The HUNT!

It's fun to watch the kids hunt for Easter eggs, although from the looks of it, some were not that hard to find. The kids had fun and were wild and crazy at the hopes of a sugar-filled evening. McKinley, although new at this type of adventure, had fun carrying around the eggs, she didn't want to put them in the basket with everybody's. She found 'em and she was keeping 'em!

It may look like a lot but it's just because the coloring books and felt coloring pages wouldn't fit in the buckets!


Hey these things rattle!
his hands just can't hold all of the eggs at once!


Come on McKinley...put it in the bowl with the others.
Faster, faster!
Oh My Goodness, Run before it all disappears!
Here's a few of McKinley, she loved it, despite the pink nose. It was quite chilly and windy!




Here's my cheesy girl! What a face. There's not a lot of Carter because he wouldn't stop to let me take his picture!
Hidden everywhere!
Up high!

The Golden Egg!...it held tickets to the zoo!
Colors and eggs galore!
what can you say with this picture? hmmm, it's Carters FAVORITE thing!
sorting out their haul!

All in all it was a fun Easter. The kids enjoyed it and really that's what makes it all worth while for me. My enjoyment is seeing their faces lit up with excitement. I love holidays, especially one's with food and chocolate! The funny thing is that when it was Madison, there was a lot less eggs and candy, but what's funny is that the Easter candy would last till at least Halloween. Madison is just not a candy, sweets kind of girl. Now that Carter's around and knows what's going on this candy will last maybe a month, MAYBE 2, if we hide it and are lucky. He can sniff out candy, I swear! We joke that he'll ride his bike out in to the road and he won't hear us screaming to get out of the road. But he can be downstairs and you can open a candy wrapper 2 flights up, with the bedroom door shut, locked in the dark recesses of your closet and he is there instantaneously! However McKinley is right in the middle, not obsessed over candy like her brother but she does have a weakness, which is Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, she absolutely LUVS them!

I hope you all had a wonderful Easter, until the next post.......
