Easter Weekend

We had a wonderful Easter weekend. It started Thursday evening with a visit to the Lake Jackson Easter Egg Hunt. I was a little nervous as I drove in with the massive amount of cars and people. Thankfully, they had different areas for each age range. There was an area for non-walkers so Ashton fit right in. She enjoyed people watching as she sat on the grass with her bunny ears on. Her picture even ended up in the newspaper the next day.

People watching like normal.

The "Easter Bunny" was just the Chick-Fil-A cow dressed up. I was disappointed.

They got our town wrong but I was still so excited to have her picture in the newspaper! We went to the gas station and bought one as soon as we found out.

This is Ashton's Easter dress from Grandma Wilcox. Ashton loved trying to eat the flowers on it.

 Friday morning, we left for Austin to visit family. We had a wonderful weekend there, full of good food and lots of smiles and laughter. Ashton enjoyed seeing her cousins again. I see a great friendship forming between Ashton and her cousin, Ollie who is 9 months older. It's fun to see Ashton with other babies. In our ward, she is the only baby right now. At the ward we visited, there are tons of babies so it was neat to see Ashton interact with them and try to be possessive about her toys.

 The way back from Austin was long. Traffic was bad so the four hour drive became a five hour drive. Ashton did pretty well, which surprised me. All in all, I would say Ashton's first Easter was quite a success.
