Happy Easter

The Easter bunny came, bringing a few gifts and lots of jelly bean filled eggs

Post church pics...

Once I finally put the camera away, Lily whipped out a few Easter presents…swimsuit, goggles, and a water gun…and started a water fight with the whole family.  Lots of giggles and fun memories on our Easter morning!

Easter Egg Hunt

Our neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt!

A surprise appearance by the Easter bunny as well as baby chicks and bunnies made for a very special afternoon with our neighborhood friends!  William was beyond thrilled with the animals but was absolutely terrified of the Easter bunny…he would start screaming and running away each time he noticed the bunny was anywhere near him.  

A week with Nanny

Nanny had Lily and William all by herself for EIGHT DAYS!

Luckily, she seems to still be talking to me and loving her grand babies. :)

We received numerous photos of their activities while she was in charge.

lots of tea parties, inside and out

a visit to the Simple Farm, one of our favorite places

hours and hours of dress up

(Lily is a bride getting married to her prince)

and of course a visit to Scottsdale Gymnastics!

Where were Ryan and I? Key West!

Thank you to Ryan for his hard work last year, and his company for inviting us on this amazing trip! 

And thank you to Nanny for giving up a week, loving on our kiddos, and allowing us to go on a MUCH needed vacation.

We appreciate and love her more than words can express!
