Easter Weekend

We had a very nice Easter weekend - lots going on!

On Thursday I brought the boys to meet the bunny - no screaming baby here!



Then Grady and I colored some eggs together - he had so much fun - I have never seen him enjoy it so much!






On Saturday morning Grady had a birthday party. It was for one of his best girlfriends. Anson and Eric came separately so that we could all be there but A could leave early for his second nap.
Grady loved the pony rides - he rode again and again!





I am a huge dork, but look how cute - A sat on one!



Anson loved the Minnie balloon







Cake!



Easter morning was fun. It was Anson's first Easter, so that was special. Anson was obviously completely clueless, but Grady was wildly excited!

Grady was SO excited about that butterfly/fishing net!



I love that little face so much



One gift was from me and Eric - it was Pinocchio, since it is the 70th anniversary this year



A loves the net too







He did like his bunny quite a bit, as well as his Laugh and Learn phone



Then it was time for the bunny's egg hunt - it ended up being 90, so thank goodness we were out there at like 8:30AM!









Before church - I am totally squinting, but the boys look cute. Grady has flowers because they were supposed to bring flowers from their own gardens to put on the special cross at church. He LOVED that and picked about 5 flowers for it. It was cute because the cross was up at the entrance to the school today too.



This time I did sort of plan to coordinate with them :)



Since it was so hot we played in the water after naps











Little surfer guy



They sure do have fun together!





We had our special meal for dinner, just because it was too busy early in the day. I just did a ham, potato salad, vegetable, biscuits, and Easter Rice Krispie Treats for dessert (I was supposed to make whoopie pies but ran out of energy). It was a great day!

Easter Fun

We have had quite a few Easter parties this year, and Grady has really been enjoying them all. It started with his school party, which I was in charge of. He loved that, of course. We did an egg hunt, I made some fun treats, and I read an Easter story that Grady loves. Then, this past weekend, we had a party after church, a party at a friend's house, and a neighborhood egg hunt. Good times! Here are some pictures. Unfortunately I have no pictures of the church party or friend party because my card was ont in my camera - oops!

Just call him "The Flash"

Notice the Rice Krispie eggs? Grady helped me make them!

Yes, I do match the boys - by mistake

G loved the neighborhood bunny







Just a couple additional cute ones from this week - G is on Spring Break, so we have been having lots of fun playtime!





Planting his seeds from church







We have been enjoying very nice weather and playing outside a lot. Easter weekend looks hot and sunny, so hopefully we can fit in some water fun too!
