Prairie Fruits Farm and Creamery

For the last couple of years, Prairie Fruits Farm and Creamery has been holding "breakfasts at the farm" for the couple of weeks leading up to the opening of the Farmer's Market. We've always meant to go... but never actually made it. Well, today we had our act together and got out there... early. It was a bit hectic, but breakfast was delicious, and Wes, the owner was super nice. I think Adam wants to grow up and be him ;). Honestly, I wouldn't mind that either, the lifestyle looks sooooo relaxing.

Anyway, a couple of our friends joined us and the girls thought the baby goats were the coooooooolest.

Easter egg hunting with friends

Since this was the first real Easter that Madison was old enough to get excited about it, we did a LOT of Easter egg hunts. We're so lucky to have so many great friends in the area to hang out with!









Easter Photo Shoot

Since I am always the one behind the camera, we have lots of adorable shots of Madison, but not many of us as a family. So, since Joe was in town, I wanted to take advantage of his sweet photog skillz and get a family photo. Madison was seriously overwhelmed by the day so far and all the people... so needless to say, the shoot went less than stellar. BUT, Joe still got some great shots. Thanks Joe!! I appreciate your patience!







Aunt Omie and Uncle Joe

We don't get to see these guys nearly enough. I think the last time they saw Madison she was about five months old. It was awesome to get to hang out with them both for a solid four days over the Easter break. And, Madison LOVED showing Aunt Omie and Uncle Joe all of her new skills.

 Our attempt at a family picture. It was kind of a disaster.

 
Madison in all of her Easter cuteness. My mom found this adorable dress for her—I love it! (and her too of course)

 One of the ridiculously adorable outfits that Joe brought from Cali. Madison was jazzercising it up while getting kisses from Aunt Omie.

 Joe came to Madison's Easter party at daycare. Madison really got a kick out of him being there, and so did Miss Addy there in the background :)


Reading

Although we've been reading to her since she was born, she is just now starting to show an interest in the activity. She'll bring me her favorites to read over and over... and over and over :)

Brushing her teeth

This little girl likes to do ANYTHING that mommy is doing. While I get ready in the morning, she is doing the same—brushing her teeth and her hair, putting product in her hair, and putting her lip gloss on.
