Easter

Holidays just keep getting better and better. Jayla gets so into them, and believe it or not, she actually remembers Easter last year (this girl's memory blows our minds...more about that on another post).

The day before Easter, we colored our eggs. Of course Jay enjoyed every second of it, and she actually enjoyed eating those eggs, for days to come.


She's very creative lately, and wanted to see what a dyed egg would look like re-dyed another color...

The finished product!

The Easter bunny visited our house, while Jayla was spending her FIRST night with her Nana and Papa (Jearel and I both had to work the night before). When I arrived that morning to pick her up, she REFUSED to leave, even after knowing there were presents waiting for her. Her only concern was, "is the Easter bunny on my trampoline?" Silly girl!

After finally getting home, so was beyond happy. Especially after seeing all her presents, and her "Alice doll" (she might just own ALL of the Disney store now)


Presents sent from her Grandma and Grandpa Skorstad (thank you, again).
She is one spoiled little lady!

She LOVED searching for all the eggs. She had the same response to every egg she found, "I GOTCHA *big smiles*".


Opening all those eggs. She got lots of money for her piggy bank!

Later that afternoon, we headed off to Jearel's Aunt and Uncle's house. We always have the best over there; great food, good company, and so much fun.

Jay and her Auntie Jennifer

Kingston, Jayla's cousin, got an extra special present from the Easter bunny...
These baby chicks.

Jayla and Kingston playing.

What a little CUTIE!!

We ended our night, at home, hanging outside (enjoying the last of the beautiful weather), watching Jay play with her new chalk.


Happy (late) Easter to everyone!

Alice & Ariel are my FAVEs of those plush dolls- love them (almost as much as Camden & Jay!) Love her little grin in the photo of her holding Alice. Funny 'cuz those were the 1ST things Camden went for when we came over for Jayla's bday party! She only has 2, so she probably thought Jayla was the LUCKIEST girl alive!

I was definitely bummed we missed out on an egg hunt this year (with the out-of-town wedding & all), but it's ON next year, and we'll have both of our kiddos hunting!

Kingston has gotten SO big & cute!
