Easter Weekend 2009

We started Easter weekend by visiting Amelia’s cousin Lena Friday morning.  Here they are being so cute together – it was hard to pick just a few photos – they were adorable during their photo shoot.  They held hands, they played with each others feet, they giggled… I love that Amelia has a cousin so close in age and in the same city that she can grow up with.  You can tell they are related even though they look different from one another.  They have a similarity about them.

After Lena’s, we made the short trek up to Kaykay and Grandpa Joe’s cabin.  Kaykay was very generous and provided a basket and eggs for AMelia to have her very own Easter egg hunt.  She loved it!  Somewhere along the way she learned to say ‘mine’ when she picked up each egg for her basket – oh well.  Look how proud she is with all her eggs though.  (It was colder than expected, so she had to be bundled up – no cute Easter dress for the egg hunting.)

After egg hunting, Amelia got to open the eggs.  She was very excited to find ducks in them!

Easter morning arrived with a basket from the Easter bunny – but that will be in videos to come later this week.  For now I will leave you with an image of my girl trying her first peep (its really hard to find good Easter candy for a dairy, egg and peanut allergic toddler).  True to form, she wasn’t a fan of the sweet and gave it back to me after the photo.  More for mom I guess!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter weekend.
