Baskets of Easter eggs

Since I was going out of town this week for work, and didn't get back until this evening, I missed our Easter egg hunt at church today. To make up for it, Elizabeth and I spent most of last weekend practicing for the big event by hiding and finding our own eggs:







My plan was actually twofold. Sure, it was fun to still get to share part of the experience with her. But, I actually wanted to make sure we didn't have a repeat of last year - when she practically refused to pick up any eggs because she thought they were "dirty." And, both plans seemed to work, because this morning at the actual Easter egg hunt she ran right out and collected eggs like a pro.








You'll notice from her clothes that it was actually much warmer last weekend than this weekend. That's April in the Bluegrass for you! (I'm trying not to gloat about the beautiful weather we had in Florida this past week, since the weather was pretty nasty in Kentucky while I was gone...)

Then, after I finally made it home tonight, we dyed our Easter eggs.





Of course, no Easter eggs are complete without tiaras and princess egg holders:



- at least in the eyes of our little Princess!

Hope everyone has a very Happy Easter!
