Easter

This was Nate's second Easter and it was much better than his first. Last Easter was the day Nate had his first tummy surgery. He was a very sick little boy and we weren't sure he was going to make it through the day. This year was much more calm!

We decided to make Easter Macie and Ellie's day. We figured a holiday focused on resurrection was a great day to spend talking about and visiting our girls. We took a trip to Twin Falls to visit the cemetery. We couldn't have asked for better weather! It was 70 degrees and gorgeous. The cemetery they are at is really great. It seems more like a park than a cemetery. There is a walking path, a little duck pond with a fountain, and a little playground. We put Nate in the stroller and walked around for a little while before we found the girls' spot. We spent time playing in the grass for the first time and Nate didn't even mind it too much. He had a blast trying to grab all of the Easter treats that were left for other babies near the girls.
Ready to go

He's on a mission...


Success!
After the cemetery, we headed over to Todd's brother's house to have Easter dinner. It was Nate's first time playing with his cousins and he wasn't quite sure what to think of it at first. He wasn't used to having 4 little kids all performing for his attention. It took him some time but we all ended up having a ton of fun. He especially loved the birthday present they picked out for him! Thanks Brian, Katherine, Abby, Tyler, Alyssa, and Anna!






I'd say he had a good day!
