Easter x 2!


Yes, it is true....the Easter Bunny visited our house twice this year! He came one week early while our Daddy was still in town, then again the next week
(thanks to Grandma Debbie leaving some extra Easter treats for the kids!).

You would think this photo was of our second Easter, but no, this was the first! Priceless expression on our Lily!



Cole was more interested in the Easter grass, but this bunny on wheels was quite fascinating too!


Yeah for Easter!

We stayed pretty busy Easter weekend (you have to pack the days in when you are adjusting to the first weekend of many without Daddy for a bit.....)
So, we dyed eggs.....

Made delicious sugar cookies....

Made a beehive cake....

...and to top it all off, indulged in a yummy Easter feast!!!


We had a wonderful holiday and are so grateful for the true meaning of Easter.
We love you and miss you Daddy!

(you gotta love self timers...Cole, not so much)

Cole is One!!!!

One year ago our little buddy joined our family!

Over the past twelve months, I have learned some things about my little boy....

1. He throw things, instinctively
2. He eats, and eats, and eats
3. He loves to cuddle
4. He loves the box of Efferdent in the bathroom (don't ask why I have Efferdent)
5. His favorite place in the world is Lily's room

Our good friend Michelle made his cake....one big one for the family, and a special little cake just for the birthday boy! We think Michelle should enter the Food Network's cake competitions!



Not so sure about the party hat, but LOVE the cake!!!


The best part about being a parent :)
