Easter 2017

For Easter this year we went to Little Rock to spend time with the Johnsons. For Christmas, Jenna had bought Ann and Campbell tickets to Riverdance and this was the weekend of the show. We thought we would parlay it into an opportunity to visit our old pastor in his new digs in downtown Little Rock for Easter Sunday. We were able to cram a lot into a weekend. Jenna and I went on a bike ride with a date night, the kids got some fishing in, the ballet, I was able to take Noah to Pinnacle Mountain and climb the hard side (I swear it wasn't that hard 25 years ago) Easter eggs, and finally the kids got to see the Big Dam Bridge after a year or two giggling at it's name. Solid weekend. 

Easter 2012

Happy Easter weekend everybody.  I hope your holiday was wonderful.  Ours was fairly busy but enjoyable.  

The big story of the weekend was Campbell giving her pacifier to the Easter Bunny.  As you know we've built it up big time over the past 2 weeks.  She was all excited but on Saturday morning we went to the Easter egg hunt at our church.  Guess who was there. The...Easter...Bunny

I went home and got her pacifiers and brought her one.  Well, stage fright set in.  A 5 foot person in a bunny costume can kind of do that I guess.  She wouldn't go near him.  She wouldn't even look at him.  I had the good camera out and rolling to capture the moment in it's HD glory, but she just hid behind us.  She walked over to me with her arms out with that scared look.  So I stopped filming and picked her up.  She put her head on my shoulder looking away from the Easter bunny. 

Then the funniest thing happened.  She took the pacy out of her mouth and-without looking mind you- threw the pacy to him behind her back.  When I say she threw it, I mean she THREW IT.  It went about 30 feet and skidded up to the bunny's feet.  She was so proud the rest of the day.  "Gave pas to Eater Bunny! Big girl!"

It was classic.
