Yep - this first pic is of very excited kids and a delusional mommy. She thought it would be great to take the kids to a Helicopter drop. The helicopter flies over and drops the eggs all over the field in front of you. Sounds great in theory and seems super exciting (see smiling faces). It was Not anything we imagined.
Yes, the bunny showed up and yes, the helicopter did their job. Afterwards was sheer chaos! Talk about the best way to lose a child and have them ending up in tears. Never again, Amy... Never again. In fact, I am documenting this in our blog to remind myself that although the pics look great - it was nothing what we expected.
So... we still have smiling kids, but there is something different - they seem a little crazier than before the helicopter drop. I'm just saying...
A chance to redeem myself. Bass Pro had a egg hunt through their store. Yup, more our speed. The kids hunted for eggs as we shopped for new toys (no, we did not buy a 4 wheeler). We even got to do an art project - super fun and super laid back. Now, this is what true happiness looks like.
No Easter is complete without dying Easter eggs! We had a ton of fun making Minons. Anyone else seeing a pattern for 2015? Minons were all the rage! Years from now, Kasey and Karsten will ask me what the heck a Minon is, but for now... just know that my kiddos love them.
Easter service was beautiful and our kids really enjoyed joining us in church. After, we decided to take some family photos. What a cute bunch! Can you say "Christmas Card?!" ... no, not the crazy one ~ the sweet photos that follow that one.

He Has Risen, Indeed!
