Easter Weekend

On Saturday morning we let Jilly open her Easter presents from my parents.  She got an outfit for her bitty baby, which she loves, and this dress, which was a definite winner.  She immediately put it on and started dancing around the room telling us she was "Pincess Rella."  When Bryan suggested that she looked more like Princess Strawberry he was given a dirty look and an emphatic "No, Pincess Rella."  

We drove out to Bryan's parents' in the afternoon and our first stop was their ward Easter Egg hunt.  Up until this point all of our egg hunts had involved empty eggs so when Jilly realized there was candy in these eggs she was pretty thrilled.  So thrilled that she lost the gathering spirit and chose to just open the eggs and eat the contents.  

After the egg hunt we had a picnic.  It got kind of cold and breezy, but it didn't stop us from having fun.  Jilly loved getting to sit up in a high tree with her Uncle Jeff even if it made her mother nervous.

After church on Easter we had another egg hunt, a delicious dinner, and lots of fun playing in the backyard.  I got Jilly's dress at Target and it was a huge win for its spinning effect.

I love that this girl loves dresses so much. Jackson was the same way with his Easter egg hunt - get one, eat the contents, move on to the next. It was a good thing he didn't have any competition for the eggs or they would have been gone!

Jilly is so precious. I love the spinning and I loved visualizing her giving Bryan a dirty look for insulting her. :)
