Easter Fun!

Happy Easter!

All dressed up and ready for church.

Our kids love the neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt. Here they are Saturday morning all set to go.

Emma was very slow because she would find an egg, pause, and then look at us with a big smile. We were all yelling for her to GO, but she continued this little routine each time. It did make for lots of cute pictures.

Hunter got to hunt for eggs in a more woodsy area of the park. When they said go, he darted off for the trees and came back with a full basket of eggs and a giant smile.

He had so many eggs that he decided to give some away to a few of his friends.

Here Linsey is all lined up and ready to run.

She didn't do so bad either.

Of course we always have to get a picture with the Easter Bunny.

The kids came home with a pretty big stash of candy. They divided it up and since none of them like nuts or peanut butter, they ended up with quite a pile of unwanted goods like Snickers and Butterfingers (really, can you believe our luck). They cleverly decided to make and easter egg hunt for dad in his office. Jared found a note instructing him where to start and played along great. He said it was actually quite fun, I guess it's been a few years since he got to do something like that.

The kids were still left with plenty of candy and really started off with pretty even amounts. This is what was left by the end of the day. As you can see, Linsey is our saver, Hunter made a pretty good dent in his stash, and Emma wasted no time at all eating EVERYTHING but a few measly jelly beans. After so much sugar, I was really wishing I hadn't bothered buying any candy for Easter.

Here are a few pictures taken Easter morning.

...waiting to see the easter baskets... come on dad!

Happy Easter!
