Easter

We spent Easter with Zak's family in Utah. Zak and I had arrived at 2:30 a.m. (after spending the entire previous day moving our entire apartment into storage and scrubbing every nook and cranny in our apartment in preparation for check-out). I was so exhausted that I slept until noon on Easter Sunday completely missing church. I was disappointed about missing church but Zak made sure to bring Belen in to see me before leaving so that I could see her in her Easter dress! I was pretty amazed at how grown up she looks in it!

We took these pictures after church, Belen had decided long before to take the pretty barrettes out of her hair, the stinker.

Above: Here is the dress with the jacket that came with it.

Below: Belen's Easter dress. She LOVED playing with the skirt.

Zak said Belen twirled for 20 minutes in the aisle during Sacrament Meeting. Here is just 5 seconds worth.

Just plain 2 year old cuteness! There is a special message for her Grandma's and Grandpa's!

Immediately after I stopped filming this video, Belen blew her grandparents a kiss...

With all the graduation and moving craziness, Belen and I never did get to color eggs and I was too afraid that I would eat all the candy if I bought any so Zak bought Belen a new little Dr. Seuss book and a plastic dinosaur (which she LOVES), Mimi (my mom, that's what Belen calls her) got her a cute little easter bag filled with a soft little chick and bunny, an easter bunny book, and an egg filled with candy. Zak's parents bought Belen's entire easter outfit and made sure she had plenty of candy to munch on in the days following Easter.
