Fashion Designer in the making

WOW! What else is there to say about this amazingly "creative" outfit? Alyssa put this outfit together herself - obviously, because her mother has WAY more fashion sense than this...and then she begged me to take a photo of her.
Alyssa: "Don't I look cute Mom?"
Me: "Yes, of course...but do you think you match very well?"
Alyssa: "Yes, there is pink in everything! Duh."
What could I say after that? She was right - every piece of her outfit had SOME pink in it...so to her it matched. She is always on the cutting edge of fashion and could be the next Versace' or Vera Wang...her initials already are A.E. like American Eagle...who knows???? This could be the next big look? Keep an eye out for it.

Hoppy Easter!

We hosted our 1st Easter Brunch and Egg Hunt Extravaganza on Sunday - even though the weather didn't fully cooperate, the kids didn't seem to mind and squished around outside hunting for the 200 eggs + 9 Golden eggs!!! We had all of our kids, Will & Jon, our neighbors: Jack, Hailey & Makalaya and of course our best buddies: Paige & Justin (not in photo - must have been inside counting their loot already).

Miss Harper and Auntie Amanda joined us too. We finally got a photo of the "twins from another mother" together! Ashton attempted to share her toys with Harper, but I think we'll need to work on that more in the future...I think Ashton was just jealous of Harper's pretty hairdo & bow.



Alyssa thoroughly enjoyed the egg hunt and could barely stand still for this brief photo during it - hence the odd expression on her face.?.? (I think she had spotted another egg and needed to get it before anyone else - she has her mommy's competitive spirit!)



Ashton didn't understand what all the fuss was about - why were they all trying to get as many eggs as you can?...you only need ONE egg to put in your mouth and drool all over, right?
