Easter Recap!

Oh, Easter Weekend...
There is nothing like blogging out in the sunshine, am I right? Except for the squinty eye/screen glare problem, but I'm so toasty I can totally deal with that. Today's temperature is floating around 60 degrees here in Philadelphia, so Lilly and I are out enjoying some sunshine, sidewalk chalk, bubble blowing and spring blooms. Which is such a nice relaxing change from this weekend.

Our Easter Weekend was the busiest weekend we've had in a long time. I felt like Easter crept up on us, and I didn't plan ahead for much of anything. Like dying Easter eggs. Oopsies. I am probably going to do it later this week simply because I bought the kit, and it's the one time I bother making hard boiled eggs.



On Friday our friends had their baby, after a long and stressful few days of labor and surgery! I love babies. We went to the hospital to meet the little man and visit with them, and relax a little bit. He's totally gorgeous and fluffy and wrinkly, and of course, I can never show up to the hospital empty handed. Since her first child is in kindergartner (how did that happen?), it's been a little while since she's been laid up for a while, I had to pack her a little gift bag full of things I couldn't live without when I had Lilly. I'm doing a post on the bag itself, but my favorite thing in it was the mustache pacifier clip I made to match the creeper from Old Navy that has grey and black mustaches all over it.



Saturday was jam packed with a baseball game and a carnival. We have season tickets for the Phillies, so I guess you could say I'm one of those baseball people. I live in 2 seasons - baseball season and counting down to spring training. My husband is totally not like this. It's just me. So we had a beautiful day at the ballpark, I even got a bit crispy in the sun. Too bad they lost. Womp womp.


The carnival was a lot of fun because Lilly actually went on rides *without* us! We went with our niece and nephew, and Lilly was so excited she rode a bunch of things and didn't freak out or cry. Who got nervous and teared up when she was having a great time on a rocket ship with her cousins? ME. What?! Pathetic.



Easter day was a ton of fun - finding the Easter Bunny had left tons of treats, church, egg hunt, family brunch. Jam packed! I loved the way the Golden Easter Basket turned out, and Lilly loved her yellow dinosaur.


She even found the eggs from the Easter Bunny and enjoyed the candies he left her.



I should drop him an email though; he really needs to hide them a little better next year, because they were a little too obvious. So noted. The church egg hunt was far superior, the ones she found were in the flowers. Also noted.



I am so glad this weekend is over! Today was just so stress-free and relaxing. I'm ready to start another week! Wait, did I really just say that?

So, how was your Easter?
