Easter Weekend '13

We had a great Easter weekend. I took the weekend off from work so we could go to church and enjoy our Sunday afternoon together. We knew Meredith would enjoy Easter a little more this year. We didn't even bother doing Easter eggs last year because she was only 11 months old. We dyed the eggs late Saturday night, Meredith was tired and wasn't really into it. However, she loved finding them! She loved the first hunt so much we had to hide them again and then bribe her with bubbles because she wanted to do it a 3rd time.

I loved her Easter dress this year, I found it at Once Upon a Child for $8.00. It looks like it has never been worn. It is all white, with little yellow flowers on it. I love her in yellow, both of her Easter's dresses from this year and last were yellow. Her sweater was a $1 at a garage sale I found last fall. The shoes are new from Payless Shoes, she is going to be the flower girl in my sister's wedding in June. Since she is wearing them for two occasions, I didn't mind buying them new. I usually don't buy anything new for her unless its on sale. She goes through clothes so fast that I don't see the point in spending the full price for something. I love to hit up garage sales in the summer. I save everything that she has outgrown, either we will reuse it someday or my sister will when she has a daughter.

I hope you all had a wonderful Easter, we all had a great day and are looking very forward to spring getting here and staying here :)

Excuse our messy yard, we haven't had a chance to get out and clean it up from all the winter mess. We had 9 inches of snow covering it all just 2 weeks ago :(
