Easter Morning

We were home this year for Easter Sunday. The past few years we have been in Hilton Head with my family. We always did small Easter baskets b/c we were traveling but this year I went all out!!! The boys loved it and they are still eating there candy, I am helping!! We had a wonderful Easter dinner at Chris's brothers Jeremy's house. Christie and Jeremy were great hosts and the food was wonderful!! Chris's parents, as well as the boys, have been begging to take the boys so after Easter the boys headed up north. I worked a ton last weekend and then Chris and I headed to KY to see Sara and Tommy. Libby and Ava had flown in to celebrate Jack's first Birthday. We all enjoyed Jack's birthday last Saturday and as always Sara outdid herself!! It was a wonderful party with great food and great friends. Thanks Sara and Tommy for a wonderful weekend and we'll see you in two weeks, and tell Ella this time we will bring Jack and Wade with us!!

Fredrick Meijer Gardens

Jack and Wade got to go back to the Fredrick Meijer Gardens!!! Wade was so excited to see the butterflies again!!! (btw, he is still carrying around the butterfly booklet!!) This time we went with Jack's class from school. It was a perfect day and got up to 75 degrees!! I had never been to the outdoor gardens and I now that we have been I think we are going to become members because there is endless fun!

Easter Egg Hunt

The weekend before Easter we got together with 4 other families and had an Easter egg hunt!! The kids had a blast!! We went to our friends out in Lowell so there was lots of room outside to hide eggs. The little kids stayed by the house and found the eggs hiding in the grass while the bigger kids went into the woods and had to dig through leaves to find their's! They'll probably be finding Easter eggs all summer!!

After dinner the kids dyed eggs. Wade thought it was great and loved taking his egg in and out of the dye. I am surprised his hands were not blue by the time we left.
