Lucas gave us a horendous night's sleep Sat night/ Sun morn. He was up from 1:45 till 3:30, then again at 5 and 7. It made for a looong day yesterday.
But then last night he gifted us with an Easter Miracle, and slept till 4:30, and then was up around 7:30, and we all slept till almost 9.
Despite our exaustion yesterday, we had a good time with everyone. Nothing like your 2 year old Hopped up (hee hee) on no nap and all chocolate. We had a few time outs.
Anyways, dinner was great. My Pear & Raspberry Cobbler was divine! Recipe at bottom ;)
Anyways, here are some pictures from yesterday...
And the customary Family shot!

Amazing timing Andrea! Hubby and I were just talking about Raspberry Pear Pie last night and I was going to search for a recipe for it! Will try this out this week. Thank you!
Lucas looks so adorable in that bunny ears hat! And of course Seth is a cutie as well. What a gorgeous family photo! And that cobbler...yum! Wish it would just appear here without me having to actually bake it!
Great photos, Andrea! The kids are so dang adorable all in blue!
What crappy weather for Easter, huh!??! Ugh...bring on the sun! :) You all look so very gorgeous though. Even being sleep deprived and with Seth hopped up on chocolate! ;) LOL
Hope you're doing well, girl! I can't believe that Lucas is getting older so fast! It seems like just yesterday that you had him! My gosh!! Enjoy that little baby time! {{HUGS}}
