Easter.....Part 2..

We had a very full day yesterday. We started out the morning by attending church with Chris and family. Of course we had to make 2 Easter services because Avery had 2 Easter dresses (mommy couldn't decide between 2).

Here she is with all her accessories getting ready:
For Christmas Aunt Kathy and Uncle Bill had given her a pearl set (earrings, bracelet, and necklace) so we thought Easter was a great time to debut that set!

At one of my showers for Avery I received this beautiful dress, complete with mini dress for her doll
Avery and her doll in their matching dresses. Please ignore the tape measure....it's her new obsession.

Our little poser in Easter dress #2 (the first one you saw in the last post)

Our big extended family Easter egg hunt was postponed until next weekend due to weather so instead our immediate family gathered at mom's for Easter lunch and a bit of family time.
Me and my baby girl!!

Kolin modeling Avery's bunny ears (she wouldn't wear them)!!

After lunch the kids gathered at the table to color some eggs.
Lots of colors to choose from.

After coloring the real eggs we hid some plastic ones in the yard for Avery to hunt. Since this is her 3rd hunt this year she needed no direction, she just jumped right on it.
She knew exactly what to do when she found an egg....in the basket it goes!!

Mom made her this shirt to wear on Easter. Isn't it fabulous??

She was running so hard trying to get to more eggs, she took a tumble. Don't worry she popped right back up and was at it again in seconds.

She definitely made a haul!!

Our happy hunter!!

Kelby decided to have some fun while she was hunting and start hurdling her. It did not faze her at all, she just kept right on hunting along.

After we came home from mom's the Easter Bunny had left a basket for Avery. Paul had to work a few hours that morning (the joys of retail)so the bunny made a late delivery for us! :)

Checking out her stash from the Easter bunny!!

Wasn't it nice of him to include toothbrushes along with all the candy??

Avery and her daddy. A happy girl after her first family Easter.

We had a great holiday. We were able to experience two worship services, spend some great time with the family, and see our little girl's face light up at all the festivities.

We still have the postponed Easter egg hunt next weekend as well as a mini celebration with Paul's family to go, so we are not done yet.

Hope you all had a very blessed day.

Happy Monday!!
