happy easter!

We started off our Easter weekend on Friday morning with a family breakfast out. Britton wore her Easter dress and we ordered a stack of pancakes, eggs, and bacon galore.



Then Saturday morning it was off to the neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt with Memaw and PawPaw. We raced home from our monthly Home Depot Kid's Workshop (made a bird feeder!) to throw Britton into the wagon and get down to the neighborhood park. Britton was excited for her egg hunt, and probably the most excited about the candy!







The name of this candy cracks me up. "Jesus Promise Seeds." Huh?



Britton learned a lesson about the black jelly beans - black licorice is gross!



Then that afternoon PawPaw, the hub, and I went to the shooting range.



My first shot was that bullseye in the middle of the target. Of course, it took me ten minutes to line it up!



And Easter without coconut cake? Egads! I made Bobby Flay's Toasted Coconut Cake with Coconut Buttercream (make it yourself here) and Memaw made her patented bunny cake.




Then this morning Britton woke up to her Easter basket that the Easter Bunny dropped off. She insisted on some candy immediately, but we convinced her to eat a real breakfast before gorging on chocolate and jelly beans!




Then we dyed hard-boiled eggs, and I later made them into deviled eggs with dinner.



Britton loved her markers from Memaw and PawPaw.



And the hub taught her to write a "t." You can see two t's below right next to each other.




And Britton's "n."



The hub predicts Britton will be a tattoo artist based on her excitement at drawing all over PawPaw! She was right due for a bath after all the marker drawing.



Hoppy Easter!
