Easter Eve

On Saturday we woke up and got ready to head over to Sheila & Rowan's for their now annual Easter egg hunt. We were super excited to see Jamie, Marley & the boys. Hannah Claire and Evan are so close in age and can now play together. We wish they didn't live so far away but we enjoy getting to see them when they visit! There was a house full of people and HC was not shy about joining in on the fun. She made her way over and sat in Mrs. Claire's lap to watch Toy Story 2 with the other kiddos.

Once the hunt started kids were everywhere. It had rained earlier so the eggs had been hidden downstairs and on the patio. HC was an old pro after her practice at school the day before. Although she could have racked up on more eggs. She found several and would only take one, leaving the others for the other kids. It will be interesting to see if she does this next year.

There were a few eggs that were hard to find. HC and Matt polished the last few off.

We had some great food after the egg hunt but most of all we got to spend some time with some dear friends.

Once we got home we had some work to do to get ready for a visit from the Easter bunny. Hannah Claire didn't really get the egg dying last year but she was much more involved this year. (Plus, Mommy loves it.) We got everything set up and HC joined me on the counter with her purple Peep. If you look closely you can see her bluish/purple mouth.

HC got right in on the action. She really enjoyed it.

HC put the final egg in the drying rack. She did a fantastic job!

Now it was time to cut up with Daddy. They are super silly!

They love each other so much!

Not too mushy though (just like her Mommy).
