Easter 2011

Easter was a whirlwind.  We began the day with the obligatory Easter Bunny spoils, followed by an Easter Egg Hunt at Oglethorpe, then church, then off to Decatur for Easter lunch, then another Easter Egg Hunt at Gran & Granddaddy’s, and then a visit with Pitts.  There were many smiles, tons of candy, wonderful food, and more than a few yawns.  We took a ton of pictures so without further ado, here they are.

Eager anticipation:

Say what you will, but that girl can clutch an egg:

The little ones (3 and under) got to go first.  Liam was a fan of this system.

Mo demonstrates that sticking out the tongue while concentrating is genetic:

It was a wonderful (albeit exhausting) day.
