Easter-Birthday Weekend

We had a really exciting weekend. It was Easter AND Bob's 40th birthday.

On Friday afternoon, we took advantage of Maddy's half-day at school and colored our Easter eggs. This year we made tie-dye eggs. The process was a little elaborate….


…but the results were very pretty.


On Saturday, Bob was in Taunton from going to his Fantasy Baseball draft the night before so Audrey got to tag along on Maddy's swim lesson. Turns out, Audrey is just the right size to store in the locker during the lesson.



After swim lessons we did some celebrating with Bob for his 40th birthday. I think he liked the mini drone we got for him, though we had to immediately get online and order some replacement propellers!



Then we met the Finley's at LaSiesta where "Pedro" got to wear the birthday sombrero.



After Bob's birthday dinner we went home to watch a basketball game that shall never be mentioned again. So onto happier things....like Easter!

The Easter Bunny must have come while we were crying ourselves to sleep after the UK-Wisconsin game.



After all the Easter eggs were hunted, the kids put on their Easter dresses....



...even Elmo got gussied up for the holiday.



Grammy and Grandpa came up for brunch to celebrate with us.





And Kenny and Tricia brought even more presents! Including a lei that came all the way from Hawaii



And after Maddy ate her body weight in ham....



Bob got to enjoy the birthday treat he's been requesting for the last 12 years, an ice cream cake. (It took him 12 years because I have a philosophical problem with concept of an ice cream cake but I figured for his 40th, he was entitled.)



Happy Birthday Bob and Happy Easter!
