Party of Five: Easter Weekend

Easter weekend was a blast for our family! It was Grayson's first road trip and one that took us to MeMe and Peepaw's for a long weekend visit. We were beyond ready to get out of Pennsylvania as we had not traveled as a family since Christmas. The weather in Roanoke was gorgeous with temperatures in the 80's all weekend. Sunny skies and warm weather-GLORIOUS!

MeMe and Peep were thrilled to have their three grandchildren to love on and spoil. MeMe had a smile on her face all weekend! I loved spending time with my sister and niece. It makes holidays even more fun with the little ones!

I captured lots of moments from the weekend but boy is it hard to get three youngins to look at the camera. It made for some funny and memorable shots though.

MeMe didn't waste any time bringing out the gifts. Carrington couldn't get enough of opening eggs and seeing what was inside. After she opened the original eggs she had MeMe put more money and goodies in the eggs so she could open them again.

The sunglasses stayed on all weekend!

Lots of cousin lovin'

Small, medium, large

MeMe would give her grandchildren three baths a day if you let her

Look at that pitiful face

Center in the Square had an Easter egg hunt and meet-the-bunny event on Saturday morning. We missed the hunt...but not the BUNNY!

Love this one!!

Carrington was up early on Easter so MeME gave her a bath (shocker) and got her dressed before going downstairs to see what the bunny left. The Easter bunny was very generous to all three kids. Once again, Carrington thoroughly enjoyed opening each egg to see what was inside. Madison and Grayson were not left out on their first Easter. Mr. Bunny knew exactly what to bring each child.

Grayson's

Each one enjoyed going through their baskets. The youngest getting a little help to see what they received.

The thrill of opening eggs!

Getting in some Mickey while the rest of us got ready for church. Notice the sunglasses!

Family photo time before church. Everyone looked beautiful in their Sunday best. Peep was already at church singing in the choir so unfortunately we didn't get any with him.

After Church it was off to Granny and Grandaddy's so Grayson could meet his great grandparents and extended family, eat some of Granny's cookin' and have an Easter egg hunt. My uncle is famous for putting a large bill in an egg, pretending to hide it and then sending the kids off to look for it. To date, the egg has not been found. Go figure!

If I can't open it, I'll eat it...

The next two pictures are my favorite from the entire weekend. I adore my grandparents and to see them with our children just warms my heart. Not to mention, the faces being made by the little ones are priceless!
