.:Happy 1st Birthday Hallie:.

In celebration of Hallie's First Birthday, I thought it would be appropriate to post some beautiful pictures of her

One of my favorite photographers, Michele Reyes had a special promotion on her blog.

It was for the next day and was first come first serve so I was quick and got it!

The timing was perfect because I had a bunch of new outfits for Easter and also it was perfect for her 1 year pictures.

I am always beyond happy with Michele's work and I think she is so amazing.

I really adore this little girl so much

We had a great day, and I think she had a lot of fun on her birthday! We had a fun lunch date and a family party earlier tonight. I am exhausted and I am sure Hallie was too but it was a great day!

I will post pictures from her party soon.

.: A Few Random Things:.

Playing at our favorite park

Hallie in the swings

Bryn & Kinley on our walk to see the horses, eating Gogurts

Coleman, The Gap Mannequin (apparently their new friend), Bryn & Lucie

Have I mentioned before her obsession with mannequins?

Trying on Daddy's shirts is her new favorite thing

This picture cracks me up. This is how Bryn eats a Reeses.

One day we went up to the Fashion Place Mall. The Easter Bunny was there and Bryn would just stand and wave at him over and over. It was so cute. Then we found these bunny ears at Gap. Too funny!

.:Easter Egg Hunt:.

The Saturday before Easter my parents had their annual Easter Egg Hunt.

It is always a good time!

Hallie was pretty content with just 2 eggs

On the hunt

Here is Hallie getting up on her knees. She is finally crawling!

We also celebrated Kenzie's 14th Birthday!

I guess you could say she has a slight obsession with Justin Bieber

Just a couple of pics as we were getting ready to go

And proof of Hallie's obsession with opening and closing doors

.:Spring Break & Easter Treats:.

We had a fun "Spring Break" whatever that means.

We didn't plan a trip or have anything exciting planned.

We did however play in the sunshine, enjoyed taking naps, and building forts.

Jeff and my Dad both had to speak in church that weekend. Jeff did an amazing job, and I was sad that we couldn't make it to hear my dad speak. I heard he did a great job as well.

Hallie is almost crawling, not even close to walking. I am okay with that. I know she will be running around soon enough so I am enjoying it while it lasts.

She can still get where she wants to go. (Finding crumbs to munch on under the table)

We made some yummy rice crispy treats and I loved the different colors! We just stuffed them in plastic eggs (using cooking spray because they are so sticky!) I thought they turned out pretty cute!

I also made some bird nests using chow mein noodles, butterscotch chips and chocolate chips and Cadbury Mini Eggs. They were delish!
