Easter 2015

 I finally uploaded pictures onto the computer, so I decided, I should update the blog!

We had a great Easter holiday. A few weeks before Easter, Josh and I took the girls to the mall to see the Easter bunny. Since everyone was dressed cute, I decided to take come pictures.

 

Alexa wanted nothing to do with the Easter bunny this year! We ALMOST had a meltdown, but once she got far enough away from him, she was ok.

 

Everyone got in on Easter egg decorating this year. Alexa had a great time, and Avery got to show off her artistic talents.

 

 

 

Avery and Alexa got some jammies and toys in their Easter basket this year.



girlfriend LOVES peeps!

seriously! She gets so excited every year when they come out at the grocery store.



Alexa is really getting into Doc McStuffins, she loves her toys.

We all got dressed and headed to church.

 And yes, Avery is in crocs, sometimes its just not worth it to fight over shoes!

Mardi gras 2015

Besides the Nonna Randazzo's King cake we did not get into the Mardi gras spirit this year. We were out of town or under the weather for most of tthe parades. 

Avery did have her school parade the Friday before Mardi gras, so that was a lot of fun. 

Alexa quickly figured out how it worked. 

And had a blast with her loot!

Mardi gras day was FREEZING! I honestly didn't think we would brave the elements this year, but everyone woke up happy and healthy and ready to play. I bundled all of us up in about three layers and we headed out!

This was the forecast and me trying to stay warm. 

I am so glad we ended up going. The girls really got into it this year. Alexa was do cute dancing, waving and hollering for beads. 

Chad and Jamie met us out there with their crew. Josh's Aunt and cousins were there as well. 

Despite the cold I know everyone had a great time. 

After the parades rolled through, we headed to Josh's grandparents to warm up and eat gumbo. We went through an old box of beads from around the 1970's. It's amazing how much they have changed since then. These beads were mostly glass with brass closures, they we all colors and shapes imaginable. They are collectors items now, and even then I am sure they weren't left on the street to be trashed like they are now. Happy Mardi gras!!!
