<\/a><\/p>\nA little while after the sun went down, a friend of my hubby’s came over with his telescope and beer and we all sat on the deck and looked for Mars. \u00a0It was a perfectly clear night and we had a pretty good time. \u00a0It just needs to get a little bit warmer to make star gazing a more regular occurrence;)<\/p>\n
Saturday morning we had an Easter block party with our neighbors. \u00a0We attended something similar in the fall, and it was so much fun! \u00a0Everyone brings something for a pot luck style meal and we all hang out chatting and eating. \u00a0For the Easter block party, everyone hid eggs in their front yards for the kiddos to find. \u00a0One of our neighbors made orange bowknots, and they were so delicious! \u00a0The block party was from 10am-12pm but we ended up having to leave early to make it to Chelan for my sister-in-law’s birthday celebration.<\/p>\n
We had a very fun day in Chelan, filled with wine tasting at different wineries with my hubby’s family- celebrating his sister’s 22nd birthday. \u00a0(And his grandma’s 70th!) \u00a0Wine tasting in Chelan was a first for me, and I fell in love with some of the wineries in my favorite lakeside town! \u00a0Here are a few snapshots from the day.<\/p>\n Easter Sunday started with church at 8 a.m. \u00a0It was so powerful. \u00a0I adore celebrating Easter at church. \u00a0He is risen, he is risen indeed! \u00a0<\/em>After church we headed out to my mom’s house for brunch and Easter fun. \u00a0Our brunch showstoppers were these cinnamon rolls<\/a>, AKA the best cinnamon rolls ever. \u00a0 We also had hard boiled eggs (of course), bacon, sausage, and lots of fresh fruit. \u00a0We had Easter dinner later on, which consisted of pulled pork sandwiches, brats, chips & salsa, and twice baked potatoes. \u00a0For dessert we all had an\u00a0ice cream cone, which my lovely little 5 year old niece handed out to everyone before getting to enjoy one herself. \u00a0The day was full of Easter shenanigans, playing in the sun, and lots of love and laughter.<\/p>\n Needless to say, by the time we made it home Sunday evening we were wiped. \u00a0Definitely a weekend for the books! \u00a0Here’s to a new week!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<\/a> <\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/a><\/a> <\/a><\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/a><\/a><\/p>\n
