Excuses & Easter

No more excuses.  I'm making it a priority to blog at least once a week from now on.  I get intimidated when I get behind and think there's no way I can catch up.  But for the sake of posterity and because this Mama is not a super-scrapbooker - I must press on so I have documentation of the little squirts growing up!  In the process of trying to catch up, I'm sure I will miss a few things.  Hopefully I'll hit all the biggies though.
 
 And now - Easter!  

The girls were so cute at our church's Easter egg hunt this year.  Though it was rainy and a little chilly, that did not stop them from picking up 3 eggs each in the approximately 3 minutes the actual "hunt" lasted.  Well done, girls!  Go get 'em!  Here are a few fun pics from the event (note: we did not approach the Easter bunny as we did not want a repeat of "Santa Meltdown 2010" to commence.  There's always next year.)

I see an egg and it will be mine.

But Mom, I don't WANT to take a picture with Kate.  Must. Lick. Egg.

I could not love this picture of Kate more.

Uh, guys?  Don't look now, but I'm pretty sure I just laid an egg.

And here are a few pics from Easter morning!

You can tell from her expression.  This one?  She's a stinker.

Sweet Kate LOVES balls.

Just when I think my granddaughters can't get any more precious, they prove me wrong! Kate "laying an egg" is hilarious as is Miss Elle having better things to do than having her picture made with her sister! Love you all!

Ok, I seriously cannot believe how much they've grown up lately! My goodness - so precious! I also love your comments especially about "laying an egg". As always, you crack me up! :)
