Easter at Gigi and Papa's

After naptime today, we headed to Gigi's for another Easter celebration with my whole family. There was, of course, another Easter egg hunt - this time, since it had been so rainy earlier this morning, we did it inside. Meredith and Landon both loved it!


Meredith loves her cousin, Landon! She had so much fun hunting with him and then all night, she would insist he "Follow me, Landon!" And if he didn't listen, she would be in the back room with all the toys just calling to him over and over!


Every year, my grandma makes this bunny cake and I always look forward to it! This year, she decided to let Meredith help decorate the bowtie with the Jelly Beans. She had so much fun and I think this was a record year for Jelly Beans - and when she ran out of room, she decided the bunny himself needed a bit more decoration. The best part for Meredith was that putting on the jelly beans, meant lots of frosting on her fingers - bad news for everyone else, but at least she had fun!


After her masterpiece was complete, she asked for candles - of course, there is cake, there should be candles! Luckily Gigi had some on hand. We asked how many we should add and 3 seemed to be the magic number (Daddy suggested there was one for each day until Jesus was resurrected - I am sure that is what she had in mind!) And we sang "Happy Easter to You" before she blew out the candles.

Gigi had a special treat of confetti eggs that Meredith and Daddy had a blast with - she was really sad when they were all gone!
