HaPpY EaStEr!

We started off Easter weekend with an egg hunt at Hooper Park. It was fun, but there was a ton of people there so they didn't get much candy and it was over in about 30 seconds. Bry was a little emotional as you can tell by the picture.

They were REALLY excited about the Easter bunnies though. There was a BOY and a GIRL bunny and they thought that was really neat.

Then later that night we died our eggs.

Carter just wanted to munch on them, it was really cute! He got SO excited when he saw his Dad with one. He would try really hard to get it into his mouth.

Here is our set-up for the Easter bunny!

Easter morning! Brylee and Boston got battery powered 4-wheelers and Logan got new basketball shoes and some cash. Carter didn't get anything big (we're taking advantage of the one year he doesn't care if he gets anything or not)! He has so much stuff handed down from Bry and Boston anyway. Throughout the day they re hid their eggs, and had a lot of fun doing it.

What a cutie!

Later we went out and flew Bry and Logan's kite's it was fun. Boston even got a turn, he did better than I thought!

We just love this swing!

Boston got his first bee sting of the year ( a little early isn't it)? I guess it didn't help that he grabbed it off of a dandelion. Such a tough guy! Here he is showing you his mud.

Sunday afternoon we went over to my Mom's. They had a cute little Easter egg hunt planned. They all had their own little sections (very well planned)!

Some of the eggs had prize notes in them. So they would take it to Grandma and she would give them their prize! Boston, Brylee and Carter got books and Logan got a cool football and a Lego kit. Then we roasted hot dogs and brats in the fire pit. It was a lot of fun and much needed. Ben ended up having to work ALL weekend so it was nice for the break!

It also important to reflect on the real meaning of the holiday. The resurrection of Jesus Christ. It means so much to me that he sacrificed everything for us. I wish that I could be that unselfish. It is easy to forget the important things in life sometimes, but I'm working on it!
