Easter is Egg-cellent!

It was so much fun to be with family during Easter. Emily was at the age where she could have fun with it. Not that she really understood everything that was going on, but she definitely had a good time with all of the activities! We tried to get to a local egg hunt (it was kinda cold and rainy out-yuck!). We were a little off on what time it started, so we were a few minutes late and missed it-so, we recreated the hunt for Emily and Saylor! We just put a couple of eggs on the ground-they didn't know any better-there's a benefit of their age! We also colored eggs at home and had our own hunt Easter afternoon in the house. Of course there were Easter baskets full of goodies too!! Her Easter candy also taught her a new word-chocolate!! A true daughter of her mother-what can I say! It actually comes out kinda cute "quaak-k-kit" sort of, I guess if you'd have to spell it. Here's a bunch of pictures from our fun.

Saylor at the egg hunt-he was way into it!


Emily wasn't too thrilled-had to coax her a bit.


She was more interested in the playground.


Emily had a great time coloring eggs!


Wasn't too sure about getting her fingers messy though!


Our little bunny!


Saylor had some too!


Oooohh-Easter basket goodies!!!


They were both very interested in finding the eggs we hid in the house-we could not believe how quick they were to understand, and how long it kept their attention!! They were even stealing eggs from each other and nearly fighting over the eggs if they both found one at the same time-it was a blast to watch! They were so sweet carrying their little baskets of eggs around.

The hunt begins!


"I found one!"


Filling up her basket.


"Is there any more Mom?"


Emily also got to hang out with Uncle Geoff while he was home for Easter break. I believe she's pointing to her nose-not picking it!


Saylor was just too darn cute in his little suit!
