Easter Sunday

I've been putting off updating, because I'm fast approaching our trip to Disneyland, and posts with a lot of pictures are sort of a pain, but I realized it's been two months since my last post, and I started doing this to help remember events in my daughter's life, so I'm going to try to get started again.
On Easter Sunday, we were invited to a brunch/egg hunt. Here are all the kids listening to the rules of the hunt.

Alexis wasn't quite sure what was going to happen, so she asked the girl next to her,

but she still wasn't real sure.

The little kids got a one minute head start, and Alexis quickly figured things out (with Daddy's help, of course).

She really enjoyed it.


I think she especially enjoyed the time with Daddy.



Daddy enjoyed it too.



Then, after the hunt, it was playtime.

This is one of Alexis' favorite games.

Daddy picks her up off the ground, and

spins her high in the air.

Wheeeeeee!

Then it was on to other things.

Girls and their trucks.

Grandma O. would be so proud!

I'm not sure what was going on here.


Another truck.

Daddy is so silly.

All in all, a great day!

Carnival

One day, Mommy & Daddy noticed that there was a carnival that had arrived just a few blocks from our house, so we decided to take Alexis and go check it out.
This was her first Ferris Wheel ride.

The sun was very bright!

Mommy & Alexis enjoying the ride.

The view.

Can you see our house? Nah, me neither.

The Strip.

Alexis really enjoyed it.


Daddy did too.

Ducky game.

Silly girl.

Daddy played darts.

Then, on to the Merry-Go-Round.

Mommy loves her little girl.

Hold on tight!

So much fun!

Smiling for Daddy.

Next up, the dragon ride.


Come on, Daddy!

Silly Daddy!

The sea turtle (Daddy's dart winnings) came along for a ride too!

Alexis enjoyed the Ferris Wheel so much, that she wanted to go again,
but we only had enough tickets for two riders,

so Mommy waited on the ground while Daddy & Alexis went on again.

Waiting for their turn.

Ready to go!

Up, up and away!

There they go!

Coming back down.

All done.

What carnival would be complete without trying some cotton candy?
Mmmmm...delicious!
