Easter Sunday

Happy Resurrection Day
from the Klassen's

Our Easter started out with a busy morning at church. I was very thankful that I didn't have to teach Sunday School, as they gave the teacher's the morning off (thanks Michele and Debi!). That meant Jon and I were able to worship God together (something that seems so rare in our business lately). The sermon was really good (you can click on the link to watch the sermon from Easter). Then we went to the nursery to hang out with all the little ones. It was so much fun seeing all the little babies in their Easter attire.
Then we headed down to Hanford to spend some time celebrating Christ's Resurrection with Jon's family. We celebrated with pizza and an Easter Hunt and then cake for Jon's Aunt Debbie's birthday. Each of the boys (well, Cooper, Logan and Ethan) received a golf set from Jon's grandparents. They had so much fun hitting balls around the yard! I think at one point, all the guys were out there and it became slightly "full contact," which apparently how Jon and his cousins used to play. It was neat to see the boys all playing together! It started to rain shortly after the Easter egg hunt, which was perfect timing (it was a beautiful rain. . . cold, but beautiful!).
We ended our day with dinner in Lemoore with my family. We took pictures on my mom's camera - but can't find the cord, so maybe someday those will get posted. Ryan (my niece) hid quite a few eggs for Ethan. Unfortunately, he was tired and not really into hunting, so he gave up after about 5 eggs.
We had so much fun celebrating with our families. We feel so blessed to have them both so close! We hope that everyone had an awesome time this Easter season.

Our Little Family Easter

Happy Belated Easter everyone!

The day before Easter, Jon and I took the opportunity to celebrate a nice quiet Easter with Ethan. We made a nice breakfast and let Ethan have his Easter Basket, full of fun surprises. Then, we went and hunted for a ton of Easter eggs, including some of those that we dyed the night before. He caught on incredibly quick and successfully found all 30 eggs! He didn't need a whole lot of help (of course I hid them fairy easy!).
Then we went on a family walk and enjoyed a pizza dinner at Me & Ed's. It ended being such a nice quiet day. . . and we LOVED it! It was great because Easter was going to be very busy. I hope you all had a great day!

Our First Easter Tradition

This year, Ethan was 2 days shy of 19 months when we celebrated Easter. There are a lot more things you can do at this stage than the year before when he was just 6 months old. This year, we started the tradition of Easter egg dying. We did this on Friday night after dinner. Ethan had fun putting the stickers on and Jon had fun going back to his childhood. We love family time!
