Easter Fun





We had my parents and siblings (that live in the area) down for dinner. Bryan made a pork loin and red potatoes, my mom brought a relish tray and a salad and Jill brought bags and bags of chips. Dinner was yummy and I didn't do anything for it, which made it even better for me- oh, I helped with the cake. Jill even did the dishes when we were done with dinner- she really is my favorite.

After dinner we had an Easter Egg Hunt for the boys. They had a great time and we had a great time watching them get excited with each egg.

We even hid a "special egg" for Matt. Ryan had to show Matt how he got the egg up in the tree.
Matt got it!

You boys have matchy-matchy shirts. :)
It hurts my feelings that Jill is your favorite. I want to be a favorite! I will do your dishes for a week!

Cute! Looks like Little A is getting tall. We did so many egg hunts this year because the kids LOVED it so much!

I love how excited they get about each egg and that they have to open them immediately.
That egg you hid in the tree looks pretty tough to get. Good thing I didn't have to climb the tree.

Thanks for you comment on my post. I was afraid that was the answer. It just stinks when you don't want to repaint but want clean walls. That's all I am asking for...clean walls. I didn't think that was too much to ask for! :(

Hunting for Easter Eggs is fun. As long as you find them all. Easter baskets are more fun. I got soup in mine.

Oh please! You do know that Em sooooo will not do dishes for a week! A day? Yeah, probably for a day, but a week? Well, I don't know, that fav thing is a powerful motivator! I love your blog!!
