Easter Weekend 2016




 Saturday morning we all went to the Easter event at church.
 We first got our tickets to listen to the Easter story.

 Then we headed to face painting . . .
 Madison asked for a butterfly on a branch.
 The finished products!
 And with Grandma!
 Then they won cupcakes at the cake walk!
 Then they painted/decorated eggs!

 Egg race time!
 Egg Tic-Tac-Toe!
 Saturday evening we had a family party and dinner at our house!
Maci and Madi were sitting in the egg toss buckets!
 They followed clues around the house for a scavenger hunt that led to chocolate bunnies for each of them!
 One clue led them to the bathroom!
 Then they went outside to hunt Easter eggs! 
 SO EXCITED!

 Then we played pin the tail on the bunny!
 Madi won!
 Matt even got in on the fun!
 Maci was close too!
 Easter morning goodies!
 The problem with having a tall daddy that hides the Easter eggs!
 Beautiful Sunday morning smile!
 The weather was beautiful Sunday afternoon so Madi shot her BB gun a little.

 Did some yoga!
 And rode her bike while we walked behind her with the dogs!
Then we headed home so Matt could grill us some jalapeno poppers and BBQ chicken for dinner.

Easter Week

 Back to school on Monday!
 Tuesday was a warm day!
 Wednesday
 I had to wait a few minutes while picking her up on Wednesday after school which made me think how grateful I am that I am able to take and pick her up every day!
 Thursday is our Friday!
 We ran to Walmart Friday morning.  Taking a break on the dog food aisle!
 We met the cousins for lunch at Chick-fila then spent the afternoon at the park!
 They love climbing trees!
 And looking at the water.
 Saw this picture of Tucker singing on Palm Sunday on the church website. 
Sad we missed it!

Washington DC - Part V

 Dressed and ready for Uncle Jacob and Aunt Bonnie's Wedding!
  The headband and bracelets that Bonnie gave Madison were a perfect addition to her dress.
 Bonnie's Aunt Wendy tied the perfect green bow so Madison was all set!
 Most beautiful flower girl I've ever seen!
 I LOVE this picture of Aunt Erin, Madison and Grandma!
 Then it was time for us to get ready!
Madi & Me
 Daddy & Madi - Man he cleans up nice!
 Pictures with the bride . . .

 And then the groom . . .
 Entertaining ourselves while family pictures were taking place!


 Sweet Archer was dressed to impress and boy he didn't disappoint!
 Seriously the cutest flower girl and ring bearer EVER!
 Anxious for the wedding to begin!
 Madison loved her flower ball that she carried down the aisle.
 And the corsage was beautiful on her wrist!
 I left Madison with Aunt Erin and off I went to find my seat!
 My handsome wedding date!
 And so it begins . . .
