Redbird's Game
Friday night we went to the Memphis Redbird's game with some friends. Again, the weather was great and we had a really nice time.

Mud Island Mother's Group with Dad
Dad had the afternoon off so I picked him up from school and we headed over to meet the other moms at the River Park. Luckily another mom brought her husband too so Brent wasn't alone. The weather was beautiful and Morgan loved it. We had a nice little picnic and everything.

It's been so nice to have him around a little more. It will all be over soon when he starts at the VA in a week. AHHHHH!

Zoo Pass
Yeah, we bought a zoo pass. We figured we're going to be around another year and Morgan loves it outside so why not. This is a picture of our first trip. You'd think we'd have animals in the back ground at the zoo, but we forgot to take a picture until I was leaving and flowers were closer than the animals.

Easter Egg Hunt
The weather was so nice yesterday, we decided to do a little Easter egg hunt in the front yard. It consisted of setting about 5 eggs in the yard about 3 feet from each other. She would walk (assisted) to the each egg, I would pick it up and hand it to her and she would put it in her mouth. Then I would take it out of her mouth and help her put it in the basket. It was a fun game. As you can tell, she had a pretty good time.

I don't know if you can tell, but I was trying to take a picture of where Morgan got her eyes. I know some of you probably think I'm obsessed with her eyes, but I have not so pretty brown eyes and always wished I had blue eyes. So I'm just living through her.

Easter Traditions
We've taken a lot of pictures in the last couple of days so I'm sure there will be more postings to come but I thought I would start with a couple of Easter traditions. My mom used to always make these bunny cakes for Easter and I always thought they were fun. I remember making them in college and now I made a couple for some friends so I thought I would share them.

Then of course, the dying of the eggs. Sadly, Brent and I have had four Easter's together and this is the first time we've died eggs together. He's kind of an amateur egg dyer and didn't even know the rubber band trick. He tried being creative by using tin foil and sand paper but didn't have too much luck so stuck to more traditional methods. We did have a good time though.

Also in my house growing up, the Easter Bunny came on Saturday. That way, you can find your baskets, play with your toys, and find and hide your eggs time and time again without restriction. Having early church kind of limits these activities so we moved it to Saturday and have a two day Easter celebration. That also leaves Sunday to really talk about and appreciate the real meaning of Easter and the resurrection of our Savior. I like the idea so we implemented it this year.

Morgan's basket was hidden in the middle of the living room floor and she had no problem finding it.She went straight for the book. Thanks Grandma for filling Morgan's basket. Brent found his basket in about 30 seconds and with much help from Brent, I finally found mine. (The Easter Bunny told him where it was hidden because he knows I'm not a very good searcher.)

For those of you who have been following our blog, you'll notice the McClard's BBQ sauce Brent talked about in our last posting. The Easter bunny must have brought it all the way from Hot Springs, or maybe he just found out they sell it at Kroger. We hope you all have a wonderful and meaningful Easter.
