Easter

Easter morning Sam woke up and crept downstairs without us. It broke my heart that she checked out her basket without us, but...in her defense she was excited and no one had told her to wait for us. Sigh...

I always thought we were doing a great job at keeping the true meaning of holidays the main focus, but apparently we could be doing better.

Now...on to the fun!!!! This year in Sam's basket the bunny brought her Molly's backpack (her American Girl doll), Littlest Pet Shops, Connect 4, and of course candy!!! She had asked Santa for Molly's backpack, but his elves ran out!!!! So thankfully the bunny was able to deliver!!!

Skylar's basket had some plastic eggs with Fisher Price Little People in them. She really only wanted the eggs, and didn't care too much for the treasures inside. She however LOVED her stroller and enjoyed pushing it around and walking behind it!

We ate breakfast at church and after church we went to Nana and Papa's house (my mom and dad...ha!) for the afternoon. Papa had set up an egg hunt for the girls (okay mostly Sami) and it was a lot of fun!!!!

We had a great lunch and the girls had more Easter goodies at their house! Skylar got some bath toys which are super fun!!! Sami's favorite items were a new dress for her Molly doll, and a wooden bead set for making jewelry.

At the end of the day we know that Sami knows why we celebrate Easter...and that baskets and eggs are just a fun way to enjoy the day. Let's just hope she remembers to include us in her excitement from now in! :)
