Funny Bunny

Is this not the cutest bunny ever?!
The kids had such a good time decorating Easter eggs with friends right before Easter.  (Ryder even got to do it twice!)  They also really enjoyed the Easter egg hunt held on Easter itself.  I tried without luck to find an English speaking church to go to that day, so we just talked about God and Jesus with Ryder and River and I cooked a nice dinner at home.  The boys got a small basket to share from the "Easter bunny".  It was amazing how happy they were even though they didn't get several baskets like they normally do.  (Another lesson in third world living:  Our kids don't need all the crap they get!)  Ryder's good friend Neila brought her bunnies to the hunt.  (She has SEVEN~ the original mama & daddy she had have been very busy!)  In Nicaragua, Easter is known as Semana Santa and is on the Thursday and Friday before.  However, they celebrate the entire week.  A lot of them looked at us like we were crazy when we told them we were planning on dying and hiding real eggs!  They also know nada about the Easter bunny.  But they do know all about Jesus' resurrection, so we're on the same page on that one!  :)
Ryder loves animals.
My other sweet boy!

Hope everyone else had a great Easter!  (Yes, I know I'm still blogging in the past tense, but at least I'm blogging!)  :)
