We hosted Easter at our house this year. In addition to the usual gang for holiday get togethers (Grandma, Grandpa, Nana, Pops, Aunt Amy, Uncle Chris and Uncle Rik), Aunt Dawn and Uncle Steve flew in from Maryland with their dog Jules. They were present for decorating Easter eggs- a yearly tradition that always results in myself being crowned 'Best Egg Decorator of the Year'. Ok, so maybe I don't always win....

Bunny ears weren't required but were recommended.
Of course the Easter bunny had brought Elise a basket and hid eggs in the living room. The eggs were filled with pennies (a favorite!). Once the hunt was over, Elise insisted they be re-filled and hid again.

Everyone contributed to the brunch. We had so much food-- ham, turkey, quiche, kielbasa with sauerkraut, deviled eggs, fruit kabobs, vegetables, bread, cupcakes ... just to name a few!
Much to our surprise, the Easter bunny came! He passed out chocolate bunnies for everyone and baby wipes for Cecilia and Hadley.
Elise also got a white bunny that sang 'Peter Cottontail'. I'd like to personally thank the Easter Bunny for contributing yet another singing animal to our house. Elise loves them so. However, Mommy and Daddy love it when the batteries die and are deemed 'broken'.
