The Easter Holiday!
Easter was spent playing, cooking, and spending time with family. We had awoke that morning to Taylor calling to us from her bedroom, asking for the Easter Bunny! When we all got ready for the day, Taylor realized that the Easter Bunny had visited and delivered an Easter basket and had hidden all of the eggs we had colored! She first dove into the basket and received some stickers, nail polish and candy. Taylor went right for the candy, immediately eating M&M's! She then ran around the house looking for eggs, and every time she found one she yelled "I found it!" She would place the egg in the bin and continue looking for more! She got so excited about the idea of eating the eggs that she smashed one on the fireplace, almost as to ensure that we would let her eat one right then! She eat a couple of them and then went for more chocolate! We had a great morning, playing and goofing around, and then Bushka and Grandpa Mike came by for dinner. Taylor wore her yellow dress with her baby crocs, while I cooked ham, sweet potatoes and a green bean casserole. After dinner we topped it off with Dutch Apple Pie! All the food was delicious! Taylor received a basket from my mother which contained jewelry, candy and cookies! Needless to say Taylor had a great sugar high all night! It was great to spend time with family and we all had a great day. We all feel so blessed!
