Grandpa read Ally her favorite story.
He also took us with his dog Java to let her go swimming!
Grandpa Frank, Ally and Julie all posed for a photo at the pond.
Mommy, Grandma and Ally anticipate egg dying.
Grandma Barbie colored Easter eggs with Ally!
Note Ally's new cowboy boots - a real find at the secondhand store! She is very much into Toy Story, and now can dress up in "cowboy boots and cowboy hat".
On Easter, Ally found a basket left by the Easter Bunny!
There were even scented bubbles - mint and strawberry!
And a BIG treat - Gummy Bears!
Here Ally is dropping an egg into the collection basket for the egg hunt. She is sucking on a gummy bear - they were hard to chew, so she sucked on them until they were soft.
"Oh, I found a plastic egg full of Cheerios! Time for a break!"
"Oh, I got distracted by Ernie and my doll, how about another egg hunt break?"
We took a lot of egg hunt breaks and needed to help Ally with some egg hunting motivation. Once she found some eggs with goodies, the motivation to continue seemed to drop!
Grandma Barbie gave Ally some new pajamas!
After Easter morning, we went on our way home to visit our friends Jay and Michelle. Ally got to spend some time with their girls, Julia and Karina. Karina first told Ally the story in the books, then Julia read to them both! It was very cute to see them all sitting together.
We had a great Easter with Julie's parents. It was great to watch Ally's anticipation ("go see Grandma Barb and Grandpa Frank, and Java!") and to let Grandma and Grandpa have an excuse to ply Ally with extreme amounts of treats. Good news is that it she did actually sleep - the large amount of exciting activities seemed to counteract all the sugar!
