Easter / Easter Weekend

We had a great Easter weekend. Grandma Dahlgren came to make sure Eliana was properly outfitted in her Easter dress and to keep Elle Belle and Mom company while Dad was in NYC for work. We had a glorious sunny day on Saturday. Made it to Good Friday service with Elle Belle in pj's and had a great Easter service Sunday morning followed by a delicious brunch at Boat St Cafe.

Waiting for our reservation at Boat Street Cafe, we ducked into the Sculpture Park (indoor part) to release some energy

















Ta-da!

Our little pirate (Nate always turns her sun hat so she can see; I think we should leave it be...what decisions as parents!)



Enjoying a nice picnic at the Sculpture Park (looking west to the Olympics)



Elle Belle took part in the annual Magnolia Community Center egg hunt, along with her pal, Katherine Newman. The age group was 0-3 so you can imagine what happened. Eliana found 3 or 4 eggs and loves to put things in and out lately, she dropped a few of her eggs into another little boy's basket.







Katherine helping and sharing with Eliana; so sweet!
