Zoom In, Zoom Out: Easter Fun!

The Typepad platform has been down (in my case) for over four days. Whoever or whatever hacked the site certainly caused a big hassle!

But it’s back up today in time for Helena’s meme Zoom In, Zoom Out. This week was a no-brainer. After church we quickly changed clothes and went to Matt and Betsy’s to “help” Skylar with her Easter egg hunt. She loved it. We loved it.

“Oh, no,” cried Skylar when she saw this egg. Although the plastic eggs had only been in the yard a few minutes before we arrived, a squirrel had eaten away both ends of the egg and stolen the M&M inside!

We found another surprise during the Easter egg hunt, just outside the fenced in yard.

If you look closely you can see a nest with three tiny eggs. Here’s the momma who wandered off the nest as Skylar was looking for eggs along the fence. She didn’t seem overly concerned about us at all.

A family friend of Betsy’s arrived with a little wagon filled with two stuffed bunnies while we were there. Skylar loved the bunnies, but the wagon was the best gift.

Fortunately, Skylar is tiny so she’s not too big to be hauled around in the wagon herself. After her ride, she hoped her dad could get in. Not so much.

While we were in Chicago we took Caleb to the Museum of Science and Industry. Grandpa picked out a bubble gun for Skylar, and it was a huge hit with both Skylar and her dad.

I loved the pretty bokeh in this one. I hope you had a lovely weekend. Our weather was spectacular for a Rochester Easter, but it’s turned cold and rainy again today. Ah, Spring in western New York!
