Happy Easter!

This year, the Easter festivities started on Friday afternoon with an egg hunt at Nana's. On Saturday, we went to Durham park for another Easter egg hunt. On Sunday, we spent Easter brunch at Raymond and Jenny's and then drove down to my parents' for Easter dinner. Three days and 4 Easter egg hunts later, Ava was wiped out! She had a blast and loved spending time with the whole family-her favorite thing to do! I learned that plastic eggs are much better for an almost-two year old to hunt for, as opposed to hard boiled eggs. Ava tried to "open" some of the hard boiled eggs that she found and stuck her fingers right through them! She thought there was candy inside those too...


She loved the bunnies!

See the scratched up chin? She fell off our neighbor's porch the night before and cut her lip and her chin-great timing!


My mom's table, set for Easter dinner.


Ava and Gramma laughing at the egg and the chick.



Ava was heading out--check out her overflowing Easter basket!


Takin' a break from finding eggs.



Drew and Emma were helping Ava find Easter eggs-they were so helpful and Ava absolutely loves them!


At Raymond and Jenny's finding eggs. Last year at Easter, she wasn't quite walking and didn't get the whole idea of finding eggs...this year, she was on a mission! She was running everywhere trying to find every single egg-I'm going to need a bigger basket next year!




The fam, at Durham park. Ava already had her mouth full of chocolate...



At Nana's, satisfied with her one egg that had jelly beans in it.



The bunny hutch that Aly and Ava made-Ava tried to eat everything the whole time...




Aly and Ava-having fun!
