After church today we went over to Vanessa’s annual Easter brunch.  It was our first year and we had so much fun!  Leave it to Vanessa and her sisters to plan an amazing ‘event’  for all the kids.  Everything was amazing from the brunch buffet to the goodie bags for the kids.
Speaking of kids, this year the kids out-numbered the adults.  That’s a little scary! 
Here the are all lined up on the stairs for a picture.  Doesn’t it just look like a sea of kids!?

And I noticed that a few of the guests had been in front of my camera before…like Elizabeth and Ethan!  Although I don’t think I captured this side of Ethan. 🙂

Here’s Cooper moments before the crazy-big Easter egg hunt.  He got the memo that said shoulders up makes you look cute.  (Notice this new pose in ALL his pictures.)

Jake was the oldest kid…hence the overly stuffed easter bucket!  Don’t worry, I made him give 20 eggs to little kids afterwards. 🙂

Cooper was SHOCKED to find prizes inside each of the eggs!!!  I think this is my favorite picture from the day.

Here’s Jillian, just being cute.

After the egg hunt, she ducked away during the picture taking fuss and was ready to drive away with her loot.  I caught these moments through the slats of the deck.

And I made the brothers take a picture.  As you can see they are thrilled about this. 🙂

The party was a blast!  It was fun to see familiar faces and meet some new people as well.  My kids were talking about it all evening.  What a great time!
