Alleluia! Alleluia! He has risen as He said!!

after i carefully narrowed it down to thirty-something pictures... looking at them wore me out!

~happy easter 2012~

this has truly been a beautiful easter season with endless amounts of blessings around us!
we started our holy saturday evening out in bc.
we love being out there,  actually    l o v e   is an understatement.


jack, we felt like we didn't see much of you.  you spent all the time you could with your cousins.
we spent the evening celebrating dana's birthday (which was actually on good friday). 



and had lots and lots of yummy birthday cake!


before i realized it was way past your bedtime buddy, we realized we still hadn't decorated the eggs!


granny showed you how to color on an egg for the first time!


we then put you straight to bed!  after a much needed nights rest, you woke up to a very  f u l l  easter basket!



"hmmm... what's in here?"


we all were able to go to easter sunday mass together and on time! you made it all the way through mass in the front row of the church, well until the Eucharistic liturgy, when you decided to yell "hot-dog" and "hoot-ball"  multiple times.  thank goodness for daddy's quick escape with you.



my two gq's.



the rest of our afternoon was spent with more family and more food!  it was so special! and very filling!
 we definitely missed those who couldn't be there with us, as always. 





















we have had our fill of candy for the year!!!



happy easter!

xxoo

first egg hunt

my. oh. my.  how you have us head over heels for you buddy.











you enjoyed every bit of your first egg hunt.  especially the cookies they gave out afterwards.  we simply couldn't get enough of you either.

xxoo




it's finally time!!

update 2 :  bye bye baby hair,  hello big boy!
+   a new little friend's gender reveal party.


mama and daddy spent an arm and a leg for your first hair cut.  but you know what?  
you didn't cry at all, so to us it was worth it!


but then again why would you cry?  you got to sit in your own car and watch all the elmo, a.k.a. "mo",  you wanted.


no expression. whatsoever. 




look how long we let it go! oh my!


afterwards we went to children's place next door to get you some new summer shirts and shorts!  


playin with the new "hair-did"


later that afternoon we cleaned up and headed out to brazos country for our good friend's new baby's gender reveal party!  
it was our first time to go to a party like this.  it was really adorable!



looks like you get a new girlfriend jack!!




 

oh my you and your puppies!


the next day we spent outside at granny and gramps...



then headed back home to clean up our own yard!  you really can't get enough of the outdoors buddy.  





 or your puppies!

love you buddy 
xxoo
