Egg Hunt

Friends, I am behind again, BUT I have a good excuse. We will start with the Easter Egg hunt at the Governor's Mansion. This was Blair's 3rd visit, and I was so excited to get to take her all by myself. She and I had missed out on some good quality time together, so it meant a lot to me to be there with my girl. Her Quinny-Quinn and lil' ole Kathryn were also there, which made the morning extra fun. We got there just in time for the egg hunt to kick off. Each girl could hunt 5 eggs. I think Blair found 50 instead of 5.






Next, was story time. This year's story and free book centered around Clifford. Each guest received a book to take home and got to visit with Clifford the big red dog. Well, if you know Blair then you can imagine how that went. I think at one point I found her hiding in the First Lady's closet on the 3rd floor. She does NOT like characters.


However, she DOES like cookies. They had some yummy treats of all sorts for the girls to pig out on. We had the perfect amount of sweets right before lunchtime. It was awesome ;)


And last, but not least, we ran into Miss Addie on the way to the car. She had just gotten her face painted and looked adorable. Her mother and I would never bribe these girls for a picture, now would we???



It was such a fun morning, and next year we look forward to taking baby Carter with us. Blair, if you ever read this blog, I hope that you will appreciate the fact that your Mommy emailed the Governor's Mansion 4 short hours after baby sister's arrival to reserve your spot!! Oh, the joys of juggling 2 children!
