Easter Weekend!

We had a wonderful Easter Weekend and Day filled with fun, friends, family and faith! As you saw on Friday we colored Easter eggs with Aunt Sarah and Hunter. On Saturday we joined Aunt Sarah and Hunter for breakfast and then we went to a community Easter Egg Hunt at Gilbert High School. Wendy (Emmalee's babysitter) and her daughters Heavin and Hailey met us there for some fun! It was a beautiful day (a little warm) but we all had a wonderful time. As you can see they even had bouncies - one was just the right size for Emmalee, she did not want to leave once she figured out it was okay to bounce. She has been in them before but it has been with her older brothers - this time she was on her own.

Emmalee awoke to find the Easter Bunny had delivered an Easter basket in her room. Before we got her out of her bed I kept asking her if the Easter Bunny had come to visit and she kept telling me "No" When we picked her up out of her bed she saw the basket, she looked at it a couple of times and then smiled at Rob and I and said "More Pease" - I don't know how she knew it was something to eat but she did. Daddy gave her a whole peanut butter chocolate egg and she loved every bite of it. Papa Jim, Nana Phyllis came over and helped cook and clean. Kelly (my cousin on my Mom's side of the family) and her husband Justin along with one of our best friends - Dennis and the boys joined us for dinner- We had nine in all. It was a very nice day, we had dinner outside on the back patio - the weather was wonderful! I have to say the Ham turned out fantastic. We hope you had a wonderful Easter!!!

Love always, Jill, Rob, Josh, Brad, Emmalee, Papa Jim and Nana
