Easter

For Easter this year, we decided to stay home instead of travel so we could do some more exploring in this area before moving away! Easter morning, my kids woke up, found their Easter goodies, and then had a grand ol' time with the Mustaches in Marshall's basket. Haha! They loved the other things the Easter Bunny brought but I think this little item takes the cake! Started our morning off with some pancake art by dad (T-rex and race cars, even I was impressed!), then took a gorgeous drive down to Pisgah Nat'l Forest to find a place called Max Patch that we'd heard of. After a long dirt road (thanks Apple Maps for taking us a horrible way), we found a trail that led up to the bald! I didn't get a picture of how many other people were up there but it was a big bald! About the length of a football feild! Lots of people were picnicing and throwing frisbees, etc. It was a fun place! And the view was unbeatable. Appalachia is really breathtaking!










These next two pictures were right after Marshall headbutted me in the mouth. I was spitting blood! It was terrible. Thought I wasn't bleeding anymore until I saw the family selfie. Still blood in my mouth. YIKES. Yes, it left a fun purple bruised lip for a week or so afterwards.
Love these cuties. Later that day, we drove home and gave the kids an Easter egg hunt around the house outside. They thought it was so fun but were both too distracted to smile for the picture. Ha! Then we headed over to some close friends' of ours to have Easter dinner with them. Thanks Kait and Greg for having us! So grateful for amazing friends who make us feel so welcome! We had a great time. Hope everyone had a wonderful day with family and friends on this special day!
