pretty little house...

when you see a pretty little house with a barn

any day immediately becomes a perfect day to take some pictures...

especially little girls in their Easter dresses

I ended up taking around 100 pictures in 30 minutes...
{right before Saturday service}

so for the fact I am only showing about 30 of them is a pretty big downsize...

I love Easter...

maybe because of the girls in their pretty dresses

because they have fun getting dressed up and then playing outside in the dirt

in their dresses

because their Mama takes them to get their pictures pretty soon after it rains

so there is mud

dirt

worms to occupy them as I snap away

they had a blast

you can't tell but their stains were all over their dresses

before church even started

but I always say "clothes are meant to be worn and have fun in"

not meant to just always look pretty

wear them and be yourself...

and for my girls...it is picking flowers and playing in the dirt

I guess they get that from me since I pick weeds in my flower beds as I'm walking in or out of the house because I can't stand to just leave them you know...
{it doesn't matter what I wear I do it anyway ~ which makes Bobby laugh}

we had so much fun and everyone was willing to take pictures

even Daddy...

and Hayley

but I love Easter for the more important reason too...what it stands for

I love that we are all His children that He chose

every single one of us

I love the celebration

I love the praise we give Him at church

and I love knowing and being thankful for His sacrifice for us

the colors of Easter

are so happy and friendly

the colors give you a peak into summer...

I love the egg hunts the kids get so excited for

and making breakfast for my family

and I love that it's a relaxing day no matter what

I love that we always have a BBQ with family

and since my parents live right here in town~ it's celebrated with them
and they get so excited to get their Easter dresses for them every year

conversation is fun and relaxing...just the way it should be

Easter is always a beautiful celebration

of the gift we all have been given

but also the gifts we can give to others

Happy Easter from this little pretty house we found

and all the love, laughs, and smiles we had taking these pictures

{the picture of Bobby and I was taken by sweet Madison ~ she was so proud of herself}
