-I took Collin to the Ringling Bros. Circus with the Kniskerns - so much fun! Collin couldn't stop talking about the strong men, elephants, and his first ever snow cone; I was in awe of the tigers and how tame yet wild they were, not to mention gorgeous! We had a nice lunch at Red Robin after (Collin ate 15 shrimp, a cup of broccoli, and a cup of oranges).
-Olivia spent some quality time playing ball and buckles (her two obsessions) with GamB, Grandpa, Aunt Karen, Pat, and Chris while Mike went on a long overdue bike ride, the first of the season for him.
-We played outside in the afternoon while Mike made dinner (salmon, more shrimp, green beans, couscous, and bunny cookies for dessert).
Sunday (Easter)
-The kids had a quick cereal breakfast before heading outside to search for eggs and baskets left by the Easter Bunny. Both kids love their new bedtime friends (Collin named his rabbit Hoppit, and Olivia named her lamb Babaa).
-I made brunch consisting of strawberry pancakes, homefries, and breakfast burritos....mmmm!
-While Olivia napped, Collin and I went to the Leesburg Animal Park to pet and hold baby animals (bunnies, goats, lambs, and ducklings), feed adult animals, play in an over-sized sandbox, meet the Easter Bunny, and go on an egg hunt. Collin found 15 eggs!
-After a quick change, we were off to GamB and Grandpa's for Easter dinner and birthday dessert (it was Grandpa's bday on Easter) with Aunt Karen, Matt, Kathleen, and Mila (her first Easter and holiday get-together). In between meals, we fit in a little Skype with GrampyShaSha. I just had to show them Olivia's ensemble - another Polly Flinders number from my old wardrobe. :)
Enjoy the photos!!
