Easter is always a special holiday for our family and this year was no different. We were blessed with a bright, clear sunny sky and unseasonably warm weather. Our day was full of events, beginning with church, lunch with good friends, visiting neighbors, and chatting with family far away.
Since Ruby was just a tiny thing last year at this time, it was fun to see her explore and learn about some Easter traditions, like discovering an Easter basket.
We had lunch with dear friends and they even provided Ruby the chance to hunt for Easter eggs. It took her awhile to get the concept down. She immediately picked up two eggs but didn't want to let go of those in order to get more. We had a bag for her to put her eggs in but she didn't really understand until Noa demonstrated. Then she was all over it!
Ruby found this green, frog-shaped egg and decided that it was the best one. After that, she had to hang on to that egg. Any other egg seemed dispensable, but that egg was the special one and she didn't want to let go.
And finally, here's our little family on Easter day 2013:
Okay, truth be told, we had some outtakes, including the moment right after Ruby slapped me (not intentionally) and threw a mean tantrum - gotta love our life right now! Ha!
