Happy Easter!

Anne Parks has been in this world for two Easter Sundays, and (poor thing) for the second year in a row, she was up the night before with a fever and an ear infection. So, alas, I have no Easter dress photos to share. We do have a dress, so maybe we'll do some spring pics once the it warms up again.

Anne Parks did get to enjoy her school's Easter party and egg hunt, and because it was Spring Break, I got to go, too!

Can you find the eggs in the picture below?

This is a picture of the Easter eggs just before Anne Parks and her friends were brought in to "hunt" for them. On the day of the event, it was too cold go outside, so the festivities took place in the hall.

Anne Parks knew exactly what her mission was..."don't stop 'til I find all the eggs...

...unless I find a jellybean first."

Each egg had candy in it. Once the kids realized that, the "hunt" turned into a "see-how-much-candy-I-can-shove-into-my-mouth-before-my-friend-gets-it" frenzy!

Once that happened, they were told to "sit on the wall" while Ms. Grace and Ms. Rhonda divided the eggs evenly. I'm proud to say that Anne Parks was one of the few who followed directions.

After the egg hunt, we went to the room to play until nap time.
After nap, it was time for the party!

It was fun for me to see how Anne Parks goes about her day while at school. I was super impressed at how her class sat the table together. She looked so big! I guess it's peer pressure that keeps them in their seats. I know that at home a Capri Sun would be a major disaster, but no one really made a mess. They just sat and ate and drank and only occassionally took food off of their neighbors plate.

Anne Parks enjoyed the party, but the food was a little too messy for her taste. She must have asked for 10 napkins!
It was a fun day!
