This year was the first year we really did up Easter. What I mean by that was we actually did alittle more than just let Chloe find her basket. This year we placed arrows and eggs around the house, or should I say the Easter bunny did. When she got up she had to follow the arrows and by each arrow there was an egg, which is how she got her Easter money. At the end of the line was her and Caelyn's Easter baskets. Chloe thought it was really neat. We didn't hide the eggs too hard because she honestly had never done an egg hunt before. We tried to go to one this year but we were 5 minutes late and all the eggs were gone. I know, I couldn't believe it either. So she just played on the swing set with Miss A.
Like every year we go to my grandma and grandpa Parkin's house (AKA: GiGi and PoPo). They always have Easter dinner at their house. Every year it's the same thing, ham sandwiches, mostaccioli , potato salad, salad, baked beans, and desserts (Christmas is predictable too.) This year some of the great aunts decided to reinstate the Easter egg hunt. Each kid was allowed 20 eggs (Caelyn was not included since she can't walk). Chloe did a great job finding them, with then help of mom, dad, grandpa, and grandma. I was alittle worried that she wouldn't know what to do, boy was I wrong. She was one of the first to get all her eggs. She was a mad woman..lol. All her change that she got was put in her piggy bank to save. It was a good time.
Chloe loves going to GiGi and PoPo's to play with all her cousin's she doesn't get to see on a regular basis. She especially loves Meagan and Gryphon. Meagan has babysat for us before and Gryphon has been at the lake with his Grandma and Grandpa (Uncle Rick and Aunt Cheryl, Gryphon's parents are Heidi and Tom). This time they played soccer. It was too cute. All in all we all had fun catching up, talking and playing with family.
