We had such a fun time with Juliet this year! She was really into hunting eggs. We practiced on Saturday morning in the house, so Sunday afternoon she was ready to roll! Really, she is so adorable!! Juliet wore a bonnet, a true southern tradition. Deda (my mama) made the bonnet for Leigh when she was two! I've worn it and now Juliet is too. She also wore my pearl necklace that I have from my Aunt Deda. Her outfit was very special! Easter dinner was at Leigh's and as always, it was beautiful and delicious! We had the traditional fare. It was sooooooo good! Deda, Granddaddy and my cousin Rachel joined us to celebrate Easter. I'll let the pictures to the rest of the talking...

Even at age 1, Juliet is already such a little lady. I love that about her! You all looked so cute on Easter, and Leigh's table setting was lovely! The monogrammed eggs were a sweet touch.
I must know...what did the adults hunt for? Candy eggs or money eggs?
Beautiful is all I can say.
Juliet looks like she had a blast! I love looking at pics of her-she's so cute!
believe it or not, the thrill of the hunt is enough for the big kids. the eggs were empty!
Hil - these are absolutely precious! And then Leigh and Rachel - how funny! You are so blessed with a precious family (one and all) - your folks and grandfolks did a wonderful job! Love to you all! and...we're trying to keep a check on F & W - they're some of my favorites! M
Hilary, I just re-discovered your blog! LOVE the pics of Juliet in the bonnet - you'll have to let me paint her portrait one day in that outfit!
I had fun spending some time catching up with your life via your blog! michelle
What a Southern princess! I love the Easter getup! You and Justin look wonderful as well, what a special family! Love you!
