A late happy Easter to everyone! I hope you had a fun weekend with friends and family. We did, but it went by sssoooo fast, I’m sad it’s over! Thursday night Bobby and I dyed Easter eggs, then forgot to put them in the refrigerator, whoops!
Also we kind of made a mess, but love having a place to put the completed eggs!
Bella was feeling left out and wanted to show off our cute new rug.
Friday afternoon we loaded up the family and drove to my parents house. We dropped off the girls and headed downtown for the night. We were running the Crescent City Classic 10k in the morning but had the expo and a pasta dinner to get to first.
At the pasta dinner I got to catch up with some friends/other bloggers, we had a blast! I was sure to carb load and eat plenty of desserts.
After dinner we checked into our hotel, Aloft New Orleans, and went to bed. Poor Bobby had a cold and wasn’t feeling very good.
The next morning was the race (recap coming soon)
Then we drove back to my parents house for Easter.I was sure to get a celebratory wedding cake snowball.
My dad’s 60th birthday is in a couple of weeks, so we went ahead and celebrated since we were in town. We had a delicious doberge cake (google it) and ice cream.
Sunday morning we went to church, and of course Emma Kate got an Easter basket.
The weather was gorgeous, sunny and 70, so we all hung out outside while my dad grilled. My aunt and uncles came over and joined us for lunch.
Lunch was delicious as usual, but all too soon it was time to pack up and make the drive back to Mississippi. Out of nowhere a huge storm popped up and it rained the entire drive back home. Sad times.
We had so much fun (except for Bobby being sick) celebrating Easter and the true reason we celebrate the holiday.

I felt so bad for the kids yesterday. We had cool weather but it was raining during the morning. I hope some places switched the Easter egg hunts to Saturday because that was perfect weather.
