Eggstravaganza 2011

Each year our church hosts an Easter event called Eggstravaganza for the city of Williamsburg. We were excited to take Ian to his first one. We had everything from bounce houses to putt putt, an Easter egg hunt, tattoo station (my fave), cotton candy, and Ian's favorite-the duck hunt which amounted to him splashing in a tub of water! We really loved hosting such a fun time for our great community!

Playtime in Moulton

I love taking Ian places that meant a lot to me as a child and the "mini" park in Moulton is one of those places. Fred and I took him for playtime and a picnic (BBQ no less) during our Moulton trip. And though the log bridge and tire swing have been replaced with updated equipment, it's still fun playing with Ian in the park where I grew up.

A Quick Trip to the Plains

We stopped in Auburn during our southeastern travels to marvel at the National Title Trophy and see the new banner at Jordan Hare. We dropped by the Auburn museum for a quick snapshot with Aubie and then headed to one of my favorite restaurants, Amsterdam Cafe for lunch with Jim and Mary Brinkerhoff. I love visiting my "home away from home" if even for an afternoon and letting Ian experience a small piece of Auburn.

Easter Egg Hunting and Playtime

Ian hunted Easter eggs and spent time playing outside with Granddaddy, CoCo, Aunt Amber, and Aunt Aprile during our GA visit. He's come along way since egg hunting last year and found them pretty quickly. He really enjoyed drawing with sidewalk chalk and playing ball.

Decorating Easter Eggs

Ian dyed eggs this spring for the first time while visiting the Liggin's in GA. He liked dropping them in the dye more than actually decorating. He got quite disturbed when one broke. Poor kid...he hates messes.

Ian's First Braves Game

We took Ian to opening weekend for Braves baseball this year. He only sat through 2 innings, but really seemed to enjoy the entire Braves experience.

Snow Boots in Spring

I bought Ian a pair of Toy Story snow boots last week to prepare for our crazy winters. He loved them and asked to wear "Woody/Buzz" all day!
