Happy Easter!

Happy Easter everyone!!  We hope you've had a great Easter long weekend and have had the opportunity to spend some good quality time with your families :)  Our weekend has been wonderful so far!!

Saturday we headed to Prairie Gardens and Greenhouses for their annual Easter Festival, where we met the "Stony Plain Cameron's" for a fun-filled day!!  Emerson was thrown off her game by the tractor/trailer ride from the parking lot to the "farm", but got over that fairly quickly ;)  The kids had a lot of fun doing a little egg hunt, navigating through a bale maze, visiting the petting zoo, doing some Easter themed crafts and taking in a puppet show!  It was a bit windy, but overall good weather for spending a few hours outside!  Reese was a gem, which seems to be her usual :)  As we were driving away, all 3 kids fell asleep, so we took a little detour down a few country roads and checked out some subdivisions west of the city.  Then swung by Mt. Fugi to pick up supper!!  Oh and early Saturday morning I had a facial at Body Polish ... what a great day :)

Easter Sunday the kids woke up to their basket of goodies from the Easter bunny!  Blake was SO excited to see the Easter bunny had left him a Peyton Manning toy!!  Emerson polished off nearly a bag of mini eggs before we even knew she was in them ... definitely her Mom's girl ;)  Reese enjoyed shaking her new rattle and we got a cute pic of our little bunnies:

I attempted to get a nice family picture of the 5 of us "dressed up" before we left for Church, but that didn't happen and we were a few minutes late for Church!!  Blake and Emerson had fun at Sunday school - they did an egg hunt and colored Easter pictures.  Later this afternoon our friends Eric, Christa and Berlyn came over for a visit and dinner.  Christa brought her homemade perogies ... they were delicious!!!  Yum, yum, yum ... thanks Christa :)  We had another fun day and the kids were all tuckered out at bedtime!!

My parents are back from their vacation and are coming over for the day tomorrow.  Blake and Em are excited to see them and to see what the Stony Plain Easter bunny may have brought them ... !!  Hopefully it will be another warm day tomorrow and we can play outside.  Blake was so happy that the snow had melted enough to get his bike out of the shed this week!  Emerson tries to ride an old tricycle we have, but can't quite reach the peddles!  We were going to buy her a coup car for her birthday, but I think we're going to look at one of those trikes you can push or pedal.  We'll get her to try one at Toys R Us and see what she thinks!!

Happy Easter from our family to yours :)

xoxo The Cameron's
