This was the first year there wasn't any snow on the ground during the egg hunt. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/IMG_20190420_100325.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/IMG_20190420_100552.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/IMG_20190420_100726.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/IMG_20190420_100728.jpg) Next up... Emma's first track meet of the year. 💕 ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/00100lPORTRAIT_00100_BURST20190420112057545_COVER.jpg) She ran in 4 races - 6 x 50 meter shuttle, 70 meter, 8 x 70 meter shuttle and 100 meter. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/IMG_20190420_124651.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/IMG_20190420_131146.jpg) 4 races. 4 blue ribbons! ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/00100lPORTRAIT_00100_BURST20190420131816771_COVER.jpg) Last year we never thought she ran as fast as she could during her races. This year she left some kids in her dust. 😲 ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/00100sPORTRAIT_00100_BURST20190420132050634_COVER.jpg) Saturday night was picnic night. The weather has been amazing, so we've been having lots of picnics lately. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/IMG_20190420_185529.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/00100lPORTRAIT_00100_BURST20190420185539345_COVER.jpg) The girls were very excited to look for their baskets on Easter morning. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/IMG_20190421_075939.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/IMG_20190421_080026.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/IMG_20190421_080021.jpg) Chocolate egg for breakfast? Why not. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/00100lPORTRAIT_00100_BURST20190421080238245_COVER.jpg) We had friends over all Sunday afternoon, so the girls played non-stop, Emma got her first skinned knee falling off her bike and we got a surprise visit from the ice cream truck. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/IMG_20190423_193510.jpg) Emma just asked this week when the ice cream truck would come. I told her it wouldn't be for a couple weeks. Apparently he decided to take advantage of the nice weather and start early. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/IMG_20190421_171455.jpg) Emma woke up this morning exhausted and not feeling well, so I kept her home from school to rest and feel better. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/00100lPORTRAIT_00100_BURST20190422095739045_COVER.jpg) It turned out to be her lucky day to get to stay home. A friend of mine asked if I could watch her cat and dog for a couple hours. Emma loved every minute and didn't want to give the pets back. 😂 ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/IMG_20190422_110702.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/00100lPORTRAIT_00100_BURST20190422112819510_COVER.jpg) Emma was all about the dog. She didn't leave her side the whole 2 hours. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/IMG_20190422_115047_1.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/00100lPORTRAIT_00100_BURST20190422115850719_COVER.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/IMG_20190422_121057.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/IMG_20190422_120725.jpg) Olivia followed the cat everywhere he went. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/IMG_20190422_123607_1.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/IMG_20190422_123618.jpg) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/37/53/3753a80f-8fde-4050-bece-f7bceee6e14c/content/images/2019/04/IMG_20190422_123611.jpg) We all got into bed early tonight to hopefully catch up on some sleep and get back to our normal routine tomorrow. 🤞🏼
