Easter 2009

Although Easter was a week and a half ago, I wanted to share some pictures of the girls from the day:

Besides church, Easter morning means candy! Like all kids, the girls were eager to discover what the Easter Bunny had put into their baskets. This year, there was more than just chocolate & jelly beans... he included sunglasses, too!

Of course, the kids were called upon to sing for the Easter service. This is how we saw Caroline coming down the aisle; she said that she liked her new sunglasses so much that she wanted to keep them on during church, too!

I didn't know what to make of this look, but Chris said that it okay because it suited her. Even the youth leader, when I asked her why she didn't make her remove them, said "That's just Caroline!" Indeed!

I can tell Jordi's growing up because she wasn't shy at all in front of the congregation, especially here, during singing & dancing to one of my personal favorites, "Lord of the Dance"!

Although the weather was cool & breezy, there was lots of sunshine on Easter Sunday. Filtering through the leaves, it made for pretty lighting for our cousins picture: Emily Ford (age 12), Jordi, Caroline, & Richard Ford (age 14).
