Easter!

Easter weekend started off with dying Easter eggs, one of our very favorite traditions! 

As always, Brett took the job seriously and didn't break any eggs!

We took turns holding Camden so he could see the action....and even let him dye a couple eggs of his own (not pictured due to the high supervision needed!).

Where's Camden?

Then, on Easter Sunday, we hosted dinner at our house for the first time! Most of our family live out of town or had other plans, so we had a small group of just my mom (my dad couldn't make it because he was home in bed with Shingles....no fun!), aunt and uncle, my cousin Jon, his wife, Alyssa, and their beautiful daughter, Ines. It was a gorgeous day filled with sunshine, blue skies, warm temperatures (I think it got up to 70 degrees!), good food, and wonderful company!

This was the first Easter egg hunt for Camden and Ines, so Brett enjoyed showing them the ropes on how it's done!

"See Camden, you put the eggs in here."

As you can see, he learned quickly and enjoyed this new 'game'!

It didn't take long for him to discover what was inside...yummy chocolate that he surely couldn't resist!

Ines is a year older than Camden and they were very curious about each other. There were hugs, gently pats, and cries from Ines when Camden pulled her hair!

Brett and his stash. Thankful for this sweet picture since he was too fast during the Easter egg hunt to get any good ones!

Still melts my heart to see them play together!

After playing outside and hunting for Easter eggs, we all went inside for a delicious Easter dinner of ham, mashed potatoes, salad, grilled asparagus, and deviled eggs (one of my all time favorites!). It was so nice to be able to host a true family dinner around a dining room table, instead of scattering around the house like we had to do at our old house! I am so bummed, because as usual, I was too in the moment (which is a good thing at the time, right?) to remember to take any group shots. I guess that just means that we will need to host again soon! :-)
