Farm Fun, Baptism, & Easter

This year, we spent Easter weekend on the farm in KY with Matt's mom and family. Paige had an especially great time playing on the farm and checking out all the animals. The newborn lambs were a really big hit. She had lots of fun chasing after them; here she is getting a closer look with Pop.

Before we knew it, it was Sunday morning and time for church!
Since moving to DC, we have yet to find a church that we feel at home at. So, while we were in KY, Collin was baptised in Matt's mom's church: The First Presbyterian Church of Millersburg. Here he is getting ready for his big day! He wore the same christening gown that both Matt and Paige wore.




We asked our dear friends, Meredith & Aaron West, to be Collin's Godparents and were so excited that they could join us in KY.


After church, we returned to the farm for lunch and an Easter egg hunt. Paige's cousins: Megan, Brianna, & Lindsey were there too. It was a little cold out, but that didn't stop them from having a great time. The highlight of the hunt though was when Paige found a real robin egg. Unfortunately, she thought it was a chocolate egg and went to try and lick it. Thank goodness Meredith was there to swat it out of her hand. In the process it broke and yolk went everywhere with the wind. I wish we had a picture of Meredith's face, it was priceless!
