Can you tell Carter was excited we bought blueberries? 

Apparently not – even if it's not very fancy.  This was our best attempt (yes, Emma playing with her gum and wearing rainboots under the dress.)  And this wasn't even Easter… Emma was the only one who wore her "Easter clothes" during conference (sans the boots).  But we won't have a year without an Easter…
