This year we had my parents over to our house for Easter. It was our first time hosting a holiday and we had a wonderful time together. We had a delicious dinner of BBQ stake, baby red potatoes and roasted asparagus. Thank you Emily for the great asparagus recipe!! Yummy!!
On Easter morning we all got up and got ready for church and then when we got there we realized it started at 10:00 instead of 10:30 like it usually does. We even looked it up on the website... and anyway... we got there and they were having church out on the lawn under a tent and there was no where to park... and we were too embarrassed so we ended up driving through the parking lot and then driving away. We decided that since we were already all dressed up we would go out for a nice brunch. We went to Downtown Claremont and had a delicious meal at Walter's. Then we walked around town because it was such a beautiful day.
I love walking around down there. There are so many beautiful trees and flowers. There are cute old houses and fun little shops. Even thought the day didn't exactly go as planned we had a great time. My parents had to leave on Sunday afternoon so once they left we headed over to have a fabulous Easter dinner with Josh, Amy, Jackson and the whole family. Amy's Mom is a wonderful cook and always prepares a feast. They are such a wonderful family, they make us feel like we are family too!! I feel so blessed to have such wonderful family and friends. Although life can be very stressful at times, I am so blessed!!

You and Josh are apart of our family! We love you.
hahahah! You guys crack me up! I think we may have done that once or twice before too. (church) :) Dont you just love Claremont? Did you go to the Farmers Market? I always want to go...but its always done by the time we get outta church. My favorite store down there is Barbara Cheatley. Awww...I just love that little town. :) :)
Yea, being that we missed church we were early enough to hit the farmers market!! ; ) We were bummed that all the shops were closed but that was because it was Easter Sunday. So I guess that was a good reason to be closed! Thanks Amy, we love you guys!!!!!!
