Easter Weekend

Our Easter weekend started out with a 1st birthday party for our nephew, Eilam, on Saturday. I totally forgot I had my camera with me until it was drawing to a close and my Grandmas wanted a picture with Ellie and Eilam.

Easter Sunday morning was spent going to my parent's church Battle Creek Friends Church. They decided to join all three services into one and held the service at Harper Creek High School's auditorium. It was a really neat and I heard something like 900 people were there total. After church we headed to Schuler's for an amazing Easter brunch. Ellie fell asleep on the way there holding her Easter bunny.

Brunch was followed by an afternoon at the Yeck's house, complete with an Easter egg hunt with LOADS of eggs hidden for the kids to find. This was Ellie's first Easter egg hunt and she had so much fun. She followed my cousin's daughter, Lauren, everywhere and the two of them found tons of eggs. Ellie insisted on carrying her own basket the whole time too.

Needless to say, it was a fun, jam-packed weekend. Ellie was exhausted from all the activities and slept in until 9:30 this morning!
