The Greenport Egg Roll 2016

After a weekend full of friends, family and tons of fun, I'm happy for this rainy day. There is no school to rush to, no egg hunts to attend, no meals to prep, and no tablescapes to design. Today is about wearing sweatpants, taking naps, playing with Easter toys and eating leftovers. Time to recoup and reminisce about what a great weekend we just had. I think I'll take a few days to reflect and share pictures from all of the festivities, starting with our epic egg hunt in Greenport. We woke up Saturday and took a scenic drive up the North Fork until almost the end of the Island. The vineyards and farms were beginning their spring clean up and the country road was open and desolate.  When we reached the old fishing town we checked into the egg hunt, in front the carousel, on the water. They gave each little a wristband for free carousel rides and Easter cookies and sent us across the street to the Blue Duck Bakery for treats and hot chocolate. There was a man playing his guitar and singing on the porch and it echoed through the small town. Roo and the Felon filled their baskets with eggs while the Bae Bae was happy with her one egg find, per usual. We took a ride on the carousel and then opened our eggs on the lawn while watching the tug boats head out to sea. Afterwards, we took a quick stroll to my favorite Mom and Pop shop down the street and peeked inside the old kindergarten schoolhouse from 1818.  We then grabbed some paninis, on homemade bread, from the Blue Duck Bakery to thank them for making all the littles so happy and headed home for naps.
