Happy Easter!

Emily had a great Easter this year. We were very busy all weekend and had something to do every day. On Saturday morning, she hunted eggs in Palmetto and had a great time playing on the playground at the park. On Saturday afternoon, we went to lunch with the Whites at Long Horn. Emily entertained everyone in the restaurant by offering them candy from her Easter basket. Aunt Betty also kept us entertained by posing in her St. Patrick's Day crown. Then on Sunday we attended church with my family and had lunch at Nanny's house afterward. Emily was able to stay in church for the entire service - no small feat for a two-year-old who ate chocolate bunnies for breakfast! She also got invited to hunt eggs with my parents' neighbors, the Winkles, in the evening. She and Abby made quite a haul. We actually had to hide the candy away because she had eaten so much of it! Speaking of eating, T.C. had an unfortunate run-in with some plastic Easter grass which he almost immediately regretted. Emily ran upstairs to find Donald and told him that I was downstairs cleaning up a "big stinking mess that T.C. made." All in all, we had a great weekend filled with fun and friends, chocolate and Easter grass. Hope you enjoy these pictures of our Easter weekend!

Happy Birthday!

Donald celebrated his 33rd birthday this Friday! We went out last Saturday to Andre's in Newnan, one of our favorite restaurants, with our friends Rhonda and Adrian; however, I wanted to try to surprise him because he is always so good at planning surprises for me. I think I managed to pull it off! I arranged for our babysitter to come over at 6:00 (she lives next door - it's a quick walk!) and drove him down to the square in Newnan to La Fiesta where we met a group of our best friends for dinner. We had a great time hanging out with friends for a couple of hours and I enjoyed knowing that I put something together without him guessing it first. Emily has been very excited about his birthday and reminds us often that her birthday is coming in "about two minutes." Really, it seems that way. She'll be three in August! Hope you are all having a wonderful Easter weekend! Enjoy the picture of Senor Donaldo!
