Easter 2011

I always like to hear what other people's Easter traditions are...

I always have all these grand plans I want to do with the kids for Easter and then somehow time flies by and I end up not doing them.

We always wait until the last minute or in this case the day before to color our Easter Eggs...but the kids really love doing this. In fact Sienna said to me probably about 6 times after we colored them. Mom that was just so much fun coloring those eggs today.

By the 6th time I started realizing maybe I need to do more crafts with her.

Some Love For Jackson...he is a nice brother helping her color her eggs....

Hard at work.....except for Hunter who did this while everyone else colored eggs....

Sorry for any of you who are seeing these pictures again from facebook...but I gotta get them in my "scrap book"

Okay so it was 9:00 and the whole house was still asleep. Except for me of course...and then Jackson who patiently waited on the stairs for everyone to wake up. He is my early riser. Always the first one awake.


Sienna was next...awwww so sweet those two....

Ok Ok .... this is what it's really like here.....



I love Sienna's squeals in pure excitement when she sees her basket....

Jackson's Basket

Coopers basket....

Hunter...seriously always way to cool to act happy or excited...has to be the last one to walk in...good thing I love him!

Yes that is a turtle...Conwey thought it would be funny to put it in Hunter's basket....Sienna thought we had a new pet....somehow that turtle was released back into the wild. (thanks Jill) ;)

New Earrings....

Conwey even got a basket from the Easter Bunny....

So these kids...they don't love finding the Easter Eggs...even Sienna! I walked around the house after they were done and found quite a few eggs they didn't get...and as you can see not the hardest hiding places.


They did take a bit to find their Golden Eggs...The Easter Bunny figured they needed to work pretty hard for that Egg that had 10 bucks in it.

The Easter Bunny also now does half candy eggs and half money eggs...the boys would shake the eggs and if they didn't hear money they would put it back...

Crazy Crazy kids...I loved the hunt of the eggs when I was little.

Sienna loved her Lalaloopsy Doll which if you ask me is a bit creepy with her button eyes...but then again Sienna loves anything and everything creepy. Her favorite show is Coraline....Creepy!! She's funny.

Ready for church...


We had Easter Dinner at our house this year...lots of fun but I of course forgot to take any pictures due to running around hosting.. but I did get some of the cousins who pretty much did this the whole day...gotta love it!

Happy Easter 2011!
