Our Easter Sunday!






Easter isn't a 'huge' celebration in our household. The religious aspect isn't celebrated, as we do not follow a religion.. and Chocolate is a big treat, because Alyssa is still only young! This year we thought it would be important to empathise 'new life' and 'new beginnings'.

Triston was at work from 6-2 so we spentthe day at my mums house.

The day started by Alyssa opening her Easter basket [Blog on what is in her Easter basket is on the page]. We ate Hot cross buns and fruit for breakfast, then got dressed and set off down the road to my Mum's house.


My younger brother joined us for the walk, as he was at the park nearby (we live 2 seconds down the road from each other!) Alyssa loves her Uncle and held his hand all the way! 

At my mum's Alyssa received more goodies, and we held an indoor egg hunt because as usual the Great British weather let us down!

She actually understood how to look this year- which made it more exciting! She found 17 tiny eggs, and a giant Kinder Egg.. her beautiful face lit up knowing they were all for her- with the exception of mummy and daddy ;)
The afternoon was spent relaxing with family. When Daddy got home we snuggled under the blankets and watched Hop (Alyssa's 'bestest programme'- as she would put it).

And of course, what mummy can't resist a big bar of Chocolate once their child/ren are in bed? It was Easter afterall....
