Resurrection Bunny

Easter will likely always remind me of the beginning of this sweet life with Noemi. Last year, the Lenten season was one of great waiting; and that dark period appropriately came to an end shortly after Easter Sunday. I remember rejoicing at the time, thinking of Noemi as our resurrection baby. We had just celebrated the resurrection of Christ, and were feeling a resurrection of sorts of our own souls. I felt a renewed devotion to the my faith in the Easter story and the hope that it ultimately is meant to bring.

This year, we have our little bunny home with us. She made this Easter our sweetest yet. And it being one of the warmest Easters on record certainly didn’t hurt, either. She loved romping around with her cousin Anna and hunting for eggs in the grass. Just a few pics from the day…

If you're part of my family, then you know how awesome of a photo this is. To get a photo of my dad not doing his goofy smile is, well, uh, difficult. This one's a keeper of Pappy and Sosi. Nice one, Dad!
