Easter: Food, Food, and more FOOD!



What an awesome Easter weekend! On Saturday we went to my Aunt Marie and Uncle Kenny’s for an egg hunt and egg decorating. For dinner we had Dutch-oven chili with the most amazing salad (it put Café Rio to shame!) and the softest, most succulent rolls. Not only did I go back for 2nds, but I had another entire plate full! Marie must have hid about 100 candy-filled eggs and with little competition, Sonja took home about half. She had so much fun decorating eggs, and some of the adults did too!

On Sunday morning, Sonja found her Easter baskets waiting for her when she woke up. She got a Princesses helmet, Princesses water bottle, Princess sandals, (do you see a theme here?) Princesses stickers, A Light in the Attic by Shel Silverstein, the Enchanted Soundtrack, clothes, and yes… More candy. What a spoiled little mamacitas! Then, we went to my Aunt Elaine and Uncle Mike’s for more delicious food, and yet another egg hunt. This time, Sonja had no competition and cleaned the place out. There was just enough of a breeze for my dad and Angel to get a kite up in the air, but not enough to keep us from soaking up as much sun as we could. We had fun watching Grace take some wobbly steps with her walker out in the grass, and Sonja put on a dance performance on her stage (the deck) for everyone to enjoy. It was really a perfect weekend! Happy Easter!
