Bug's Life: Easter Weekend

We kicked off our Easter weekend at the polo field with Vickie. Kylee went on a egg hunt, rode a pony for the first time, watched a magic show, and visited the petting zoo. I was surprised by how much she enjoyed the magic show. She mimicked all the magician's hand movements and had a great time repeating the magic words and clapping with the rest of the audience. The petting zoo was her favorite part of the morning. No surprise there. The chickens seemed to be her favorite. She also loved the duck and baby goat. She gave them both a kiss and cried when it was time go.

After that we went to Tamara's baby shower; then came home for dinner and a wardrobe change (she got BBQ all over her shirt at the shower) before heading off to another egg hunt with daddy and his boss's church. It was an after dark flashlight egg hunt. Kylee was excited about being outside after dark and getting to use a flashlight but was more excited about being near a playground with daddy than anything else. She collected 17 Easter eggs (out of the 100 that we brought) and a baseball and then spent the majority of the time going down the slide with daddy. She sung the clean up song as she picked up the eggs on her way up to the slide.

Kylee loved her "tutu dress" from Charli. She proudly showed everyone we came across and insisted on wearing it to bed with her pj pants.

First thing Easter morning, Kylee went looking for her Easter basket. Per her request, the Easter bunny brought her meatsticks and Scooby Doo. He also brought Leapfrog frig phonics magnets, a couple 'Spot' books, and art supplies.

The weather was gorgeous, and Kylee actually liked wearing her Easter dress (another "tutu dress). She played outside in the front yard in her dress for a little while. Then we headed to grandma's house.

Kylee got to open an Easter present from grandma (a book, a bunny, bubbles, and a necklace & bracelet set). Then Terry, Laci, and Ayrianna joined us for lunch. After lunch Kylee; her cousin, Ayrianna; and 2 of Ayrianna's cousins had an Easter hunt in grandma's front yard. Kylee had a blast playing outside with the other kids.
