Easter 2010

This was Claire's first Easter where she was ready to participate in Easter egg hunts. Our church had a cookout and egg hunt the Sunday before Easter, and while the preschool area of the egg hunt was a mad dash, she still had a lot of fun. It took her a little while to figure things out, and in that time she managed to get two eggs and a few rocks, which she found just as enticing.

Later that week, her school held another egg hunt. I wasn't able to make it, but Robert got to go. This time she knew what to do and got a basketful of eggs!

I think her favorite part of the day, though, was after school when Daddy picked her up in the wagon.

For Easter weekend, we spent Friday and Saturday in Austin as we were getting family portraits done there on Saturday morning. We had dinner at Z Tejas and followed it up with some Amy's Ice Cream. Claire was in heaven!

I didn't get any pictures on Easter Sunday, but Claire wore the same dress then as she did for our family photos. We don't have the full gallery yet, but our photographer posted a sneak peek here. This is one of my favorites - our baby has turned into such a beautiful little girl!

I thought it was so cute that Claire put rocks in her basket with her eggs--also like the way she points to her mouth when she wants you to put something good into it.
The last picture is just beautiful--she is a little doll.
