Easter

Easter was spent going to church, the fun of watching Harper look through what the Easter Bunny dropped off, and with Cody's family hunting eggs and yummy food. Harper was a pro egg hunter once again, and we had a fun adult Easter egg hunt that was quite entertaining - and maybe a little serious at times. :) We even got the news that Cody's cousin was expecting his first baby with his sweet wife. It was one special Easter!

Hip Hip Hop

We celebrated Easter early with my family, and it was literally one of the best days.

I blogged - way back when - that after my grandfather passed away, we were going to have to move my grandmother out of their house and sell their home that housed so many of childhood and even adult memories. You can check out the post H E R E of our four generations pictures before the house was going to be sold.

But I never think I actually shared that we didn't sell the house at all.

Well, we did - BUT! - my parents bought my grandparents house instead.

So now, traditions continue, but new ones will get to be made.

It was a huge part of my childhood, and I'm THRILLED that it now gets to be for Harper.

I bring it up becuase this was probably one of the first official holidays celebrated over there with my parents and Harper, so it made it even more special.

We had dinner, Easter dessert, and Harper went on her very FIRST Easter egg hunt - and let me just say - totally rocked it. We showed her a couple of times how to put her eggs in her basket and BOOM. Instant egg hunter professional. 

 

 

Color Run 2017

This is pretty much one of my FAVORITE days of the entire year.

I'm not even joking.

The Color Run is an absolute BLAST - even if you hate exercising.

There's just something so fun about getting colored powder all over you and being care-free about it.

Ashley and I had signed up to do it, but a few days before we had the best. idea. ever.

Get the husbands to go too! Cody and I are always talking about doing stuff together, continue dating each other - and what a fun and different way to do it. We were so thankful my mom was able to watch Harpie. We left super early that morning and headed to Atlanta Motor Speedway. We checked in, and got started as soon as we could. The guys made it so fun. They were silly and crazy, but totally what we all needed. 

(And I totally ran more than I thought I could - and didn't even feel awful about it. Last year's I wasn't at my healthiest (post-baby bod) (post HERE!). It's amazing what working out and being healthy can do for ya. :P )

I think we all decided that we were going to be doing this every year because it was THAT fun.

Thelma & Louise

These two.

I'm not sure which one is Thelma, and which one is Louise.

But the older Harper is getting, the more these two are becoming best buds.

I grew up with a best friend that was older than me, and I absolutely loved it.

We had so many laughs, and she taught me how to get in trouble. :)

Not that Nora will, but I looked up to her.

When Ashley had Nora, I hoped and prayed we would have a little girl that could be best friends with her. Ashley is my absolute best friend in the world, and how sweet it would be if we had two girls that were too. So to see my prayers come to life, it's quite magical in the most precious little girl way.
