We spent Easter in Northern California with my family and had such a wonderful weekend! On Saturday we went to the annual Easter egg hunt at the Lang Twins Winery. William participated in his first Easter egg hunt and had so much fun. There were also bubbles, cookie decorating, bouncy balls, and an Easter bunny for all of the kids. William had a blast! For the adults there was wine tasting so Mommy and Daddy had fun too. :) Easter day held church, a wonderful meal with family, and a warm Central Valley Spring day. It was great to see our California family and I am already looking forward to our next visit. Here are some pics of our weekend. There are quite a few but, in total, I took about 300 pictures so I had to try and choose the highlights. Here is what I came up with. Enjoy!
The long drive down to California. William did great considering he was in his carseat for 8 plus hours. We watched lots of Elmo, sang lots of songs, and ate lots of "nacks." Here he is drinking his morning cup of coffee. We start them young at the Newtons. :) (Don't worry, the cup is empty. We don't really give our 2 year old caffeine. Think we're THAT crazy?)
Watching Papa clean the patio. I loved the high tops with PJ's look he had going.
My beautiful sister and Momma!
William LOVES his Grandma and I am pretty sure that the feeling is mutual!
Excited for his first Easter egg hunt.
Found one!!
On a mission.

William loved the Easter bunny and was not afraid of him at all!
Playing with the bubbles. This was one of his favorite activities. It was fun and interesting to watch him interact with the other kids. He is not the outgoing one in the group but instead likes to sit back and watch. He is content to play on his own and will play with others only after he feels comfortable. Once he is, he will walk up to each child and say "Hi!" He has a very sweet and sensitive disposition and and I just love him!

My family.
Love the Central Valley!
Playing with the "beeballs" (Easter eggs). For some reason he called them "beeballs" all weekend which usually means baseball or basketball.
Excited about what was inside.
We tried to spell out "2011" with eggs and take pictures with the kids by them. It was a nice thought but the reality of making this happen with kids under 5...maybe in a couple more years.

All the cousins eating dinner. Mac and cheese after a long day hits the spot.
