Going back a few months...Easter 2009

I have been so busy lately that I have failed to update this blog on a regular basis, so I am going to go back a few months and post some really cute pictures and updates to bring you all up to speed on life with the Burgess family. Lets start with Easter, which was a really great weekend where we spent Saturday doing the annual Easter egg hunt at our church in the neighborhood.

The kids had a great time and Kamryn loved looking at (rather than picking up) all of the colorful eggs. Her big sister was there to help her make sure her basket stayed full with eggs though.
When it was time for Kendyl's hunt she ran full speed with the other 3 and 4 year olds to gather as many eggs as possible and then fill up on lots of candy and cookies.
While we were there, the girls were able to visit the Easter bunny and sit on his lap, which as you can judge by the picture, Kendyl loved, and Kamryn did not. But atleast we do have the classic Easter bunny picture with one child screaming and the other looking at her as if she lost her mind.
We finished out the day at church with Kendyl getting her face painted and then coloring Easter eggs at home that night with Ju-Ju and Paw Paw.
The next morning the girls loved opening their Easter baskets and then it was off to church. They both did fairly well in church and Kendyl really loved all of the singing. She has continually asked to go back to church after that Sunday, which is great news! We have been talking more and more about Jesus lately and she is really beginning to understand more about who he is; however, she is extremely upset about Jesus not being a girl. She is in a boys are yucky stage so she wants Jesus to be a girl too, I guess. She was literally in tears one night as I read her the childrens bible and she saw a picture of Jesus in there and he was a boy. I felt bad for her and honestly, I wasnt even sure how to handle the situation, its not like I can fix that! Oh well, it was a great weekend...with an ongoing "problem" in her eyes. LOL!
