We had the most beautiful weather last weekend! It didn't last long, but it was nice to be able to play outside and celebrate Easter all weekend long with our family and friends.
On Friday, I took Jackson and Ellie on a wagon ride. We also picked dandelions, wrote on the driveway with sidewalk chalk, and dusted off Ellie's tricycle and scooter. She had a little trouble last summer and fall on the tricycle because her legs weren't quite long or strong enough to push the pedals. She has definitely overcome that! She got on and cruised around the driveway. We even got her a new helmet since Bike Day at school is just a few weeks away.
I love this!!
On Saturday, the day before Easter, Papa Clint and Grandpa came over to visit. Ellie showed off her cycling skills and new helmet.
That evening, all the cousins came over and we ate pizza, colored eggs, and had a practice egg hunt!
The Easter Bunny came! Ellie left him some carrots and chocolates. He ate everything, but left the wrappers. Ellie was a little annoyed that he didn't throw his trash away. :)
Following the trail of eggs to her basket. She loved this part!
We went over to some friends' after church on Sunday. We had an awesome lunch, a huge egg hunt, and the kids played outside all day. The weather was perfect and we all had a blast!
Gage drove all the girls around in his truck.
Ellie returned the favor by giving him a push on the swing.
Waiting on the dads to hide the eggs.
Ready, Set, Go!
Look at all those eggs!
We left around 6:00 p.m. and Ellie fell asleep in the car. She slept until 7:30 a.m. the next morning, and I had to wake her up then to get ready for school. She was exhausted! With both kids in bed early, Kyle and I watched "The Bible" together. A perfect ending to a perfect Easter!!
