It's amazing how much each holiday changes as the years pass by. Last Easter Mayce and Jasmine had an Easter egg hunt in our backyard and Trish and I ended up picking up far more than the girls did. This year things were drastically different and about as much fun as you can imagine. Our morning started off at home where Mayce's basket was waiting on the kitchen table. 
It had everything a girl could want...a bucket, a spade, a cultivator (all pink mind you), panda bear gloves, an Easter pony, and of course CHOCOLATE!! After a quick perusal of the basket we were off to the sunrise service and breakfast at the church before going to Grandma's house for lunch and a hunt. 
The child ran, and ran, and ran, until all the eggs were found and no more candy was in sight. 
It was a great day filled with family, friends, love, and the story of Christ's resurrection. The best part of the day without a doubt was wrapped up in 3 words. After the hunt, the food, and the fun we asked Mayce what the real reason for Easter was. Her answer..."Jesus holds me."
