Happy Easter, Happy Spring!

We had such a fun Easter weekend with my mom here. Friday afternoon we did our traditional Good Friday lunch at the Olive Garden. Saturday, we did an egg hunt at the park across the street from the Great Dane, then went over to have an absolutely delicious lunch at the pub. Later that afternoon my mom watched Kate while Dan & I saw Titanic in theaters (I was excited beyond words to see my favorite movie on the big screen again). Sunday, we went to church at the Methodist church downtown (they have amazing music), then came home, looked for our baskets, opened gifts, and then Kate took a brief nap before we went to Tracy's for a late lunch. The Easter Bunny had come to the Hines' household, too, so there was an Easter egg hunt for all three girls. Then Dan drove my mom to the airport around 4:45 in time for her 6:15 flight. All in all, the perfect Easter day.


Such a silly cheesy grin!

"So I need to fill this bag up with those eggs... got it."


"Hmm. The egg is in there. Now what do I do?"

"What on earth is this woman doing to me?"








Such a pretty girl in such a pretty dress!

So much more involved in the egg hunt than she was two years ago (see the next picture for proof; why, she slept through the whole thing!)

Kate loves playing with Rori


Yeah, my eyes are closed, but everyone else looks great, so oh well
