We had a wonderful Easter weekend with our families in Perrysburg! Lucy enjoyed a few egg hunts, chowing down her first chocolate bar, and being a VERY active girl at 2 church services.

Saturday night we went out to dinner with the Ehrmin's and the to Zoar's Easter Vigil service.

My heart melted watching Lucy walk with her Daddy to dinner.

Sunday we went to Mass with the Burrow's and Mimi and Papa and then had a nice Easter Brunch.

A special thanks to Mimi and Papa for helping to entertain 3 very, very busy girls at St. Rose. (I think each adult took a turn holding or entertaining each girl, Anneliese, Ellie or Lucy at a different point during the service! :)) After Mass ended the families around us all commented to Mimi how beautiful, and busy her grandchildren are...haha!

As soon as we were back to the house Ellie and Lucy started searching for eggs....AKA CHOCOLATE!

Ellie had 5-6 pieces in just seconds :)

Lucy wasn't far behind.....she enjoyed her first chocolate bar with her Daddy!

"Can I have this?"

Ellie would put all the eggs in the basket and Lucy would dump them all out...

over and over and over again!

Lucy also helped find the eggs...

Some eggs had chapstick in them. Lucy thought it was a hair brush of some sort. So she proceeded to walk around the living room "combing her hair!"

Lucy and I also stopped by the Brzozka's over the weekend to see Melanie who was home from LA! She is expecting her first baby this fall and we had to make a minute to see her. (And her adorable niece, Stella!)

"Oh Melanie, I love you already!"

Stella and Lucy kept their distance...

...because all Lucy wanted to do was run around the backyard with the "dogs!

Happy Easter everyone! We are lucky to have such a wonderful family and friends!
