Easter!!

Here is just a cute video clip of the girls the night before Easter, singing Frozen songs.  I wanted to capture it on video tape...

This year Easter was a total blast!  The Easter bunny came and brought an obscene amount of sweets and treats for the kids!  The girls had a such fun digging in to their fun baskets of surprises.  We also enjoyed dying eggs as a family, baking a homemade carrot cake, and hiding Easter eggs at the park in new Easter dresses the girls got to pick out the day before.  Avril insisted that we dress to impress, complete with new cute sandals, hair accessories, and curly hair!
I loved making the day special, and capturing the memories in lots of pictures and videos.  I was lucky enough to get some pretty incredible shots with just my little ol' iphone camera.

Here is a video clip of the girls in the morning, finding their Easter baskets...

Surprise!  I made it in to a photo... made sure to have Mike take one so you knew mom was present...

It takes some serious concentration to get it just right...

So fun!

This is one of my new favorite Avril pics.  Gorgeous brown-eyed sweetheart girl.  She made the bunny ears at her school.

Avril also made these Easter crafts at her school.  She wanted to display them on the shelf in her room.  Adorable.

And here are some pics from my little photo shoot with the girls.  They looked way too cute in their Easter dresses to let a photo opp slip by...

Avril shows her sister some love...and McKel shows some love to her Easter candy :)

Sweet, adorable sisters...

Happy Easter everybody!!

Happy Easter memories :)

I LOVE this shot!  It even made it to be my new facebook profile pic!  Its just so precious.

Here's a shot of the girls' hair from the back :)  Those curl formers are spectacular!!

Love this shot of Avril.  She just beams with happiness!

The girls got Mike tucked in to bed... on the comfy floor!

I took a pic of our YUMMY homemade carrot cake!

...And here are some shots from our Easter egg hunt at the park by Daybreak.  It was super windy.  The girls had so much fun playing in the freezing cold water, swinging, climbing jungle gyms, and hiding eggs!

McKel is on the hunt for plastic candy-filled Easter eggs!

Avril's basket is filling up quickly!  She is pro at this!

A sweet action shot of Avril running down the hillside, basket filled with eggs...

Beautiful girl

A very happy Avril

The girls just LOVED this little lake.  You can hear how windy it was out in the video.  You can also hear a lot of screamy squeals from little girls!

Dipping their feet in the chilly water...

So much fun!!

Faster mommy, faster!

Pure glee!
