Stella's First Easter

Stella had SUCH a good Easter yesterday... We all did.  The sun was out, the Easter bunny came, church was great, and we ate lots of yummy food! 

Our morning started off with Stella opening her French Easter basket! Mom & Dad searched all over our tiny town for plastic eggs and there were NONE.  So we decided the French Easter bunny leaves bright-colored macarons instead :)

We had church around 10:30 at the Big House and read the Easter story from the Isaac's French Bible and sang a couple of hymns...some in English, some in French.  Mom & Dad wore jeans but Stella dolled up for the occasion :)

After church the Isaac kiddos went on their Easter egg hunt.  There were some pretty amazing hiding places seeing as we live on a few acres of land here in France :)

We ran outside for a few quick photo opps even though it was SUPER chilly! The blue skies and bright sun were just too pretty. Here is Uncle Caleb with all the French-side nieces and nephew.

And our little family of 3 :) As you can see, Stella didn't know what to do with the bright sun!

After the egg hunt and few pictures, it was time for lunch.  Stella slept through most of it :)

After lunch, Logan & I watched Gateway's Easter service on a live feed on our computer. (Technology is crazy, right?) Then we went on a long walk and enjoyed the nice weather.    We ended our day talking to my family in Texas and eating frozen pizzas in front of a movie :) What a memorable first Easter with Stella!
