Easter 2012

Yeah, I’m a month late – but better late than never.

Easter was SO great this year! I am really loving our new way of celebrating holidays with our families.  We used to cram both families in ON the actual holiday, leaving no time for our little family. We felt rushed and exhausted by the end of the day – which doesn’t make much of a celebration. For Easter – we took the whole weekend to celebrate and it worked out so nicely.

We spent Saturday evening with the Makanani’s – doing and Easter egg hunt in the backyard followed by a delicious dinner. On Sunday, we woke up and Jackson and I made pancakes together. We went on a long walk, just our little family of 4 and fed the ducks – it was PERFECT!

Sunday evening, we ended our weekend celebration with dinner with the Sogn’s (my family) and bubbles on the deck with Auntie Becky.  It was a wonderful weekend – even though Jackson HATES the Easter Bunny (see picture below).


This was a “throw my kid on the bunny’s lap and run” kind of a picture. Turned out nicely, I think ;)
