Happy Easter!

Julia had a great Easter. She was really into finding eggs, especially those with candy in them. We started off our Easter celebration with our playgroup on Friday and they had an egg hunt there. It was so cute to watch them all and how excited and proud they were that they got some eggs. Julia would get one and shake it to see if something was in there, and if there was she would open it up before she would go to any other eggs. Then on Saturday Jim and I had our egg hunt here at the house. She again would open the egg before she would find another one. She loved her Easter basket; which was filled with Sesame Street characters. She is very into Sesema Street due to her collection of SS books. Then we headed off to a big Easter egg hunt in downtown Snoqualmie (pictures below). It was very windy so Julia was pretty cold but bucked up and participated in the egg hunt. It was insane how many people were there, but it was broken up into sections by age so it was well organized and Julia didn't have to compete with 10 year olds for eggs. Saturday afternoon we headed to Opa and Nana's house at Vashon Island and stayed the night. We didn't get to play on the beach too much as all of Sunday it was raining, but Saturday afternoon Julia was walking up and down the beach and throwing balls for Lucy. Lucy played so hard she couldn't even get into the car on Sunday to come home, she was too sore so I had to pick her up to get in the car. Sunday all of Julia's cousins came out to the beach and she got to run around and play with them for hours. Although she did nap through the Easter egg hunt, but that is OK, she already had 3 and enough candy. Anyway, it was a great weekend and a nice little getaway!
