Hoppy Easter!

We celebrated Peyton's 1st Easter this year because Easter fell before he was born last year. First, he got to go on an Easter egg hunt at UNC with his pal Amelia. Amelia brought her own Easter basket, but we forgot ours. Luckily enough Amelia was willing to share her basket, so Peyton went around and picked up the little Easter eggs and trinkets and filled up her basket.





There was even a Pinata that Peyton got to smash.











He got right up in there with the kids when the candy came smashing down and scored me a snickers!




For the actual Easter weekend, we headed to the mountains to meet up with Patrick's parents. We had a nice time walking around the shops in the town of Black Mountain and took a nice hike while we were there.






Patrick's cousin Laura lives in Knoxville so she and her family came and spent the night with us for Easter.







We dyed Easter eggs (ok, well truth be told, Peyton just smashed the egg and tried to eat it. I dyed his egg for him.) The Easter bunny brought baskets for the kids and hid eggs all over the cabin for them to find Easter morning. Chloe and Eric even helped Peyton to find a few eggs.

Sounds like you all had a great Easter. All of these firsts are so memorable and you will be able to look back and enjoy them so much. Give Peyton a kiss and hug for us.

Love, Aunt Debbie
