Easter ’11: Part Two

We had another eventful Easter with Daniel’s ER visit, but OTHER THAN THAT, it was a beautiful day.  The kids woke up to find their Easter baskets filled with goodies from the Easter Bunny: the traditional chocolate bunny and jelly beans as well as a cool garden magnifying glass and sticker sheets (Thank you Target dollar bin!)  Daniel opened his chocolate bunny in 5 seconds and took a bite.  The perfect breakfast appetizer.

Then we were off to Sunday mass where we could show off our Easter ensembles.  Annabel’s beautiful dress is from The Children’s Place.

After church, we came home to find a visitor in our backyard – one of Easter Bunny’s helpers!  (We named him Brownie.)

Hubbie made a delicious Easter dinner.  GG came over as well as Hubbie’s radio co-host and producer, Miss Anna and Miss Ashley.  We love having the singletons over for holiday dinners.  It’s fun to listen to their stories and it’s just more festive to have extra people around the dinner table.  We had ham, Polish kielbasa, dill potatoes, asparagus, green beans, corn, hard boiled eggs, and a cheesecake dessert.  We were all having so much fun (and drinking lots of white wine) that I forgot to take more photos.

And one final note: Annabel won the annual hard boiled Easter egg cracking contest.  She kicked my butt.
