{Easter}

Early morning Easter basket hunt!

Found it!!

Love Meme's face!

Sisters Forever!!!!


Sunday evening we had some friends over for an Easter potluck. Brilliant idea if I do say so - lots of friends - lots of great food - and no one person stuck with cooking and cleaning everything. Great work, team!

After dinner we had an Easter egg hunt with the kiddos.





It was so fun to see them run all over and find those colorful eggs. 





So excited by all that candy goodness!





Chocolate face!



Enjoying their spoils!




After the egg hunt the ladies chatted inside....

While the menfolk watched the kids outside.

We were so blessed to be surrounded by such great friends this Easter.

{Dyeing Easter Eggs}

We had our friends over and dyed Easter eggs on Friday.



The kids did great and only one slight mishap - that chair cushion just gets to be slightly more colorful than the rest.

We had a lot of pink eggs - Evette's favorite color!

Look at that concentration!
  
And dress up and playing outside while mommys and daddys got to talk and visit inside.


{Caitlan's Visit - Part IV - Beach Day}

On Saturday we went with Caitlan to visit the tide pools! So neat!

So fun to see all sorts of little creatures hanging out in those pools.

  
Miriam loved it! "Dat! Dat! Dat!" Translation - "Oh man! look at 'that'!!!"

Evette was a bit more articulate, and also in complete awe.



And of course, we stopped by a beach to play afterwards...because, ya know... California.


More beach yoga.



We saw some guy doing sand art - it was beautiful!



Sand for days, smiles forever.

{Caitlan's Visit - Part III - City Exploration}

We took Caitlan to the Palace of Fine Arts Theatre. It was sunny, but windy and super cold. We still had a good time, though.



Caitlan and Evette had a good time playing hide and seek among the pillars.

We also went to the wave organ. Such a cool thing! 

Pipes in the water so when the waves splash through them you can heard sounds on the other end.

The girls had a great time exploring all over.



After the wave organ we stopped by the beach to play for a little bit.




Miriam did this pose over and over again. She thought she was so funny! Silly yoga baby.


Before Alcatraz, we all went to the gorgeous Dolores Park.

We all had a good time running around!




I can't believe how big this girl is getting.
