Easter

Last Thursday after Ethan's Easter party at preschool, we headed to Georgia. The kids were both good travelers, even though Nina only napped a little and Ethan didn't nap at all. Towards the end of the trip, it got a little hairy, but we made it. Friday we went into Atlanta to see the puppet teams at Lads to Leaders. Ethan loves this little girl from church so he was excited to see her....although when he did see her, he got very quiet. Saturday we went to Cedar Grove's cookout and egg hunt. It was fun to see all our old friends and the kids had a good time - it was so chilly though. Sunday was Easter and it was so pretty outside. The kids loved running around the yard and finding eggs. I love seeing all the pretty trees, flowers and bushes blooming!

Ethan and Allie at the egghunt Nina had at least 2 Lindt lambs before church....and yes, she's in Halloween pjs - not great planning on my part!
Ethan caught in the middle of a yawn looking through his Easter basket



I thought Ethan and Nina's expressions were hilarious - neither were interested in taking pictures (surprise, surprise)

Hope everyone had a great Easter!

Hey girl, love the pics and it was great seeing you all at the egg hunt. We will definitely plan for our trip north once your month calms down. I'll check back with you in a week or so and maybe we can check some dates. Hang in there sweetie!

I just love looking at your kid's. They crack me up every time there is a photo op. I think you have 2 showmen on your hands.
