So I am 28 years old and this is the first Easter EVER that I have not been with my family. My mom always does a big Easter brunch at our house and the extended family comes over and the whole day is full of TRADITIONS that have been that way for as long as I have been alive. So the anticipation leading up to my first Easter away from every thing familiar was getting to me. So I decided this would be the perfect time to start some traditions of my own. Thanks to my amazing Mom who always made holidays so fun and special I really have a deep desire to do the same for my own family. So this Easter I went crazy...Easter baskets, egg dying and hunting, pictures with the Easter bunny, church breakfast, pretty new dresses the whole nine yards! Here are a few pictures of our weekend. we had a blast and even my husband (who doesn't really understand the whole big holiday tradition thing) ended the day by saying "We live a great life huh?" I smiled back and said "Yeah."
Thanks mom for teaching me the importance of family memories and holidays. I Love you!

Did Peyton line all those eggs up like that??
Super cute! Glad you guys had a great holiday!
Not much of a "hunt for those eggs!" but cute!!! This was my first easter away from home too.... I got together with a bunch of my new friends, all of them don't have family here, so we created our own family. We had a full on feast! Turkey, ham, mashed potatoes, green bean stuff, deviled eggs, salad, tons and tons of stuff! It was awesome! I missed my family, who was grilling Carne Asada in my parents amazing backyard, but it sure wasn't a bad replacement. Cheers to new traditions!!
