Cold Easter Weekend!

Wow - the weather got so cold last week! I wasn't ready for it at all. We actually got snow on Friday! It was very pretty - I guess it fell for about half an hour. Of course, none of it stuck (thank goodness!) but it was fun to have snow in April, nonetheless!

On Saturday, Mimi and PawPaw came over to bring Addie's Easter basket to her - she got lots of neat clothes, including a bathing suit! SO CUTE! We will be going to the beach with Mimi and PawPaw in June. We can't wait! It'll be Addie's first trip to the beach.

We had a great Easter Sunday! We went to the 7:30 service at church. They didn't have nursery at this service, but Addie and Holland were so good! They started getting a little antsy towards the end of the service, but nothing a few Cheerios and a bottle wouldn't take care of :) They looked very cute for their first Easter. What a wonderful day - it has always been my favorite holiday - for its significance, mainly, of course, but also because it is always such a happy and lively time of year!

After that, we went to Gramma and Grampa's house to see what the Easter Bunny left and to have an Easter egg hunt! We had to get all bundled up, but we still had a blast! (I will have to post pictures of this later because we forgot our camera! Gramma took plenty though). Addie did so great! She got very excited to pick up the eggs - especially the ones that made lots of noise (the Easter Bunny always leaves coins in some of the eggs at Mike and Cindy's house).

We then went to Gran and Pop's house for Easter lunch. It was so great to see everyone, although Addie was sneezing and coughing like crazy! She wasn't feeling her best, but still had a good time with all of her cousins. (We know now that Addie just had a little cold - she got it from me :( - that started making her wheeze. The doctor thinks that she has inherited John Michael's asthma, as this is the third time that a minor cold or allergies has caused her to wheeze. Luckily, she is responding VERY well and very quickly to breathing treatments - we are hopeful that if she does in fact have asthma, that hers will be very mild like her daddy's).

Here are a few pictures! More to come...

Bathing beauty!
