Easter Sunday

Jeff thinks the kids are going to get Easter & Christmas confused.  They made out like bandits!!!  I think Easter is a great "excuse" to get our winter birthday kids some things for spring & summer!  {Or just an "excuse" to get our kids things!  Like I need one ;) }  Plus I'd rather get them some gifts & things that will last longer than the Easter Egg of Jelly Beans they each devoured for "breakfast!"

Easter Baskets at home Easter morning

Jelly Beans for Breakfast!

She thought it was a vacuum!

Golfing with Jelly Beans!!

Ready to head to Great Grandma & Grandpa's!

Easter Lunch picnic in the pasture!

ATTEMPT to get a picture of the great-grandkids.  *FAIL*

Daddy & Livi playing in the pasture.

Ready to hunt eggs!

There were 400 candy filled eggs up there!

They had a blast climbing the hills & we all made all the way to the top! (thought there was a lot of carrying involved!)

Chowing down on our loot!  They have never eaten so much sugar in their lives as they have the past week!

Analeigh soaking up some sun.

Livi got to ride a horse, er, I mean a dog!

And a 4 wheeler!!

And a golf cart!  Hayden road the golf cart too.  Logan was anti-riding things.

She got her first Barbies from the Easter Bunny. 

Doll & clothes from Grandma GG.

And the boys got some awesome car storage/tracks.  Thanks Pinterest inspiration!

We also attempted some cousin pictures before heading out to the pasture!  Hayden was not a fan of the idea.  Good thing we had smarties on hand to bribe him!

Lee Lee wanted smarties too!

After all that fun I did find a tick on Logan Tuesday night.  I was snuggling with him after work & thought "man your ear hole looks dark."  I looked a little closer & screamed!  A tick latched on IN his ear!  I hate, hate, hate ticks.  I know, there are worse things, but they give me the shivers!  I held him, daddy plucked it out.  Found another one in our kitchen Wednesday... guess we brought a few extra "gifts" home from the pasture.  Doing daily tick checks for a while I guess...

Hope you all had a fantastic Easter!!

Flowers & Eggs

Getting burnt out on house projects... ugh.  Taking a few moments to hang with the kiddos instead.

Box lid... or wagon for her babies?  She is such a girl!

 Ironic that she often has 3 babies?

 Boys playing some major choo-choos!

 Planting flowers.  Ok, so this IS a house project.  They still had a BLAST "helping."

Analeigh & Molly came to go on the Easter Egg Hunt at my job.  Our first hunt of the year!

 I only wish the boys always got along like this!

Found one!!!

"Candy in air!!!!"  {in there}

Cheating!

See a pattern here?

Beautiful!!

And a little time at the playground after

Their Loot!

April Fools?

So I think its April Fools.  I know the 1st has come & gone, but this weather is a joke!  I keep reminding myself we are not out of the clear for snow yet this year.  But, honestly Jeff & I both have sunburns!!

Temps have been the 80s!  So in between house projects, the kids & I have been getting outside for some fun!!  We have to keep reminding ourselves is not June!!

 Washing his cars.  Oh Logan....

 He is mastering his "I'm mad at you for telling me no" face. 

 Playing in the sprinkler in April.... loving it!

 Ice cream cones!

 All this playing outside & sunscreen leads to lots of these.  In our pretty new tub!

 Isn't she lovely?
