Our weekend began on Saturday morning. We had already loaded and packed the car on Friday night, so when we woke up in the morning we just had to get ready and grab the last minute items and hit the road. We spend Easter with the McKenzie family each year. Grandma lives just far enough away that no matter what time we leave, we still have to stop somewhere and have a nursing session. Needless to say, it is not the quickest or easiest trip. We arrived just in time for lunch.
Shortly after lunch we had a little Easter egg hunt. It was a beautiful day and perfect for spending all afternoon outside!
We ate our big Easter meal Saturday night with friends and family. Grandma is such a wonderful cook! She made: fried chicken, boston butt, mashed potatoes, gravy, green beans, lima beans, deviled eggs, corn bread, applesauce, pickled beets, lemon meringue pie, german chocolate cake and pound cake. (all homemade!) It was pretty evident that after dinner we could not move!

Sunday we headed to church. Grace looked so beautiful is her smocked dress! This was the first dress I bought when I found out that we were having a girl. I was waiting for a special occasion for her to wear!
After church and lots of leftovers we needed to go outside and move. We headed to one of my old stomping grounds and went for a 6 mile run. It felt so good, and was perfect weather!
Monday and Tuesday was spent hanging out with family and friends! We had the best weekend we have had in a long time!
