March 23

March 23 was a big day at our house. Not only was it Emily's first Easter, it was also her grandmother's birthday. K, Brad's mom, had a really big birthday. They were gone to Nashville for the Lads to Leaders conference, so we had to do our celebrating early in the week. K wasn't very excited about this BIG BIRTHDAY, so she wouldn't let us plan a party. Brad's brother and sister got a cookie cake (yum!), and we all went out to eat together.

Emily got her Easter basket from Big Daddy and K
this night.

Emily enjoyed her first Easter, and we thought she looked absolutely precious in her little dress. She only made it in her dress until about 11:00 when she had a giant diaper blowout. Her next outfit lasted through the big lunch Brad cooked for everyone at our house. After a tee-tee leak, we changed into outfit #3 for her first egg hunt. I have a feeling she's going to be "all girl" with all these outfit changes! :)

Emily was wrapped in the blanket my grandmother
made for her, and she wore booties that my
great-grandmother made years ago.

Brad's homemade chips are SO GOOD!

His ka-bobs were a big hit!

Look at the cute little egg I found! :)

Tyler, Brad, and Betsy had their own "challenge egg
hunt" after Emily hunted her eggs. Doesn't Tyler look
sweet with his little Easter basket? :)

Even Beau got in on the fun. He rode around
in Em's basket for a long time. :)
