Plymouth turns 65

Yesterday was Hannah's nursery school's 65th birthday party. As a special treat, the school brought in a mini petting zoo and pony rides.

Hannah and her friend Tessa with the goat.

The goat started getting at Tessa's shirt and so the girls were intermittently laughing and screaming. It was really funny. They were both backing away from the goat and soon after got out completely.

Week old ducks. Super soft.

And then the pony ride.

Siblings could also go on the pony rides, however, this is as close as Emme got.

And of course it wouldn't be a party without cake!

Happy Birthday Plymouth!

Easter

Easter activities started Friday with egg dying. Hannah showing me her pretty pink egg!

This was Emme's first year of dying the eggs (she still needed a lot of help from Mommy).

All done with our eggs! They turned out great.

The Easter Bunny came!

Emme was so excited to open each egg and see a piece of candy. "Yay!"

After a breakfast of hard boiled eggs and paska (a Slovak bread Hannah and I made the day before), each of us got to have 1 treat out of our basket. Emme chose her chocolate bunny (well part of it) and started eating it from the center.

Hannah chose a caramel egg and proceeded to get all of the gooey caramel out with her fingers before eating the egg. A sticky, gooey mess!

Then it was on to Auntie Cheri's house for an Easter egg hunt followed by a huge meal! The Easter egg hunt was serious business, a treasure hunt for each child around the entire house indoor and out. Each child had different clues and different eggs to find.

Hannah thought it was so much fun!!

Emme and Caroline (who is also 2) got to find their eggs all around the grass!

Emme and Addie!

Hannah stayed busy playing outside all day!! She only came in to eat lunch (a little) and dessert (a lot). Here she is pushing Jackson on the tractor! Wait...shouldn't it be the other way around?

Happy Easter!

Drumlin Farm

After visiting Daddy at work and taking him out to lunch yesterday, the girls and I took a trip to Drumlin Farm.

Hannah found a seat in the rocks and wanted me to take a picture. She loves posing for the camera.

This one is a bit more natural?

Checking out the chickens!

Cheese.

We saw this same cow 2 hours after he was born last year. It was crazy to see how big he has grown in the last year!

Riding the "horses"

Springtime is always fun at the farm because all of the animals are having their babies. We saw a pregnant pig that is due next week, lots of lambs and kids. These guys were less than a week old. They were kept in a separate space just for them and their mama.

As is the case these days, the girls like to take pictures too. Hannah took this next picture of a sheep.

And Emme took a picture of Hannah's legs.

Hannah tried again with Mommy and Emme.

And Emme tried one of Mommy and Hannah. Mommy had to help a little.

And then a self portrait...

Wait...one more posed picture before we leave!

An early egg hunt

This past weekend, we went to our friends annual Easter egg hunt. A little early, but a lot of fun! It was an indoor/outdoor egg hunt with over 300 eggs to find followed by a pizza party! Emme was a bit hesitant to start, but then very excited to check out what was inside some of her eggs! Hannah and Evvie taking a break to show me their eggs...

Jake, Hannah, and Sophie.

All of the kids...so much fun!
