Happy Easter

Happy Easter everyone. We had a great week of preparations, gifts, family time, and the egg hunt of course. 

First up was the egg decorating. Thank goodness for the sticker sets that make decorating with a young one a little easier. N was pretty excited to watch the eggs turn different colours. I think she would have decorated 20 if given the opportunity.  

 Next up were the cookies. I bought this great cutting and decorating set that was fun for both of us to use. What I didn't realize was the size of the cookie cutters - as they were hidden in the box when I was purchasing them. Wow! Those easter egg cookies are bigger than Bruce's hand.

N received lots of great gifts from her grandparents. Books and gummies galore (oh, and chocolate for mum and dad). We are very fortunate to have such a wonderful family.

On Good Friday we headed out to the mountains for an overnight stay at the Delta in Kananaskis. We were spoiled by fabulous blue sky and sunshine on both days.  Our trip involved a lot of walking, swimming, and climbing on the rocks pictured below.

Gorgeous scenery of course.

Remember this?

N wanted to explore everywhere, especially the steeper areas.

The hotel had many fabulous activities for kids. A highlight was the GPS easter egg hunt on Saturday morning. N was okay-ish with the GPS and FAR more excited about finding the baskets hidden in various outdoor locations. During the hike we were noting that this was probably something the Stroms did for their family... ;)

A definite highlight for N was when the Easter bunny visited and left plastic eggs filled with gummies (as N does NOT like the taste of chocolate) all over the house. That is the most excited I have seen her in a while.

So excited that she had to put some of the gummies  on her waffles. I think she is a big fan of the Easter bunny!
