Wordless Wednesday: Easter Portraits

Easter 2012 in Pictures

Other than when I broke my toe, we had a BLAST this weekend! Saturday we went to an Easter festival, then to see the lacrosse team that Scott's dad coaches play, and then paid the Easter Bunny a visit. Sunday morning (Easter) I broke my toe, Angelica opened her Easter basket, we did an Easter Egg hunt at home, then another one at church, and then I went to the ER. I'll let these photos tell the story.

Easter Festival -- hunting for eggs

Watching the lacrosse game (Bentley College vs University of New Haven)

She found flowers and put them in her hair 

She found a football field to run on

The saddest Easter Bunny ever.

Making Easter Eggs

Our eggs!

Opening her Easter basket

Right before this, she said, "The Easter Bunny must love me!"

Hunting for Easter Eggs at home

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.

Dying Easter eggs with Daddy:




The blue hand of "doom":


The two eggs she finished (I did the other 9):


One casualty...(notice that 2+9 above does not equal 12!)

Cousin Willy shows her a pinecone:


I just like this one because it shows off her pretty dress:


Heading out on the REAL Easter egg hunt!


Stealing some of Anna's eggs (we stopped her, don't worry!)


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 ate a delicious cookie:


I also took a couple of Anna and Willy:




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!
