Easter 2011

We had a relatively predictable Easter this year.

Regardless of how that sounds, it's actually a good thing.  Sometimes our holiday events end up taking an unexpected turn.  Such as the Christmas vacation that involved no less than six trips to the airport, 12 inches of snow, 3 days of constant flight status monitoring and someone's allergic reaction to antibiotics.  Heck, that was all before we even left Seattle!  Then there was the Emergency Room visit on my Birthday when Tanya had an allergic reaction, the kids were freaking out that we'd be arrested for leaving the restaurant without paying and they saw an ER patient get handcuffed to a gurney by a police officer.

Yes, predictable Holidays are our favorites.

The day before Easter, Sue and Steve arrived along with Gavin and Aleigh.
We all had fun coloring Easter Eggs.











Alright, the kids had fun coloring eggs. The dog enjoyed waiting for someone to drop something and the rest of us had fun doing anything except coloring eggs.







The cousins slept over at our place and we did our best to capture four smiles at once on Easter morning.

Instead of four smiles, we managed to get a stiff cat (left), a flamingo (center) and an 'almost but not quite' bored teen. The fourth smile... running just a few seconds late I guess.



Better boost my photoshop skills before the next holiday so we don't need to worry so much about them smiling for the pictures.

~~Had to delete the animated .gif. Sorry you missed it.~~

Once we finished the annual photo shoot antics, we enjoyed a nice Easter service at Church and then a pleasant brunch afterwards.

Happy Easter!
