Hippity Hop

That's right, the Easter Bunny made a stop at our house this year. It's been a while! Jackson was very excited to find out what was in his Easter basket. A new glitter ball, garbage truck (he looks forward to the garbage truck's visit each Wednesday morning), a couple of books about the potty, and some special treats. Jackson thought everything was great, and he was interested in taking everything out of the basket, unlike his stocking at Christmas.

After our Easter basket fun, we headed outside for the Easter egg hunt. At first, Jackson wasn't too sure what was going on. OK, Mom, I found an egg, so what? But after a couple of demonstrations about how we find the eggs and put them into the basket, he was an old pro. He cleared the yard in minutes flat! And then he wanted to check out his loot. His favorite treat today, by far, were the yogurt covered rasins.

It ended up being an absolutely BEAUTIFUL day and Jackson played out in the backyard for the rest of the morning. Today we got a glimpse of summer and it's got me ready for more! Jackson loves to be outside, and I can't wait until we can spend every afternoon out there!

We ended our day with a delicious dinner with family, Uncle Mike, his girlfriend Kelly, and G-ma. Gruyere, asparagus tart, ham and mini tomato pies. YUM!
