EASTER

Noah

Liam

Rowan

Elliot

We went to St. George for Easter again this year- which was good since Colin put in new sod in the backyard and the kids aren't allowed to go on it.. It is a tight fit with 2 extra families in that house and 3 days later, I still have not caught up on sleep. I fared better on the couch than I did on a blow-up with Colin (ever sleep on a trampoline? You know how everyone ends up in the middle) but on the couch I got to wake up with Every Kid- not just my own... But the kids had a great time and we learned a fun new dice game that Colin is AMAZINGLY lucky at... 

The Egg hunt in the rain at the park in Ivins, UT on Saturday..
Liam was going nuts before the hunt started, saying "Ba, Ba, Ba!!" (Ball) and he collected them in the hood of his sweatshirt.. Not sure why we didn't bring him a basket- Noah was a champion Egg hunter at his age so I should have known better..

Ellie was a blur and filled her trick or treat bucket

Rowan preferred the Slower route of showing us every time she picked up an egg.. Have I ever mentioned that she is our Non-competitor...


The Easter Bunny left a note and Eggs for Noah and Haley that had them hide the eggs for the little kids and when they were done there would be a Surprise for them... When the kids were done looking for their eggs in the backyard- Eggs showed up all over the FRONT yard for Noah and Haley... Killed a lot of time, and was great entertainment... Jerry remarked, "Well, now we know it only takes 1 person for a successful Egg hunt..." Since Noah had just as much fun "finding" the ones HE HID for Liam, who was asleep..
