egg hunt. I don’t know that the egg hunt is going to be a something we do every year, we are still figuring this all out. Here are some photos of our family get-together.

Our egg hunters. Aunt Casey, Uncle Travis and Alain.

My Momma :)

In Texas, you can’t have an egg hunt without cascarones (Eggs filled with confetti that you crack on an unsuspecting friend).

On the left, Alain rubbing it in that he found the golden egg :)

A negotiation for the golden egg by Aunt Casey, he didn’t fall for it :)

I LOVE this photo! Chris’ dad “hid” an egg under his chin, Alain non-nonchalantly walks by to find it. Makes my heart so happy to see the evidence of our families loving Alain like we do.

The whole crazy bunch. Love these people. Love, love, love.
