Hoppy Easter!

Easter 2012.

Basket!

We dyed eggs in the morning.

Then we had a little Easter egg hunt.

Blurry, yes. But cute.

Aw!

We played with chalk.

It was even warm enough to play in water...for about 5 minutes.

Poor Mi-mi.

Lexigirl didn't get out of going through the water either...

This holiday was a different one. This year, we celebrated Easter without Grandpa. Last year we did too, but it was so raw. This year, well, it kindof felt the same... raw. I miss him so much. I cried randomly. I hid so people didn't see me. He was such a special part of my life. I'm not usually this sappy, but Easter fell the day before the 1 year anniversary of him passing so I was extra sensitive.

I remembered how on Easter I used to go to my grandparents house... in my little Easter dress made by my grandma. I would look all cute and even have a little white bonnet-like hat.

I was happy to be spending time with my family. I didn't get to see my brother or sister, but I did get to spend time with my mama and G's family. And I loved getting to watch my little man hunt for eggs and think about all the memories we're making. I like the thought that someday (hopefully a long time from now), he'll be looking back on these memories.
