Easter Egg Hunt Part Two

I didn't like the thought of spending Easter all by ourselves so lucky for us our friends the Daines agreed to come spend it with us!  They have two of the cutest little kids - Owen and Addy!  Meg and Greg are pretty great themselves too.

I am especially grateful to Greg - he is a very handy guy to have around.  He fixed my squeaky dining room table in about 5 minutes!  Yeah Greg!

Jim thought it would be fun to have a little egg hunt for Owen and Addy when they arrived so we set up our traditional string hunt for them!.

Did I mention how cute they are!?!?

I am sure their parents were thrilled with more candy but we had fun!  I told them that's what happens when you come to Grandma's house - they get to eat as much candy as they want!  Although Greg did a pretty good job on that bowl of jelly beans himself!!

Did I mention how cute they are??

and here is our cutie!

Easter Egg Hunt Part One

You may have noticed quite a few blog posts from me today - I am using blogger as an avoidance behavior today! 

Good thing we had a lot going on this last week so I have something to blog about or I might have to clean the house or something!!!

I mentioned my families attachment to tradition...  well for the last 25 years the Easter Bunny has left a web of string at our house for the kids to follow to their Easter basket treats.  He also did this at my house when I was growing up thus the tradition continues.

Ready to start the hunt!

The Easter Bunny (aka Jim) gets pretty creative at our house as to where he hides/hangs the candy!  She needed a little help getting this one down!

I thought Mr. Easter Bunny was quite clever with this one - hiding Tessa's new Easter bonnet in the garage with all of Jim's baseball hats!

Some candy and a new hat and scarf!

Tessa plus John plus Michael

Tessa is in love - in love with two different men - John and Michael!
Tessa and Hannah went to the John Mayer concert on Tuesday night.  They  had an amazing time and Tessa is in love!

They had great seats - on the main floor just 16 rows back!

It made for a late school night and she paid the price the next night when she was up until 2:30 a.m. finishing  paper!

Friday night I got to enjoy my Christmas present from Tessa - tickets to the Michael Buble concert.

We had a fun mother/daughter date with Tessa's friend Kylie and her mother.

Before the concert we went to Henry's 12th Street Tavern where we shared a yummy burger.

Kylie and her mom.

Our seats weren't quite as good for this concert but fortunately there are binoculars built into the seats!

Here's Michael!

I think we're both in love!
