Easter... A little late

Easter weekend was a fun and busy weekend. I had Friday and Saturday off work so we got to do some fun stuff. We colored eggs, had picnics, tried flying kites, did easter egg hunts, and had the Easter bunny visit! My grandparents invited me to come to the Bloomington Country Club egg hunt with my kids. At 8:30 a.m we got there and the kids got to see the Easter bunny! We all had a great time and got lots of candy!




We had a picnic in the back yard at my mom and dads house on Saturday afternoon. My dad and Josh cooked dutchoven potatoes and chicken. It was perfect weather for the kids to play in the sandbox and run around blowing bubbles.










The Easter bunny came to our house on Saturday so the kids would be able to play with their sand toys that day. They got watering cans so they can water our flowers that we just planted and they love them. The bubble gum machine, like always, was a big hit! 




We colored easter eggs at my mom and dads house this year. I didnt get to many good pictures because i was busy helping.... it is quite the messy activity for 2 year olds! Zaydee just used her hands to get the eggs in and out of the dye. 






On Friday we made easter cookies with Avery and Konner's friend Ryan. It is so funny to see how girls and boys are so different. Avery and Zaydee just spread the purple frosting on their cookies and the boys tried to put frosting on eachother, use their knives as swords, paint my berry garland with frosting and lick the frosting out of the bowls. They had a great time and the cookies were tasty too!






On Sunday we went over to my Grandma and Grandpa's house for dinner. As always it was amazing. She had the table set for royalty!  She made fried chicken and every thing else to go with it. We finished our dinner with some home made cinnamon twists. We had a little easter egg hunt in the back yard when we were done eating. The rest of the evening we just hung out at their house and told funny stories about eachother.

Every time Konner and Zaydee go to Grandma Joy and Grandpa Ralphs house they get chocolate milk. This is Zaydee sitting out side on the lounge chair drinking her chocolate milk with a spoon. haha I love her BIG brown eyes!


Konner and Emilee hanging out in the back yard! Emilee is so good with the kids and Konner loves to play with her. They ran around like this helping each other find easter eggs.
