Easter morning began early, like every other morning in the Pasillas household. If our boys are anything, one thing they are surely NOT is sleeper-in-ers!! I'm sure they got up before dawn, but thankfully, the Easter Bunny knows this and was prepared.
After I was awake enough, I decided to send them on their discovery mission! There was a 'noise' on the porch that I insisted they check out. Caleb faithfully did and quickly called Levi over to 'SEE WHAT THE EASTER BUNNY LEFT!!"

They alerted Daddy and we all went outside to check it out. They were so excited to see baskets full of candy and a bunny cake that the Easter Bunny had prepared especially for them.

It was precious to see the joy and excitement on their faces. You should notice that in none of the pictures is Caleb eating any of his candy. This was for the sad fact that two days earlier I had given him the candy-cutoff, only to find him under the table, ravenously consuming ALL of the candy left from his daycare Easter party as I was on the phone getting a prescription for sicky Levi! I felt bad saying no candy for the weekend because of his disobedience and wondered, frankly, if I could follow through once I said it! Nevertheless, I stuck to my guns and Caleb was great about it. No candy all weekend, and not even on Easter. As he pulled all the pieces out of his basket, he would say, "Ooh, Mommy look! This one is so yummy, but I'm not going to eat it because I wasn't a good listener."
Levi on the other hand, dug right in to his candy... chocolate bunny, peeps, and all!
After church and naptime we headed over to Annie Becky's for a yummy late lunch, homemade, and the annual egg hunt!

| Jacob is such a sweet cousin. He was sharing lots of eggs with Caleb. |

Then it was time for Easter Pictures!! I think we got some AWESOME ones, if I might say so myself! I love these goofy boys and it is so much fun to see them interact with Mollie! She is getting so big! She is adorable and more and more interactive every day! They love her sooo much! I can only hope this is a foreshadow of days to come with their little sister.
And to end the day... Kite flying! I'm not sure who was having more fun, the little boys or the big boys!
We continue to look at these precious boys and feel
Blessed beyond Measure!!
