Easter Festivities

We had a wonderful Easter weekend. We kicked things off by trying out Elaina's new sidewalk chalk from my sister and her family. Elaina enjoyed drawing the letter "E". (It doesn't look like much of an "E", but this is what she calls it.)

She also tried out a Peep from Grammy and Papaw. She was only able to take a few bites before she handed it to me and said "all done".

Of course, we had to dye a few Easter eggs. Unfortunately, eggs slightly resemble a ball, and Elaina is pretty good at throwing a ball. Needless to say, we had a few casualties.

We did end up with a few colored eggs.

On Sunday morning, Elaina was excited to see her Easter basket filled up with goodies. In an attempt to get her to look at the camera, we were singing "If you're happy and you know it". This is the "and your face will surely show it" part. (I think they work on these movements at daycare- I didn't even know she knew this song until it came on one of her CDs and she started clapping- too cute!)

After the church service, we snapped a few pictures of a pretty girl in her pretty Easter dress.

She also enjoyed an Easter egg hunt. She kept handing them to me so I would get the candy out for her- we gave her way too much sugar throughout the day.

Happy Easter from the Rusts!
