Easter 2010

We are pretty excited for the beach this summer. We had a little taste over Easter, about which I am just now getting around to posting. Mary Grace braved the 60 degree ocean water for about half an hour until the wind started blowing a little too hard and we had to retreat to the car.

Easter was a lot of fun this year. We drove down to Charleston to celebrate with Meemaw and Peepaw. On Easter morning, Mary Grace had to follow a little trail of chicks down the stairs to her Easter basket. She quickly consumed her weight in Peeps.
