Easter - PartII

Easter morning was fun for all us when Caroline got out of bed and found her Easter basket - I love how it doesn't take much to really excite her. The Easter bunny left her some pink M&Ms, a new Miss Pattycake movie, a couple of little books, and some finger nail polish - one purple and three shades of pink, of course!!These azaleas were the only flowers blooming in our yard due to the freeze/frost we had earlier in the week. That was okay with Caroline though, all she really needed in these Easter pictures was that Easter basket. She wanted it (with everything placed just right)in every picture we took. Just look... Even though she was very busy adjusting the basket to be "just right", Jamey and I did manage to get some pretty good pictures where you can actually see her sweet little face and pretty little dress. She even sang "Alive" (which is ranking right up there with Jesus Loves Me, ABCs, and Away in a Manger these days) for me and Daddy out of her "hymn" book.Then she wanted her picture made with Daddy. He tried to pick her up and hold her, but that wouldn't do because she wouldn't be standing beside her basket. So he just squatted down beside her, but the basket didn't make it into this one......or this one either.Since we were ready for church and had a little time to spare, we went by Mother and Daddy's to see if anyone would take a family photo. Aunt KS did and tried very hard to get a good one for us, but...Caroline was already tired of picture taking (notice how she is reclining/laying back onto my face), she wanted to eat the piece of CHOCOLATE candy her Daddy had to open right before the picture, and Jamey was complaining about how hot he was going to be in a long-sleeved shirt in April ("who makes long-sleeved shirts for the spring anyway???").

We did manage to get a decent one and it may be next Easter before we have another to share!!!
