Joslyn's Birthday Party!

Today was Joslyn's 3rd birthday. She celebrated her special day by having all of her friends & family over to her house for a birthday party & Easter Egg Hunt. We had a wonderful time there. There was a very special surprise at the Egg Hunt, though. A six foot tall Easter Bunny arrived. How great!

To our surprise, Josiah couldn't get enough of him while the other children were hiding behind their parents! Here he is, ever so happy, beside the Easter Bunny!

Then, it was time. The time all of the children had been waiting for. The Easter baskets were provided for & handed out to each child & the bunny said, "Go!"

Remembering how the hunting went last year, he ran around & got as many eggs as he could in record time. I think he was more interested in there being prizes inside the eggs than he was the eggs. He picked every egg up & shook it first. If he heard something, he put it in his basket. If there was no sound, he threw it back down to the ground for someone else to pick up. How funny! How do they figure this out at 3?

After the big hunt, we sang to sweet Joslyn. Josiah loved singing to his good friend. He was trying to get as close to her as he could. Then, we feasted on cake & ice cream, followed by a time for opening presents.

These two really do love each other. You can tell in the way they are hugging & smiling. How sweet!

Happy Birthday Joslyn! We love you!!
