March Holidays

Because Easter falls so early this year, we were able to celebrate two holidays this weekend - St. Patrick's Day and Easter. (Next weekend, Carter and I will be in Arkansas, and Thomas will be in Orlando watching the Braves' spring training, so this was our chance to do Easter eggs together.)
Park, Ashley, Anna and Angie came over to celebrate with us. Everyone was very accommodating (if not completely understanding) my compulsion to color all our beverages green (how else do you celebrate St. Patrick's Day?). The green iced coffees were, admittedly, a little strange. The funniest part of the afternoon was when Carter kept snatching the dyed eggs and trying to eat them. He was confused and disappointed when his teeth kept hitting shell. We did peel a couple for him, which he chowed down.

I love it - this reminds me of dying Easter eggs at your place in NYC a couple years back. You were SO pregnant. Where's the shot of your tummy matching the shape of a dyed Easter egg when you need it?

Awwwwww, I MISSED egg dying? Maybe we will do some more.
PS I know all babies are cute, but Anna is particularly beautiful.

I can always dye more eggs, mom.

Shannon - Ashley is even wearing the same t-shirt that I wore when we dyed eggs together two years ago. It's a shame she wasn't still pregnant ;) or we could have taken a matching egg-belly shot.

Iron-cheffing the hardboiled eggs wasn't the same without you, though!
