Easter this year was so much fun! All of the kids at mom and dad's were big enough to hunt eggs AND it didn't rain! Yay!
This is such a super terrible picture -- but it's about par for the course these days. Mom's hair a frightful mess, dad's eyes half closed, Lincoln being the hulk, and Liam just plain showing off. It's just how it is folks. Nothing but real life here... :/ Regardless, it's the only pic we took as a family that day, so there ya go.
MimMim and Pap with the guys. I'm not sure what's up with Liam here?
Before the big egg hunt, the guys got to decorate a few eggs. Pretty fun stuff!
Cousin love. These guys LOVE Annalee. They both want her attention at all times!
And even though dad has... antlers?? here, everyone is actually looking and smiling. Its my favorite family pic!
And at this point, the children are like, "why aren't we hunting eggs yet?"
And here we go!! All three of them actually understood what they were doing this time. Annalee is still young enough to want to inspect all the insides of the eggs before moving on, but it didn't matter -- my Mom (God love her) loaded up 100+ eggs.... Yeah, she never overdoes anything really....
Liam needed a little help balancing the basket while raking in the stash.
And Lincoln took every pink egg he found and put it in Annalee's basket. You know, since they are "girl" eggs and all.
So excited!
A little love in the middle of the hunt.
Another perfect photo! Liam in mid-candy chew and Annalee so excited she can't contain herself!
Meanwhile, at home, we spent our days practicing the art of egg hunting, and creating our own decorated eggs! The guys LOVED making their own eggs - and it actually wasn't as disastrous as I imagined it being.
They both dyed and decorated monster eggs.
Liam got pretty bored after the eyeballs were stuck on, but Lincoln stuck with it and ended up with some pretty awesome monsters!
On Easter morning, the boys followed a trail of eggs that the Easter bunny had left down into the basement, where they found their baskets and gifts. A new sandbox for the backyard was the hit!
On our way to Ninny and Papoo Jonas' for Easter dinner!
It had rained some that day, so we had an indoor hunt instead. Baby Braxton is still a little too small to hunt eggs, but he had a good time watching!
Digging through the loot. Mentos!!!
Ninny and Papoo Jonas with the egg-heads.
A little more cousin love!
And I'm not so sure why these last two pictures are out of order, but if anyone uses blogger, you know what a debacle it is to try to move them around. So here they stay. Hope everyone had a happy Easter!
