Sunny Sunday


For as long as I can remember, since I've lived in Vancouver, I can't ever recall a more glorious Easter Sunday!  It was like a summer day today, absolutely beautiful!

Sydney decided that she wanted pancakes for breakfast this morning but before she would get busy helping me mix the batter, she insisted that both she and her baby wear their matching aprons.  She propped her babe up on the counter to watch her and set about merrily mixing, singing all the while.  Every day should start this well...



We wasted no time in heading down to Granville Island so that Sydney could feed the birds.  She had been dying to use up a bag of birdseed that we had sitting around and she happily dumped the contents out so that the birds could feast!


One of Sydney's favourite dinners is the Sunrise Raviolini from Duso's Pasta on Granville Island.  These baby sized raviolis come in three colours, orange, red and white.  Sydney, of course, loves the red and one of the guys who works there now recognizes us and will pick out literally all of the red ones they have specially for Syd.  It's very sweet!


We had a little lunch at the island then headed up to see Paul's Mom.  The street she lives on is lined with the most beautiful Magnolia trees which are in perfect, full bloom right now.  They are amazing, huge blooms, I literally had to jump out of the car to take pictures to capture them, as I know their beauty is fleeting.




Late this afternoon Sydney cracked out the cupcake liners and decorations that Auntie Liane gave her and we decided to whip up a batch of cupcakes.



They turned out so cute, we boxed a bunch up and delivered them to a few friends' houses for dessert tonight.



It has been such a fantastic weekend together.  We have another week of Spring Break ahead of us and some fun things planned over the next few days so be sure to check back and see what we've been up to!
