EASTER 2011!

YES... I am behind, but this is my blog, so my posts can be a month or two late! :) 

We had our traditional Easter Egg Hunt at my parents house! I think the kids really seemed to enjoy it! We had 4 new people at the egg hunt (well, technically 5 if you count Aunt Alice!) But we had Evan, Ashlyn, Kyli (Matt's honey) and Gracie their baby! It was a lot of fun! Chris and I are the only ones without kids, so we were the only ones to hide the eggs. A few weeks before we filled the eggs with candies. We had over 100 eggs to hide for 9 kids! :) 

 Here is Caleb (in the orange) and Hiett (in the black and red) Hiett was showing Caleb where the eggs were. 

 My favorite hiding spot that Gracie found! 

 All the bystanders, Alice, Mom, Jennie, and JD! 

 Poppy (my dad) helping Kaylin find some eggs! 

 Evan didn't get to get any eggs but he was fine just to be outside! Next year, he will go out and do TONS better! :) 

 Dad, Kyli, Matt, and Gracie on the hunt! 

 I have an identical picture to this one last year! Me taking a picture while he does a video! :) 

 Madelyn had a "special" egg hunting dress! 

 Abandoned Easter basket! (Caleb's)

 Hiett found a LOT of eggs! 

 Who needs egg hunting when you can play in the sandbox??? 

 A) We did not plan to match B) Ignore the weird smile on my face, it was kinda windy! 

 Sandbox fun! 

 CHEESE!

 Kaylin swinging all by herself! 

 These next ones are fun! Chris is going to be a great uncle someday to these kids! They just adore him! 

 See what I mean... check out Chris' dorky but OH SO CUTE face! :) 

 Again... awesomeness! 

 "Just trust me! I'll catch you!"

 "Teeter totter, bread and water. Wash your face in dirty water!" 

See, I told you the swing set was a HUGE hit!  

 Swinging girls! 

We had fun this year! Everyone stayed for a good part of the day and the kids just played around with each other! I love the time we get to spend with one another and when we are all together! It's just the best time!
