Easter Weekend

I am finally getting around to posting about our Easter weekend (no harm if you're so over these posts)! We went up to my in laws for the holiday and had such a nice time. It wound up being just the five of us since David's brother flew with his family to Japan that day and David's younger sister lives in San Diego. Although it was quiet (well 19 month old toddler quiet) it certainly was busy!

Now I have to praise my MIL because she bought P an egg dye kit to do at their house. Brave woman. Surprisingly Presley did extremely well dying her eggs! Aside from her hands coated in dye she was relatively clean and the pictures are some of my favorites. (TIP: Take baking soda and vinegar and make it into a paste. The dye will wash right off your skin with ease!)


My MIL had the brilliant idea to purchase oil cloth at her local fabric store. Made clean up a breeze!







The next day we celebrated with an Easter basket followed with an egg hunt. I was so excited to put P in this dress because I saw it long ago before I was even pregnant! I wanted to purchase it so badly but was worried I would jinx myself so I didn't.

When we got pregnant a couple months later and found out we were having a girl I was in a mad hunt to find the dress. I scored it on eBay, brand new with tags, and its been waiting in a closet for two years! I hope it will one day be worn on her own daughter. It's easily my most favorite outfit of hers.

    I love the pictures of P dying eggs. She looks so into it and like she did a really good job. The eggs are beautiful. :) love that dress and the bunny shoes just make it all cuter.

    These photos are perfection! And you guys are so brave to dye eggs with a toddler. There is NO WAY I was doing that with my kids. :( Maybe when they're teenagers.

    I am so not over these posts! I love every single one!

    I thought it couldn't get any cuter than her dyeing eggs but then she was opening her Easter basket and THEN she was wearing her blue dress and shoes!! So so so sweet.

    SO CUTE!!! Sounds like you guys had a wonderful Easter! Sometimes smaller is better because you really get to enjoy the holiday, and I'm sure David's parents were excited to get some one on one time with P!
    Also, your MIL is one brave woman (and one smart woman with those hidden tips!) to do that egg dying with Presley!
