Resurrection Sunday (Easter) pictures

We live in Oregon. It is a beautiful, lush, green part of the country. It is that way mostly because we get rain 6-9 months out of the year.

But, this weekend was phenomenal. I saw one temperature reading at 81 degrees on Sunday, which is virtually unheard of for March in the Great Northwest.

Below are some pictures of the weekend. Because, really, words can't do justice. Especially to the series of photos we took trying to get the 4 grandkids in one picture together.

The day looks like a lot of fun was had! And I could not get a single picture of my two girls together that was post worthy!

Great pictures!
Kaylee got a tricycle for her birthday and she loves it, although she's not quite tall enough to pedal it yet.
