Happy Easter

We traveled to Ankeny to spend Easter with Matt's family.

Matt and I were so excited about the simplicity of our new travel route, only one non-stop flight...
that was delayed 3 hours.
Our dolly girl did a fabulous job of traveling, even with the delay thrown in.

We had the opportunity to spend some time with Grandma & Grandpa before Matt's sisters and their families came to join in on the fun.


Dad attempted to guide Lauren into enjoying her greens...


During our Christmas visit, Lauren was 12 weeks old, so it was so fun to watch her actually interact with her cousins, especially Hayden, who is just 7 months older.


Our Easter celebrations began on Saturday, when the Easter bunny made a stop at the McQuinn residence and an Easter Egg hunt followed.






We had another celebration on Saturday, my dear friend Heidi's bridal shower.

Lauren made a brief appearance and spent the rest of the afternoon with her dad.



We also spent some time with Uncle Scott during our visit!

Lauren adores him!

Our Easter celebration continued on Sunday with another visit from the Easter bunny!







We had a wonderful Easter!
{our first spent together in a couple of years}
& loved spending time with family & friends.

While it seems like there is never enough time during our trips,
it's good to know,
that our loved ones are just one non-stop plane ride away...

... even with a three hour delay,

that sounds lovely.
