Jack had a great first Easter. We have known since before Jack was born that he would have a big loving family... with great holiday traditions, and wonderful grandparents, great grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins to share these holidays with. Obviously Jack doesn't know exactly what all of this means just yet.. but Easter seemed to be the first holiday that he was at least able to enjoy playing with cousins, etc. Because he's walking.. he "participated" in easter egg hunts, swung the bat at the pinata (with grandma's help), enjoyed easter sweets, and had a fun day. You can tell he loves being around people because he laughs and gets really excited when he's around new people, especially other kids. We started the Easter celebrations at our house Saturday when we celebrated with the Krus family. The Easter bunny had stopped at Aunt Ginny's and G&G Krus' house and Jack enjoyed his baskets. Sunday we went to the Shrine for Mass - which was outside this year because it was a gorgeous day. Then we headed to brunch with the Sullivan family and back to Great Grandma and Grandpa Sullivan's house for an easter egg hunt, a scavenger hunt and the annual pinata.. so much fun! In the afternoon Mimi and Grandpa Bill hosted the Schaefer family for dinner and an adult and kid easter egg hunt. We had such a fun day celebrating Jack's first Easter.
