Easter 2017!

Monday, April 17, 2017

Hi friends! I hope you all had a wonderful Easter weekend! This year was our most fun yet, because Baylee is finally old enough to really "get" the Easter Bunny and dyeing Easter Eggs side of Easter. (We will definitely start working more on the true reason for Easter next year when she has a better understanding of Jesus :) She's not quite there yet.) We really had such a blast with her!


We dyed our Easter eggs on Friday morning, and Baylee did great. She didn't make the slightest mess at all, and had so much fun picking what color would come next. Blue is her favorite color currently, so of course, her "Baylee" egg had to be blue!





On Saturday, we went to a local, little town known for their orchards of apple trees where we go apple picking in the Fall. In the Spring they host their annual "Apple Blossom Festival". We had never gone before, so we decided to check it out this year. It was so cute and quaint, and we had a great time! Baylee got to ride a pony and meet the Easter Bunny, and we got to do some shopping, sample hard cider, learn how to throw a tomahawk, and eat apple donuts. I wish I had brought a nicer camera than my phone, because the land alone there is just so beautiful!  





On Easter Sunday, we woke up a little earlier than normal because Baylee has a little cold so her nose was bothering her, but it didn't stop her from having a magical morning. She loved going through all the fun stuff that the Easter Bunny brought her in her Easter Basket, and then running all around our living room to find her eggs! I'm pretty sure she ate at least 10 jelly beans when I wasn't looking, and within an hour of opening everything had all of us covered in baby chick and ladybug stickers. For breakfast, we made French toast with Nutella and strawberries. Soooo bad but sooo good! :)






In the evening, we went to my Dad's house for a ribeye roast, roasted carrots, and mashed potatoes. It was a delicious, "homey" meal with the family, and I enjoyed it so much! After dinner we had some wine with angel food cake, cool whip, and strawberries. A perfect way to end a perfect Easter Sunday. :)



I am so very blessed! 
He is risen!


Until next time! XoXoXo
