Happy Easter!

We’ve had a busy but fun Easter weekend.  It kicked off Friday night with a Pirates game.  They beat the Manchester Monarchs 6-3!

On Saturday, Kaitlyn skipped dance class in the morning and went over to our church instead.  We heard the Easter story, sang songs, and learned about the contents of a traditional Easter basket.   Then Monsignor Henchal blessed the kids’ Easter baskets before the egg hunt.

After the egg hunt, we went down two Two Lights for lunch.  It was the Lobster Shack’s opening day.  It was great being there before all the tourists arrive for the season.  Parking was so much easier!  The lobster rolls were just as good as last year!  We can’t wait to go back…

Next we unfortunately had to take Kevin to work, but we went home and made a surprise Easter dessert for Kevin and Grammy.  I’m pretty impressed with the next picture.  I snapped it one handed while teaching Kaitlyn the fine art of using a Wilton cake decorating tip and piping bag to make “grass”!

Kaitlyn is putting the “Easter Eggs” in the “grass”.  Some of the “eggs” are jelly beans and others are Hershey chocolate eggs.

All done!  Some will be coming in to work with me tomorrow.

Next up was egg dying and decorating!

After we were done decorating, Kaitlyn asked what we were going to do with the eggs.  I told her we were going to eat them.  Her response?  “Ewww. I don’t want to eat the stickers!”

This morning we went to Mass.  Kaitlyn got lots of compliments on her dress.   I can’t believe how grown up she looks here!

The Easter Bunny came while we were at church!

Right now Kaitlyn is watching Cars 2 which the Easter Bunny brought her and looking pretty tired.  She will definitely be crashing soon.  Hope everyone else had a great Easter!  We sure did!
