Easter Gift and Eggs

Practicing the Easter Egg Hunt

Loving the box that Nana Whall sent!!!

Perhaps I got some egg dye on my face...and hands...and shirt...and counter top

Trying on the Easter Hat Nana Whall sent

Painting Eggs with Daddy (who just got back from skiing all day in the sun!)

Nana Whall sent Marie a wonderful Easter outfit and some U of M gear for Easter. I am sorry to report, Marie appreciated the huge box full of styrofoam peanuts ALOT more than the gorgeous outfits. She played in the box most of the morning and afternoon. Then, Jim and Marie made Easter Eggs. Marie's hands are now dyed pink. Yep. Pink. We will take her to church tomorrow in her adorable outfit with pink hands. She also had flecks of pink all over her face but we got most of those. It was a very very fun day but it isn't good when your only child goes to bed with parts of her body dyed pink.

On a side note: Jim and I went out tonight. YEP!!!! We had a sitter and went out!!! We went out with our friends-that-we-had-before-we-were-parents. We went to a brew pub and had pizza and Momma wore snazzy clothes. It was awesome! We actually felt like a couple again!!! AND...next week we get to see our friends in Georgia!!! We were just talking about how weird it is that we are seeing our friends' family for the first time, even though we feel we know them so well...And there might be sunshine! We can't wait!
