Easter Fun

Well I am a little behind on events, the last weekend did me in with all that went on. It took me a while to get my house back to normal. After we celebrated Paige's birthday, the next day we got together with the majority of my mom's family. She comes from a family of 10 and all but 2 siblings were there with most of their kids. So it was like a mini family reunion. We had a great time together and the weather was okay, it wasn't raining which was great. All of the little kids had an Easter egg hunt and got a ton of candy. Some of the eggs had a number on them and that numbered egg was good for a different prize. Parker picked out a Nerf gun and Paige got a cute stuffed pink bunny. She was even able to pick up a few eggs on her own and put them in her basket. She was so fun to have participate in the hunt this year. After we spent the day with my mom's family, we came back to our house and dyed eggs with my sister and mom. The kids really had fun with this. Parker did 1 dozen eggs!! 6 of them yellow. He was funny, he would pick an egg up and put it in the dye for a minute or two then take it out and put another one in the same color. He wasn't very interested in trying a new color unless one of us told him to. He was done with all of his eggs before the rest of us had done 2 or 3. After we finished dying them, the kids insisted on hiding them outside and having another egg hunt. So we hid 18 eggs and let the boys go and find them. It only took about 15 minutes for them to be found and they said let's do it again. So we had 2 more egg hunts and then called it a day. I think they would have done it 5 or 6 more times if we had let them. It was a great day full of fun and family. We love to get together and spend time with one another!!!
