We had a great Easter. We went to an Easter egg hunt planned by my sister at a park. My kids had a lot of fun. Kenzie wasn't feeling great, but perked up when she found out there was candy in the eggs she was looking for. We colored eggs the Saturday before Easter and Ashlee and I had our semi-annual baking day. On Easter we looked for the hard boiled eggs we colored and for our Easter baskets. After church we went to my parents' house for their Easter party. We had a yummy dinner and found money-filled eggs in their yard. It was a fun weekend!
Most of the kids that were at the egg hunt. Kenzie refused to be in the picture.
Ashlee helped Kenzie find some eggs on the table.
Their Easter baskets. Coleman's is first, then Kenzie's, Jack's, and Jordan's.
Coloring Easter Eggs:
The boys remembered right away that they needed to stir their eggs with the spoons to get them all covered. They had to show and tell Kenzie how to do it.
Kenzie chose pink. Shocking, I know.
The kids and me. Coleman slept through it all, so he's not in the picture.
Grandma Dance sent us a fun egg coloring kit. It had some fake tattoo like things that we could rub onto the eggs. Thanks Grandma! :)
Easter Mornnig:
They were trapped at the top of the stairs.
Jordan checking out his Easter surprises.
Jackson showing Coleman his.
Kenzie wished we would have let her keep sleeping.
She was not excited at all by anything that day. Not even candy. I didn't think she'd ever not be excited for candy.
Her Dora band-aids caused her the most excitement. She almost smiled. And she held them for a long time looking at them.
After looking through their baskets the boys finished finding the hidden eggs.
Coleman was excited that there were so many fun things to play with on the floor.
Jordan jumped on the jumpsmart to see if there were any up high.
The outside egg hunt at my parents' house:
This was the only time in the day Kenzie showed much happiness. The rest of the time she extra clingy and whiny..
Jack had a couple of the Noel boys (family friends) helping him so he got a lot of eggs.
Do you notice what everyone is wearing? On Easter? In April? In Washington? Shorts! It was so nice and warm and sunny. Usually Easter is cold and rainy so it was especially great to the outside egg hunt.
