Happy Easter!

Mommy, Daddy & Alexa enjoyed a wonderful Easter weekend together at home this year (Since we have been out of our home three weeks this month, this was a treat.) It was an action-packed weekend including two Easter egg hunts, A’s 1st bike ride on OU’s campus, fountain splashing, church, resurrection eggs & Easter lunch with Mike & Ginger Tinney. The weekend was just perfect for playing outside and celebrating the resurrection of our Lord. The tomb is empty! Jesus is alive!!

ALEXA’S EASTER DRESS
I have to start with Alexa’s Easter dress. My sis & I always had a new dress for Easter. It’s very special to carry on that tradition thanks to Mimi.

THE LIDDELL EASTER EGG HUNT
Because of the dear friends I’ve met at BSF, Alexa is invited to this family & friends Easter egg hunt. It’s packed full of kiddos & oodles of eggs. So delightful! Alexa’s only concern this year was the size of her basket. She quickly noticed the other children’s baskets were bigger. I feel like a bad mother for not getting her a special one – maybe next year. This basket was given to us from a neighbor shortly after she was born when she was cleaning out her house (is that bad)? If the treats inside the eggs weren’t enough, Alexa also enjoyed the ice-cream push-up at the end. When we got in the car, Alexa said she really enjoyed “picking Easter eggs.”

AN ADVENTURE ON CAMPUS
Since Alexa received a big girl bicycle for her 3rd birthday (yes, a blog update is in the works), she often asks to go on an adventure. This weekend’s outing included her first bike ride at OU & fountain splashing followed by dinner at Fuzzy’s Taco Shop. (Notice the progression of the wetness of her pants in the fountain pics.)

SUNDAY AFTERNOON AT THE TINNEYS
A precious family invited us to join them for an Easter feast & festivities after church on Sunday. It was a delightful afternoon including a full-fledged Easter egg hunt just for Alexa. Mike & Ginger really made Alexa feel special, and she loooooooved it!! She also loved playing with the Tinney’s dog, Mocha. When we left she said, “I had fun hunting eggs & chasing the dog.”
