Happy Easter!

Happy Easter everyone!

Love the holiday...most years the weather turns out pretty decent, so it's a sort of welcome to Spring day. Plus my family (immediate and extended) all get together for dinner. I love it! The free candy isn't so bad, either. ;)

I ended up wearing a really cute outfit, too! I totally forgot, in my haste to find an outfit, that the "Easter Bunny" leaves my siblings and I each some sort of Spring-y clothes or accessories. This year I got a super cute white hat (need to find something to wear with it!) a pink/peachy v-neck tee and a really pretty floral print blue-white-and-pink scarf. I paired it with a pair of pale blue pants I already owned that just-so-happen to match the scarf perfectly, and voila! One awesome outfit for Easter! Here's a pic of me from earlier today:
Me with my cousin Soni's youngest son...cutest moment of the day!
I had a great time spending the day with my fam. Slightly jealous of my cousin Katherine's gorgeous dress, and the adorable one her sister Maddie wore as well...they both look so good in vintage! And it's always great to see them...I just wish we lived a little closer together. My awesome Nana made a delicious vat of some really addicting bean dip of some kind that I absolutely loved! I'll have to ask her for a recipe... My great grandma drove out to be with us, and my grandparents on my dad's side were there as well. It's always a treat to see them all. And I have to thank my Aunt Karen and Uncle Scott for holding Easter dinner at their house again. I don't know how they tolerate our whole crazy family! ;D

So this year was a little different. Not much, but a little. This is the first year I hid the eggs for the Easter Egg Hunt instead of looking for them. And don't say I'm too old for egg hunts, because nobody's EVER too old to go on a competitive search for candy-filled plastic eggs. Ever.

It felt weird, though...like just one more thing to add to my list of "Things I've Outgrown" along with playing in the Play Place at McDonald's and having recess. Why don't they have recess in High School anyway? Or college for that matter? It would make the whole day so much more bearable, don't you think? My lil sis Skye is reading this over my shoulder and says "I can't believe this is my second-to-last year of having recess!" I hear ya, sis. I miss it all the time. :(

Anyway, today was a pretty great day; here's hoping tomorrow will be even better!
