Easter

Last weekend we enjoyed a trip down to MA to spend Easter morning with my sister Laura,her family and Nonni. We enjoyed a relaxing Saturday night with Laura making an wonderful dinner and waiting for the Easter Bunny to arrive!

It's not Easter without the bunny cake!!

Woke up to find the Easter Bunny had come!
As soon as Jack discovered candy in his basket he hid behind Pete in hopes we wouldn't see him so he could eat it, LOL! Well, it's Easter he got chocolate at 7:30am!
We did a quick egg hunt inside then a bit later when outside to find more!
They had fun!
with Nonni.....
The best pic I could get of the two of them together!
dying Easter eggs!
Lola & me :)
A family pic before we head back to Maine.
After we left Laura's we headed back home and over to Grammy & Grampy's for another egg hunt!
We ended the day with the annual Easter meal at Ken's!
We all really enjoyed Easter this year!

3. On Monday night with the spring weather finally here, Pete with "help" from the boys put together Jack's mini cooper he got from Nonni & Poppi for Christmas.
