We decided to give Goosie her new play kitchen in the morning before church. It was too big to wrap so we cut one of those large plastic decorated gift bags and draped it over the top and taped it to the back. When she came out in the morning, she peeked underneath and we asked "what is it?". She replied "It's a tent!". We laughed so hard.
Yes, she's in her Christmas jammies in April, but they still fit so she still wears them :)
Before too long, we were off to church. Easter Sunday is Jus' very favorite holiday, and for a few years in a row now, we've listened to his favorite Easter worship CD in the morning at home or in the car on the way to church. It is quickly becoming a treasured Easter tradition. Every year our church service is held on the front lawn of one of our friend's homes overlooking the Pacific ocean. It is also where Jus and I got married, so it's got extra sentimental value to us. It was a beautiful day, and my friend Rebecca took a few photos of the birthday girl for me...
We were then off to the Duckie House to spend the rest of the day with Grammy Great, Grandma, Grandpa and Matt and Auntie Siso. These are a few of my favorite photos that were taken shortly after arriving...

And then the Easter egg hunt began. It was so fun to see Goosie walking around in her own unhurried style picking up Easter eggs. She loved it! She even found a small basket full of stickers and Teddy Grahams from Grammy Great at the end of her hunt!
And, she picked up a cute little duck and a few eggs for her little brother. I think he liked it!
Next came the Easter Baskets from us and from Grandma and Grandpa. Our tradition every year is to give them each a new bathing suit and sandals for summer in addition to their toys and candy.
After dinner, Goosie got to open her gifts; including a new tricycle from Grammy Great!
