Easter 2011

We had a restful and peaceful Easter here in Decorah last weekend. I enjoyed laying low and getting the opportunity to take a nap every single day! We probably should have started packing up the kitchen, but decided to just soak up a weekend at home and not stress ourselves out quite yet.

The weather was rather cool and occasionally rainy, so we didn't do all that much but did venture outside a little each day. Olivia and Brian were great pals with Brian tackling small projects around the house while Olivia followed him along playing babies and convincing Brian to haul her baby stroller up and down the stairs a million times. Gracie reinstated her obsession with mommy over the weekend, and also became the queen of silly.

On Sunday we had a wonderful meal at Brian's aunt's house, and then after naps, we had an Easter egg hunt at Pat and Roger's. I'll let the pictures tell the rest of the story!

Off to church...

Snapped this picture of my lovely Livy while I was honing up on my camera skills. Sleepy girl - staying quiet in church was hard work!

Gracie caught on to Easter egg hunting right away - she's up to trying anything that Olivia can do.

Liv was definitely not interested in sitting still and getting her picture taken - or much less even looking at the camera.


Pretty sweet little sisters - if only they'd looked up!

Happy First Easter Gracie!

Hmmm...Do we have a little stinker in the making here? I think so...
