We had an early Easter celebration with my high school girlfriends a few days before Easter. Complete with an Easter egg hunt!
The kiddos watching TV while Mommies hide eggs
Kodi, Alivia, Jack & Aaden ready to look for eggs!
Sissy was pretty into it because Cynthia had been practicing with her
She knew exactly what to do
My sweet boy on the hunt for his green eggs!
(all the kids had their own color eggs to look for to keep it fair)
All the kids
Cheeseball Aaden
We ended the day watching Frozen
The night before Easter we dyed eggs. Aaden was really into this year and Addison was too but she wasn't too gentle. We were worried about her spilling over the dye cups so I filled a bowl with yellow dye for her.
We had a couple cracked eggs after Addison man-handled them
Love this!
They're so pretty, I must touch them!
But she's so cute!
Aaden's awesome monster eggs!
Proud boy!
Cute video of them -
The Easter Bunny came!
Sissy Monster
I love the expression on her face in this picture
Bubby
Loving Easter so far!
Addison - haha!
The Easter Bunny left this note on Aaden's basket...
And here's the video...
(Needless to say, Aaden was a little disappointed)
After our morning at home, Aaron left to catch his plane to Korea!
The kids and I packed up to go to Mom's.
We did the hats & bonnets again this year since Gam missed Easter last year and didn't get to wear hers
Loved her outfit!
Pretty Ellie
This little sand table was a hit!

After the Easter egg hunting, these boys decided to run through the sprinklers
Stella joined in too
Addison...did not.
This picture of Aaden cracks me up
They were having a blast! Nothing like running through the sprinklers in your chonies
Love this kid!
Stella was a little unsure about the sprinklers after all
Braving the water again
Addison was happy to stand on the sideline and watch
Caroline, Willow and Aunt Renee

Murph - right in the middle of all the festivities!
Heads Up
You just know Aunt Kerry thought the game was stupid until she
thought she could win. Not competitive at all. ;)
Such a fun, fun Easter. We were all so happy that Gam could be there with us this year! We missed Aaron though as he was off on his Korean vacation.
