EASTER

As you know we are always a little behind on our blogging, so... Happy Easter!

We began our Easter festivities with an Easter egg hunt with our good friends the Seaton's and their sweet baby Kennedy
Lily likes Kennedy
Lily likes to hug Kennedy
Oh, Lily loves Kennedy

 Lily met the Easter bunny...
She was interested but slighty cautious.

But there was no time to worry with giant bunnies....
It was time to hunt some eggs!!!

Get ready....

Get set...

GO!!!!!
And she's off...

Lily was the best and fastest egg hunter of the 2 years and under group.
We were a little skeptical if she would get the concept but she was on a roll!
I guess she got alot of practice at school; they studied all about Easter, made baskets and had an egg hunt.
She had learned that there was some kind of goodies in those eggs- so mid hunt after each find she had to open each egg to make sure it was valuable.
We also had problems depositing the eggs. Lily wanted to go fast, fast, fast! That meant Mama wasn't always a step behind with the basket so Lily would have a couple tucked under her chin and a few under her arm. It was pretty fun to watch her determination and excitement!

Lily was a prize winner in her age group. She recieved a Velveteen Rabbit and lots of  "CAKE" (cake = cake, chocolate, sucker, candy, ice cream and anything sweet and tasty that comes after eating all her dinner or in a wrinkley, shiny wrapper)
It took a little while to open each and every egg, shake it, examine it and then move on....

All that really mattered is that there was "CAKE" at the end.


More Easter to come!
