Easter Part 1: Colson's First Easter

We have had such a fun Easter weekend. We loved having Hannah come up and stay with us during her spring break. We all had such a fun time playing with each other and Hannah is always so great to help with Colson. She came up Thursday night and stayed until Sunday. Friday we played games together, had a movie day with Stacey's boys when they got out of school and watched Frozen, and had fun playing with Ben when he got home. Saturday we went to the small zoo just around the corner from our house. It was Colson's first time there. The weather was beautiful and we had a good time. We also dyed Easter eggs together. We each did one for Colson so he could have some eggs too. Then we went to listen to Ben and Morgan sing for a program at another church. They did a good job. Sunday we got up early. The Easter bunny brought Colson a cute new Sunday outfit and some bubbles. We all got some candy. We enjoyed going to church and then came home to get dinner ready. My family was coming up for dinner along with my cousin and his wife. We had such a fun time. It was so great to see everyone. Colson absolutely loves being the center of attention and thinks it is so great when people are around. We had a great day together. It was a good ending to a fun-filled weekend.

Colson decided he didn't want to stay in the stroller.

Tortoise and baby

These swans sat and honked at each other for a while. It was fun to watch.

Ben's are on top. He went for bright vibrant colors. We each did one for Colson on the bottom.

Mine are on top here. I like doing one egg a few different shades of a color. Hannah's are on the bottom. She liked trying different textures.

This is the closest I could get to a smile while he was wearing it.
