The Easter Bunny Came

Another Easter has come and gone... We were able to get together at my mom's house this year with cousins and have a easter egg hunt. It was so fun!!! April, Laura, and I brought a dozen eggs and a different dye for them. Each of the kids spent precious, but a fun time dying their eggs. We had sparkle eggs, and marble eggs, and tin foil shinny eggs. It was so cute to see them all put serious thought into what the current egg should look like. Cute Grace and Kendra just wanted to do PINK eggs and then they wanted out...I guess it's more fun to NOT have to have a parent help. So they lost interest fast. But put good effort into it :). Then when all the eggs were dyed the "Easter Bunny" hid all the eggs and a few other goodies like gum, fruit snacks, chocolate, candy filled eggs, and capri-sun's. YUMMY!!! The kids had to watch a movie while waiting to go outside... I love how they waited :) "we can see the tv from here" they said...he he he. I love it! Then we all headed outside for the fun. To make it fair we told the kids they had to only look for eggs with their certain shape...Kendra had eggs with sun's on them and Trisha had eggs with stick figure people on them... ran out of shape ideas :) After a while Kendra got the hang of it. She couldn't understand why she had to leave some eggs behind when they were right there?! Trisha just liked the "put the egg in the basket" thing. Great hand coordination! All in all it was a fun day! Thanks Grandma and Grandpa Hale!
Yes my baby is starting to stand all by herself! She's to little...
Here are there Easter dresses. They were so beautiful!
