Hannah's First Easter

Hannah was able to experience her first Easter three different times over the course of Spring Break. First, on Thursday we had Easter lunch at my mom and dad's before we all took off for our trips. It was a yummy lunch of traditional Yates/Blake food and made me feel like I was with my extended family for Easter. Hannah received her first Easter basket from Gwannie and Gampy full of new books - one of her favorite gifts! Here is a snap of it.

On Friday, we left for the northwoods to spend some time with Tim's family. Saturday was a busy day of two Easter celebrations, a seperate meal and family time with both sets of Hannah's great grandparents. In between meals, we also watched Daddy play basketball at the G-E-T Alumni game. Even though his team was 0-2, he did a great job!

On Sunday, Hannah got more Easter baskets from us and from Nana and Papa and a pair of shoes from Aunt Nikki and Uncle Kyle. After church, we started for our trip home. It was a great weekend to spend with family, and most of all to reflect on what Jesus did for us by dying on the cross. We praise Him every day for his sacrifice.
