Easter Weekend Recap

Easter weekend started on Friday with a drive up I-5 to Portland for Meghan's 30th Birthday Party! Ella was such a little party animal that she got kicked out at 9pm. She loves a good party. We also got some great news from our friends, Justin and Lindsey:)

After staying the night at Uncle B and Aunt T's  house, all the Nelsons went for breakfast at Ben's favorite place around the corner from their house.

Here is proof that Tamisha would make a Great Mom to a little kid named Royal!

Later that day, we made our way over to Mikey and Andrea's to meet the newest Anderson...
Here is Tucker James Anderson.  He is long & lean and a twin to his daddy! Congrats Mike and Andrea!

Easter Morning!
The Easter Bunny left our little Bunny a basket full of treats,
and her favorite... Milk.

Before we left for Easter Brunch, we went for a walk with Ella's cousin, Buckley.

The Anderson Easter Brunch
Most of the cousins. There were 3 babies born since last Easter!

Ella's gal pal Addie!

The Egg Hunt




After the kids had their fun, the adults played Minute to Win It games.
This was the only pic that I snapped... The old yo-yo beer can trick. All I can say, is the Mark's Aunt Nancy and I rocked the noodle beer can pyramid! Mark also dominated the ping-pong booty dance!

Ella had so much fun that she zonked out before we left.

When we stopped in Salem, Ella and I had a little impromptu photo shoot while Mark was in the store.
I love the flushed cheeks from just waking up.



She is changing soooo fast lately! Love her to pieces!

Awbrey Park Art!

I'm so proud of our Awbrey Park Art Show! It showcases our amazing little artists and makes for a great family fun event. We also managed to raise over $1100 for Art in the classroom!
(Below is a picture of every project...Pretty boring for anyone that doesn't work at an elementary school:)

 I also painted this child's rocking chair to donated to the raffle. Almost too cute to donate. I'll be painting one for Ella this summer.

That wraps up AP Art Show 2011, I already have some new ideas for next year!
