Angelica's Second Easter

What a great Easter it was! We spent the day before coloring eggs (complete with spilling blue egg dye on our light brown carpet...whoops!), then the next day Angelica woke up, had a "practice" Easter egg hunt at home, opened her Easter basket, and then we headed over to the Lindlaus (my sister's husband's parents...aka my brother-in-law's parents) for some more Easter festivities.

I could recap the whole thing, but pictures speak louder than words. Just for comparison, here are two photos from LAST year:



She was such a baby back then!

Here are a few from this year.

Afterward, I did some group pictures for everyone. Here's one that my daughter (kind of) photobombed with a funny face. She's with Anna, Tyler (Willy & Anna's cousin), and Willy:

She did eventually smile though:

Then, my brother in law's mom took a family photo of us! It was nice to get a shot of all of us together for a change, since I'm usually the one behind the camera:

Angelica got tossed in the air, then had a tantrum when Daddy stopped:

And, my favorite picture of Angelica from the day (and maybe one of my favorites ever):

And that's it for my photo-heavy post. But what a great day!
