easter sunday photos

My awesome mom-in-law sewed an Easter dress for Kaya, and as a bonus surprise, she also made a matching necktie and skirt for us! I wanted a few nice family photos, but Easter morning was gray and rainy. Luckily, the bad weather subsided for a little while, and we were able to set up the tripod and take a few quick ones.

I really wanted a photo where you could see my skirt, so it would be obvious that we matched. But with the camera being so far away, Kaya didn’t see it (usually she looks at the blinking timer), and she thought it was so funny to see her mommy running toward her, so here is the best we got of all our matchy matchiness. Oh well._MG_3507 _MG_3512 Love my two cuddle buddies… I also love how she’s sucking her thumb here. That’s so typical these days!_MG_3522Doll baby!
_MG_3539_MG_3513 I wanted a nice mother-daughter picture, and I finally got one 🙂 (Sucking your thumb and smiling? that’s multitasking at its finest!)_MG_3520 Goofy mommy-baby outtakes. Michael has a talent for making us both laugh!03312013photogridI’m so grateful for the Atonement and Resurrection of Jesus Christ, which is the true purpose of celebrating Easter. Because of His sacrifice, I have an amazing family that I can love and live with for eternity.
