Group pics of the kids!

After recovering from my fabulous week in England, it was time to settle back into the 'real world' and get ready to celebrate Easter.

Easter is a time to celebrate God's amazing gift to mankind in the form of his risen Son. It is also time for the children to enjoy getting ready for the Easter Bunny's visit. This always includes photo-ops for days.

During our Easter festivities we had the brilliant idea to get six kids eight and under in age to pose for a few good pics in decent clothes. This was a larger undertaking than we estimated. The dogwood trees and flowers were just starting to bloom so we wanted to take advantage of the beautiful Spring colors and gets pics outside...however there are SO many distractions outside - especially for the little ones. After running off about 50+ pics we got about 5-8 decent ones. Thank heavens for digital cameras and that ever-favorite 'delete' button. I am posting the cutest ones with everyone actually looking at the camera!
