EASTER

Appologies up front for the long post packed with photos.

There just isn't as many photos of Maren these days. She doesn't like to have her picture taken. She dominated the camera for three years of her life. She deserves a break.


We went to my Aunt's house to have an Easter brunch with family to celebrate Easter. 

Great Grandma loves the girls. She eats them up every moment she can. In fact they make her so happy that Gramma brings them over once a week. It is the light of Great Grandma's week. She looks forward to it so. We are happy yo oblige.

Great Aunt Cher, Erin and Kristin did an egg hunt for Maren. That was so sweet! She found eggs filled with coins, marshmallows (her favorite), and fruit snacks (a close second). She had so much fun.

Lillian came down to help but there wasn't much she could do. She could hardly move in this dress. It was so tough for her to crawl in. She went so slow. Moving only a little bit at a time and getting quite frustrated.

Here's where it gets crazy. Each girl got a bucket of goodies in the hunt as well. A welcome change from a basket. However, Maren's bucket included a recorder. 
 Really, a recorder. A three year old with a recorder. I said we were leaving it there and she could play it every time we came over. 
(Somehow, it managed to make it home.)

Sounds pretty doesn't it, Lil?

I had this headband custom made by tootyfruitymonkeyluv to match Lilly's Easter dress. The problem, she doesn't like anything on her head. Don't even try to put her hood up! Yikes.
It is so cute! I could hardly even get a pic.

We had lovely weather. After bruch = outside!
Maren raided the garage.

You think it's hard to crawl in a dress - don't bother with the stairs. 
By the end of the hour she skipped her knees and crawled on her hands and feet with straight legs - so funny! By the time I tried to get a shot of that my battery had died :(

Trying the headband again!

I guess it works as a necklace too.

 Thanks to all who helped make it such a wonderful day!
