Easter Sunday

We went to Papa and Nana's church and house for Easter this year. The kids did two egg hunts, because we knew the weather was going to get wild. And, it did - crazy winds and rain. But, thankfully, they still got to do some hunting for eggs.

JD enjoyed walking with J when the weather was a little calmer.

We attempted the impossible - a family picture. Two year olds simply have a mind of their own. But I thought the kids looked great all dressed up.


Spring Break


There were really only two days during the last week that were rain free. We all had cabin fever, for sure. So, on Thursday, when it appeared to be safe, we ventured out to the park. A rode the truck and JD rode his rock and roll. It's strange for me to watch them ride their "bikes" to the park - they looked SO self-sufficient. Weird.

A and JD are looking very professional in our kitchen, now that they have their very own chef aprons and hats. On this particular day we made lemon scones. They love to help in the kitchen!

Enjoy the videos!

Preparing for Easter


A and JD enjoyed dying eggs. We attempted to color designs on the eggs, although that didn't seem to show up as well as I thought it would. They didn't mind, though, since this was our first egg dying attempt. I'm glad we put the newspaper down - a mess was made (of course).

Pictures 2 and 4 are from a few weeks ago, when they put stickers on the plastic eggs. They thoroughly enjoyed that, because they love stickers.

Picture 3 started off our Easter preparations. Mom sent an Easter tree in the mail, and the kids had a great time decorating the tree while I made dinner.
