Upon returning home from New Jersey, and getting dressed up in our Easter finest, we took a couple of minutes to take some pictures by the pink dogwood tree in our backyard.
We may have missed the cherry blossoms, but at least our backyard can provide a nice backdrop!
Daddy, Ellie, and Evie take a closer look at Virginia's state flower, coincidentally also Virginia's state tree.
Upon arriving at Ba and Opa's house, Evie takes some time to water the azaleas, ever the little gardener. Evie, what grows in your garden - Easter eggs?
Ellie seemed to know how cute she looked in her dress. Here she is doing a little can-can!
The family pauses for a picture - next time Marc and I will have to wear our matching outfits so we look as good as the girls!
And then the Easter egg hunt began! Along with eggs, Evie found some neat toys the Easter Bunny had left behind like a bird whistle.
Ellie, after having her milk, was excited to get in the action!
The first egg found!
Ellie likes being in Ba's arms so she can get a good birds-eye view of the possible hiding spots.
Evie has some good giggles for Mommy's attempts to juggle some eggs, although Ellie is not impressed.
Opa gets into the picture too with his mind-blowing science kit, which he and Evie played with after dinner. She learned all about bases and acids.
Now, Ellie finds a blue egg hidden in the pansies.
She looks a little suspicious of the egg in the azaleas.
So serious, our little one!
Out of their dressy clothes, the kids let loose. Mommy practices her Dancing with the Stars moves with Ellie.
While Evie paints, Ellie puts her legs up and enjoys the ride! What a great Easter - thanks Ba and Opa!
