On Saturday we drove down to southeast Texas to participate in Kevin's extended family's annual Easter celebration. In typical family fashion, there is always a massive spread of delicious food prepared in the chance that a hungry army stops by to join us. This year we were able to contribute to the sweets section with a batch of chocolate covered peeps, and two of Kevin's now famous lemon chess pies.
August made up for his lack of Easter activity involvement last year, by hugging all of his relatives, showing off his walking abilities, trying to keep up with the big kids, and of course hunting for easter eggs this time around. While he and fellow hunter, Aubrey, humored us for photo opps, we're not sure they quite understand what all of the fuss is about.
And while we had originally planned to stay with Kevin's cousins, we decided to make the late night trek back home so that we could get a head start on preparing for the busy week ahead. Luckily for August, the Easter Bunny made note of the location change just in time to leave his basket-full of goodies. While he still doesn't know that there will be loads of candy in the years to come, he was more than happy to play with his new toys.
It was a wonderful weekend, and we're so thankful that we were all able to get a bit of recovery down-time in before we head into the busy week tomorrow.
