Easter 2010

Easter had so many celebrations this year and for that reason it has taken me so long to get all these pictures loaded. We had the Woodberry Forest Easter Egg Hunt, decorating Easter eggs and cookies with Sierra and Sophia, our home celebration of Easter, and finally the Easter Parade in Richmond, VA. We are wondering if Harper will like Easter better than Christmas, at least with the number of ways we celebrated. Harper in her Easter dress from Papa and Kat...as always she loves being with her "buddy" Watson.
Admiring someone's flowers in the "fan" of Richmond. We are trying to take every opportunity to work on our colors.
Erin captured this sweet moment with our little lady. I feel like this picture expresses what it feels like to be a mom.
Harper admiring the petting zoo on the median of Monument Avenue...these poor little guys were roasting.
Look at those rosy little cheeks, it was a little toasty out. We managed to stay cool with lots of water and lemonade.

After brunch at Stawberry Street and the parade, we needed a short snooze.

Waking up to a still bustling parade and lots more fun to be had.

"Brow-an" or Brian (Harper prefers her version! Brian might too!) and Hunt walking the Ave before it got too crazy.
Getting settled for our stroll.

Our Easter Booty!

The masterpiece cookies we made with our Woodberry girls...not sure where we were going with that bunny?! The flower and carrot turned out okay and they all tasted even better than they looked. Thanks Sarah and Em for pulling this dual activity off with the girls.

Sierra was the first to enjoy decorating and wearing her cookie...this picture does no justice. She was having such a good time with her cookie, and why wouldn't she?!

Sculpting our masterpieces, you must use all fingers.

Our end result of our "marblized" easter eggs. I guess we won't be display these at the Smithsonian or anything but the girls enjoyed their first dyeing party.

Em and Sierra working their magic.

Sierra waiting to dive in. Pure patience.

Harper and her favorite pastime - stirring!

Oh, my gosh! Elmo easter eggs, we cannot believe it.

Starting to get the concept of "loading up" and not just "opening up".

I think Easter and Christmas this coming year will be NUTZ! The lightbulbs have started going off-we get it now! Bye-Bye Easter, we are sad to see you go!
