Easter 2016

The day before Easter we woke up early

for the egg hunt at our local grocer,

Mariano's.

We have done this one quite a few times

and found they are very generous 

with the eggs!

Plus, for at least the 3rd time 

(maybe 4th...we can't remember!)

Mila found the "special" egg 

for her age group and won

a big Easter basket!

We started Easter morning off right-- 

with Easter baskets

and lots of chocolate before 7:30am.

Later we read the Easter story to the girls

and headed out to brunch.

We enjoyed a tasty Southern

 buffet at Frontier. 

Mila LOVED the biscuits. 

Mom loved the grits.

Willow loved the cookies.

Dad loved the ham.

Speaking of ham!!!

Mommy and her big girl, the OG.

"Ho you" is Willow speak for 

"Hold me please right now or 

I will keep saying 'ho you'  

a hundred more times."

...it was uttered a lot this Easter morning.

We didn't mind too much. 

After brunch we took a walk, 

it was really nice out.

A little later Mila rode her bike around the park 

with Mommy jogging behind for 2.5 miles (!) 

while Dad and Lolo hung out in the playground.

Take a good look at that 

lower middle tooth on the left

before it's gone for good...

Mila's first loose tooth is hanging by thread! 

She may or may not have been bribed 

with candy to sit for this picture.

Say "Reese's!"

These two made sure we had a happy,

yummy, family-filled Easter.

Hope you did too!
