Happy Easter!

HAPPY EASTER!

We kicked off our Easter celebration today, because tomorrow Marty has a 24 hour shift and will be gone (plus, we can focus on the REAL meaning of Easter tomorrow).

After breakfast, the girls all went to the library with Marty (it's become a Saturday tradition we all look forward to).  While they were gone the Easter Bunny came and left eggs in the backyard.  Isn't that so convenient?

The girls were SO excited!


And they're off...


Addison's first Easter Egg hunt.


I have more eggs than you do...


Poor girl isn't feeling the best, so she wasn't 100% into it.

She is lucky she's so cute though, her sisters made sure to leave eggs for her and helped her find them as well.


"Show me your baskets!"


Addison sees an opportunity while Claire is distracted to snatch an egg.


Claire gets her cool moves from Marty....and her sense of style.


When Addison went down for her nap, we dyed some eggs. We considered doing this while she was awake.  But since we don't really like catastrophic disasters, we opted for her waiting another year (or two...or three) to partake in this.
 
 


It has been such a great Saturday!  It really surprises me that the longer we've been away from "home", the more I've been able to really enjoy and appreciate these quiet holiday celebrations with just our little family....not saying a nice big celebration wouldn't be enjoyable as well!

I hope you ALL have a fantastic Easter weekend!

Love their matching outfits. Your girls always look adorable. Looks like a fun day! Hope Addison gets feeling better soon.

I love their matching shirts! Nice work with making the hunt fun AND dying eggs (without Addison's help) I totally skipped the eggs this year figuring Brooklyn didn't know and wouldn't care :) I'm THAT mom, he he.
