Happy Easter

The morning started off like most others with the exception of breakfast.  Tony's parents do a brunch for Easter and we figured that if we fed them at their normal breakfast time (around 8:30am), they wouldn't want to eat again around 10:00am.  Tony left to go to his parents to make the food and I was on my own for a couple hours.  I had been prepping the girls that they were going to be wearing their 'pretty dresses' when we go to Grandma's house for a day or two.  Every time I told them, I heard - "No dress" along with whining and crying. 
I started with little Tony- he's so easy going.  He gave me no issue with putting him in his little suit.  Amelia - wanted nothing to do with her dress.  I explained one more time that it was Grandma's choice and she at least let me put it on her, but she continued to cry and scream.  Olivia came right upstairs when I called her and acted like the dress was her long lost friend and put it on without a problem.  She opened up her shoe box and said "WOW"!  It was so funny - to me because I remember her putting up such a fuss to even try on those shoes!
I got the kids over to the house and as hungry as I thought they should be, none of them ate very much.  After the food, they went through their Easter baskets.  They each got a book and a puzzle along with bunches of chocolates and jelly beans.  Finally it was time for the Egg Hunt.  We had practiced several times over the past few days and we were pumped and ready to go.  Everyone got a bag to collect their eggs in and off they went!

After the hunt we took a little swing together.
