Easter Sunday

today was greta's first easter. easter is another holiday where i am thankful that both of our families live close so that we can celebrate the holiday with everyone. first we headed to Easter mass. greta was a complete angel (pardon the pun) in church. she slept a bit, looked around, and was held by her papa and her great aunt mary. after mass we went to greta's great grandma katie's house for brunch. there were lots of aunts, uncles and cousins there to hang out with. however, greta didn't feel much like hanging out, as she had slept a mere 15 minutes in church. we stayed long enough to grab some food and take a quick picture of greta trying to grab grandma katie's necklace. wish we would've got more photos!!






next we drove to joe's parents house to celebrate with his family. greta slept all the way there and slept for a while longer after we arrived, so she was definitely ready to play when she woke up. good thing, because the Ford cousins were ready to play too. we played games, had an easter egg hunt, and had some more food. here you can see greta checking out her cousin hannah.











greta also got the chance to be rocked in the rocking chair by cassie. as you can tell by cassie's expression, she takes this task very seriously.













then ellie decided she wanted to join in the fun too. look at the pretty girls in their pretty Easter dresses. at this point greta had ditched her shoes, tights, sweater, and hairbow. at least the dress was cute....












jacob thought about joining hannah, ellie, cassie and greta in the girly fun they were having, but then he thought better of it. all in all, it was a fun Easter and a great day to share with family.....
