Easter 2010

Happy Easter!!!

We had another great Easter this year, only it was even better then before because of Emma! Dying Easter eggs had an extra special meaning this year since it was Emma's first time. Although it was right before bedtime and Emma was getting pretty sleepy, we had a good time and you could just tell that Emma had no idea what was going on haha! And yes, each year, we dye our Easter eggs in coffee cups haha.

I think Emma's eggs turned out the best. We dyed most of hers yellow, which ended up working out well with Mimi's Easter egg hunt later!

It's a tradition on my side of the family from when I was little, that you at least have to have ONE egg that gets dyed with every possible color... haha!

Since they were hard boiled, we thought we would let Emma have some fun with one of her eggs. So we let her have one to see what would happen and wouldn't you know, not 10 seconds later, this is what it looked like haha!

The end result!

Since Emma had a bit of a rough week last week, I decided to get her one or two more things for her Easter basket. I came across these, and just couldn't resist!

Here she is modeling one of her new sunglasses! And yes, that is about 37 pieces of cinnamon toast in her mouth during breakfast haha. What a cool chick!

After spending a relaxing Easter morning at home, we were off to Mimi's house to get together with Emma's big cousins! Here is Emma playing with her big cousin Ally! She loved that big pink soccer ball!

After some playing and dinner it was time to hunt for some Easter eggs! Emma was finally asleep after fighting a nap so Daddy went around and eyed where most of Emma's yellow eggs were. Then it was up to her big cousins Lauren and Dana to find them all!

These are just a few other pictures from the day. I don't know what it is about this picture but I absolutely love it! This is Emma's Aunt Mary (or the Baby Whisperer as we like to call her) with her little man Robert.

This is one of Emma's big cousin's, Allyson! Gorgeous!

For most of the day, little Robert was amazed with what was down in the yucky stare well of Mimi and Pop's house. I still can't believe how big he is getting!

This was just too funny to not take a picture of. Mimi got Robert a little weed-whacker set as an Easter present, and I don't think he put it down for the rest of the night!

Before we headed out, it was time for a quick couple of games of "picky egg". Emma wasn't quite sure what to think of the whole thing, but I have no doubt that she will grow up and love the game as much as we all do!

These aren't actually Easter pictures but a couple of quick shots when I was trying out one of my new photo backgrounds! Not the best pictures, but I love the color of the backdrop!
