Soon we were off to spend the day at Grandpa Kirk and Grandma Linda's house. They had prepared an Easter gift for her, too! She got a cute bucket with animal crackers (her favorite treat!), raisins and a washrag rolled into a bunny. We spent most of the day just hanging out at the house. Harper enjoyed playing with Alyssa's old toys - she was a busy girl with the kitchen, play food, a little wagon and coloring. Aunt Em decided that ice cream sounded good so we went out to Dairy Queen for a treat. Aunt Em tried to share her ice cream with Harper - however, our little sweetie pie still doesn't like how cold it is and immediately made a terrible face and spit it out. It was pretty hilarious.
That evening we spent time with Grandma Ruth and Grandpa Dennis. Harper spent time doing laps around the house and terrorizing Bo and Stella - who she called by name. She loves dogs. Stella was a good sport and enjoyed playing games with her. Harper was a little rough on poor Bo - she loved grabbing onto his longer hair and pulling out little tufts. Soon Bo was hiding from her, I think.
The next day the Thompson clan came over to celebrate with us. It's amazing to see how much the kids have grown since Christmas. The girls did an awesome job playing with Harper - they sat in a circle and sang nursery rhymes with her and Harper LOVED the special attention. The girls also demonstrated their ability to do the Cup Song - and so now I'm determined to learn it, too! Harper had fun collecting her eggs - she did surprisingly well walking around to find her eggs and very much enjoyed the mini candy bars inside. I am also happy to report that I won the adult egg hunt and came home a $100 richer!
As usual, the weekend was a whirlwind - but it's so worth it since we get to hang with our awesome family!
