There was a live band, and an adorable puppet show about Jesus Christ and the resurrection.There were 20-30 different stations set up for the kids with games/crafts, and some of them featured spiritual object lessons.

A petting zoo... in the church (I thought that was a little weird, but the kids loved it)
An egg hunt of course!

And a train ride (I think I was even more excited than the kids for this!)
Here they are posing. I don't know why they do these funny poses every time we whip out the camera! It cracks me up!
I continued a tradition from my childhood and added scriptures to their eggs which we read during Easter dinner.
The worst part about the day was that Baby Jakey absolutely HATED the Easter Bunny. Every time he would walk by, Jakey would either start screaming, or he would scowl at him. :( We ended up having to completely avoid being in the same room!

Here he is on the way home... completely exhausted from all that screaming and scowling!
Poor little guy.
Hope you had a wonderful Easter!

That looks like so much FUN! You always find great things to do as a family. You look beautiful in the picture with Jakey.
Wow! What a party!!
I want to know about that place!!! It's too bad we didn't go together since it'll be your last year at it. :o( I love the picture of Jakey screaming at the bunny...what fun children are!
Sadie thought the Easter Bunny was suspect as well....she gave him the stink eye and buried her face!!!
looks like you guys had a fun day!!!
That is a cool idea to put a scripture in their baskets and to read it. I will probably do that kind of thing in my own way, but I'm definately going to do something more like that next year...and maybe adapt it for Christmas. It looks like you had a fun Easter! Holidays are always so much more fun with kids!
I love that Jakey was scared of the Easter Bunny. Andrew is too! It looks like you guys had a great Easter! What fun with 4 little ones!!
