Easter

We had a fun Easter weekend! The way timing worked out, Easter fell on the weekend before we closed on the sell of our home, so things were not as organized and elaborate as they may have been otherwise. We had just enough fun to enjoy this special holiday, though!



The week leading up to Easter, the girls had their annual egg hunt at Primrose. They got to meet the Easter bunny which went over surprisingly well for Nora. By well I mean that she took a picture with him, but didn't necessarily love it. The girls were happy with their egg hunt treasures!

Ready for a fun day at school!

Nora & her great friend Griffin looking so cute

Janie is egg-hunt ready!

Counting those eggs...

Opening the eggs!

Happy girls



We had some backyard fun with friends & dyed real Easter eggs!


I took Nora with me to big church for the Good Friday service. I like going to these special services throughout the year, especially the night ones, but it is hard with bedtime.


We also went on Easter Sunday in the morning, had breakfast at church, and participated in the resurrection egg activity that they had for the kids. We had never seen this type of activity and I thought it was super sweet for an Easter message for kids!





We had an egg hunt at home as well as checked out Easter baskets, full of fun goodies!




Cute new dresses from Grandma!






We were able to see lots of family, eat yummy food, and go on another egg hunt at Mimi & Pops' house!











It was a fun weekend with our little bunnies! {I found her like this the next morning...}

Spring Break

Spring Break is here!!

The girls have spent a lot of time at school this week while Justin works & I get some things done around the house, but we have had a little bit of fun, too.

We went to see Zootopia with some friends from my school and the girls liked the movie & the popcorn, too!


One day, we spent a long morning at the Dallas Arboretum with Grandma, Amy, and cousin Hunter. We went to the Children's Garden for the first time and the kids had a lot of fun!


Snacking on the bench. How cute are they?!


Cousin love.


Janie was having a blast checking out this squirrel.

It was nearly impossible to get them together & smiling in a picture 
so I am calling individual smiling pictures a win.


Water break!


The pink tulips were Janie's favorite!


Loved the water spot in the Children's Garden area!





Love!

A great week that always teases me for summer vacation!!
