Easter Weekend

We had a great Easter Weekend!

Our weekend started off on Thursday night when we had a super fun sleep-over with Ally! David picked her up from after-school care, and then we headed to Moe's for a yummy dinner. After dinner, we walked down to Yogurt Mountain. It was sooooooooo yummy, and so much fun! Ally and I played computer games, while Uncle David relaxed, and then we headed to bed. It wasn't a very exciting night, but it was lots of fun!

On Friday morning, Ally, Grayson, and I drove to Jackson to have breakfast with Grandma. I needed to see a few clients, so the grandkids spent part of the day in Humboldt. I hated having to work on Good Friday, but I was very happy that Grandma and the grandkids got to spend some time together.

Saturday was spent doing some Spring Cleaning, some yard work, and getting ready for the Plank Family Easter. We had a great afternoon! We cooked out yummy turkey bacon cheeseburgers, hunted Easter eggs, and just enjoyed spending time together.

David and I went on a date that night, thanks to a last minute sitter agreeing to "watch" Grayson (he was in bed the whole time, so it was an easy job!). Thanks, Anna!!! We both really enjoyed having a chance to be together just the two of us. We watched the Grizzlies game, had a few drinks, and were home by 11pm. :)

On Sunday morning, Grayson opened his Easter basket, and Daddy got one, too! We really noticed how much Grayson seemed to understand what was going on when we gave him his basket. He smiled, laughed, and grabbed at each thing in his basket. It was super cute! :)

The Easter Bunny gave Grayson some books, bibs, a movie, bath toys, clothes, and a really cute photo album of all the people who love him!

Gammi came to celebrate Easter with us, and she came bearing gifts! She brought us some t-shirts from her recent trip to the B ahamas, and she also brought me some BEAUTIFUL jewelry for my birthday! We had a really fun and relaxing day together! We even made a trip to Mississippi to look at some houses. We stopped for ice cream, and then headed home so Grayson and I could take a nap! :)

As much fun as our weekend was, it ended on a very crappy note. We headed to Cooper Young Sunday night to enjoy a family dinner on the patio of Cafe Ole. It was such a nice evening to be outside! We had a delicious dinner, and Grayson really enjoyed people-watching. Unfortunately, while we were enjoying our dinner, someone tried to steal David's truck! Thankfully, they weren't successful, but they did manage to cause about $500 worth of damage to the door. Needless to say, we were beyond. And, we now have a top-of-the-line alarm installed.

Overall, we very much enjoyed our weekend. We feel very blessed to have been able to spend time together with the ones that we love the most! Thank you for checking in on us! As always, we love you all!
