On Saturday we ventured out to our Botanical Garden to see Peter Rabbit as well as the start of "One Million Blooms."
Although Carter was really excited about wearing his bunny shirt, he was less than excited to sit on Peter Rabbit's lap.
But shortly after we saw Peter Rabbit, we found the sandbox.
We shoveled sand, made hand prints in the sand, buried and dug out a dinosaur in the sand. It was lots of fun. And after 45 minutes Carter was still loving it. But we convinced him there were lots of other fun things to do, like have an ice cream cone. Yummy!
When we got home there was still enough daylight for a couple of rounds of hiding/finding eggs. We have been playing this game all week and Carter loves it.
This morning, Carter was very excited that the Easter Bunny had visited - especially when he discovered that the Easter Bunny filled his eggs with chocolate!
The Easter Bunny brought Carter a few new books and some stickers which will provide hours of entertainment. Thank you Easter Bunny!
Here are a few pictures from our little guy all dressed up for church.
Our dogwood tree popped this weekend - Carter is checking out the new blooms.
After church we walked to Strawberry Street Cafe for brunch. Then we strolled over to Monumnent Avenue for the Easter On Parade.

This title is a bit confusing because there isn't a parade. Unless you count everyone that comes out for the event and strolls up and down the street in their Easter best, crazy hats, and dressed up dogs. Still it is a lot of fun with lots of vendors, puppets, music, etc. We enjoyed parading up and down the street and then came home so Carter could take a little nap.
It has been a great Easter weekend and we hope each of you have had a blessed weekend as well.
(Grandparents: (and anyone else interested) there are more pictures in the April album in the left sidebar. Enjoy!)
Happy Easter to you all!! The kitchen is looking awesome!! Can't wait to see you all some time in the near future. We can rub bellies! Blessings. :)
