The Easter Post with all the Pictures...

Reading a book from the Easter Bunny

Grandma and Grandpa are hilarious!
The Easter Bunny brought musical instruments
Easter is SERIOUS business
Mouth full of snacks...



Getting ready for church can make a gal hungry!

So I managed to hold back on Facebook but our blog is fair game for me to post any and every picture we took on Easter.  It will be hard to believe these are my favorites.  There are many more to choose from :)

Hunting for eggs with dad
Grasping her loot...ONE egg...
We had a wonderful Easter weekend.  We got up on Saturday and drove to Windsor to meet the Easter Bunny at a small coffee shop.  It's the perfect place to see the Easter Bunny because it's never crowded and we know who is inside the suit :)  Audrey was unsure at first but after her 3rd attempt at sitting on his lap she had warmed up.  She was never upset necessarily but the Easter Bunny had to be on his best game to keep her from slipping off his lap and onto the floor in an attempt to escape.
It looks like she's got the hang of it!

So proud of herself
There's always time for a break and a snack
After meeting the Easter bunny we drove down to Colorado Springs where Scott and I got to take Luke to get a tux for prom AND go to a movie!  Audrey had a great time with my mom and Bob and slept like a rock while we were gone (she saves up her restless nights for work nights of course...). 

The next day we were ready ON TIME for church.  Audrey got to play with other little kids in the nursery.  I was worried about her during the service since it was a new place but when I went back to pick her up she had a crowd gathered around her and she became noodle baby because she didn't want to leave.  STINKER!

Learning to take the steps
Hunting eggs with grandma
The church had an egg hunt and Audrey was adorable running after the other kids who were searching wildly for eggs.  It was announced during the service that there was one, rare, golden egg worth a special prize and despite our greatest efforts Audrey just wasn't able to cram a lesson on colors into her busy egg hunting schedule.  She only found the eggs that we picked up and put in her basket but she had a great time running around swinging her basket and climbing on the hill.
Happy Easter

We went to my aunt's house for Easter lunch and had another round of egg hunting, this time just for Audrey.  She had a better idea of what to do this time but once she realized the eggs had Teddy Grahams inside she became MUCH more interested in snacking.

EASTER BUNNY SAY WHAT??!!
NOW she's got the hang of it!

We had such a nice time eating Easter lunch and spending time out in the beautiful weather.  I have pictures of Easters past where we're in winter coats, boots, and long sleeves.  I much prefer sandles and sun. 
"If only the eggs weren't so well hidden..."

"Hooray!"
We are still gorging ourselves on the Easter treats we got in our baskets.  I'm on a sugar high from m&ms and peanut butter cups.  It's a good thing Audrey's too young to know we're eating her treats as well...
HILARIOUS!  ABSOLUTELY HILARIOUS!

"Um, excuse me guys.  Could you keep it down?  I'm discussing yolks..."
Happy  Easter!
