    Familie Schmitt

    The Easter Bunny left our home days ago, but yet we are still finding strands of Easter grass in the strangest places. Somehow the old hare figured out that cousins AJ and John were also staying at the Familie Schmitt house. He (ahem, me) put together and hid baskets full of fun and lots of eggs full of candy and coins.

    Sunday was gorgeous and was an uncommon bright spot amidst many dreary and cold spring Minnesota days. It was a treat to be outside to snap some family photos and to hunt for eggs. We also took a walk to a near-by park and around the neighborhood. We walked off the delectable meal Mike made and prepared our stomachs for the Lemon Raspberry cupcakes that I had baked.

    It was a busy time preparing for the holiday, but seeing the kids love their baskets and have so much fun on their egg hunt made every bit of stress worth it!
