Easter

Easter was a bit weird this year. We have been so consumed with getting everything in place to move we pretty much were not prepared. Luckily everything still turned out awesome! We had a lot of fun and a lot of parties! Plus Blake was so excited about the Easter bunny!
 I definitely forgot about dying Easter eggs so we did it Friday night :) Just plain lame die but it worked!
 Blake LOVED it! He is just like me and chance, when we are focused we stick our tongue out!
 See his tongue??
 Some of the finished products. We ate them Easter morning and of course Blake wouldnt eat them.
 Gross no makeup but oh well
 Saturday morning we went to Chances families Easter party, then our condos Easter party and then our to chances other familes Easter party. It was so busy and so much fun!
 My brother came to the first party. They look so cute!
 Marelle and Blake checking out their Easter eggs
 I had to help Blake because all he wanted to do was open them and eat what was in them. If it werent for me he would have only gotten a few eggs. Dont worry i ahd his back. He scored!
 Look at that face.................she was going in for the kill
 Ha so Reilly
 She is too excited. She thought she hit the jackpot


 Opening all the eggs, of course Blake wasnt going to look at the camera

 All the cute kiddos after the hunt
 Me and my two lovies
 Grandma Becky and the kids

Grandma Becky with all the kids. No need to smile i guess
 The last party of the day. Blake looked burnt and tired!
 At the last party we did a huge scavenger hunt. It was so fun. They got all sorts of toys and fun things. The downside is we pretty much had to do a hike and i was in a dress and sandals
 The EAster bunny left lots of riddles and goodies
 This was the start of the scavenger hunt. So adorable they did such a good job
 Funny boys. They are my favorite boys

 The treasure box at the end was so cute! They actually buried it and the kids had to dig it out
 Washing all the dirtiness off at the end of the day. They had to get all clean for the Easter bunny to come

 Their Easter baskets! I have decided to do what my mom did and not do actual Easter baskets. My mom always did a them and it was always stuff the we actually needed and not just a ton of candy. Its such a perfect idea. How cute did this turn out?!
 Yea Bailee was definitely excited                                       Blake was overwhelmed! HAHA

 Yea they were both going so crazy i could get a picture without any movement
We found out kind of last minute that Chances family wasnt doing anything for Easter so we made a last minute dinner. Turkey, mashed potatoes, broccoli and chips and guac. We had fun

We were so crazy and had so much to do that we didnt really get to talk to Blake about the meaning of Easter. So we will do that for family home evening. It was so great having my brother and sister here. They made it is that much better
