{happy easter!!!!}

(SCROLL DOWN!  I added more Easter pictures to this post!!!)

Bryce informed me, that this is his "International Super Spy" face.

We managed to squeeze the boys into their suits from Steve's wedding, one more time.  At least, when Tanner turns 6 or 7, he'll be able to wear Bryce's suit.  And then we'll all say, "I remember when Bryce wore that suit!" and by then Bryce will be . . .well, gigantically old and big. (But I digress . . . .)

HAPPY EASTER!!!

Here are some of our Easter festivities. . .

first up, the Easter egg hunt and activities at church.  We had lunch, cotton candy, and the boys played games, hunted for eggs, and went in the bouncy houses.

Next up. . .decorating Easter eggs, and then opening Easter baskets!

(I don't know why B looks so concerned about his chocolate egg! He loves them, and he was excited about them! You just can't tell!)

and finally, one more egg hunt at the condo . . .

(sneaking jelly beans)

"I think I need more hands, Mommy!"

Whit and Bryce checking out their loot!

just me and little T, watching the big kids Easter egg hunting!

Easter/Spring Break recap

Spring Break is winding down . . .we had a fun and busy week! Here's the recap!

*We celebrated Nana's birthday on Easter, with lots of family in town - which means lots of yummy dinners at Nana and Gil's, wayyy too many desserts, and lots of cousins running around.
*The big cousins hosted a BIG Easter egg hunt for the little cousins (Nana might find eggs hidden in strange places throughout her house for months!) Bryce had a BLAST playing with his cousins and hunting for eggs.
*The Easter bunny came (he always visits our house the day BEFORE Easter, so that Daddy doesnt have to miss out on baskets, since he leaves so early for church.) The bunny even remembered Tanner, and left baskets at both boy's doorways.
*We went and painted pottery with some of our friends, and we are looking forward to picking up Bryce's rainbow colored mug next week after being fired.
*We spent lots of time outside, washed the car, had a bunch of squirt gun wars, went for walks, and did a little more planting in our garden. Our rose bush has grown TONS in the past few weeks, and I can't believe how many flowers are blooming!
*We went to the library, and got twelve books . . .dinosaurs, outer space, and volcanoes were some of the topics of choice!
*While Eric was home we did some reorganizing, closet cleaning, budgeting, and decluttering. (If you know me, you know the decluttering and reorganizing was one of my favorite things!!)
*Oh - and one of Bryce's highlights was probably the day we realized that the refrigerator/freezer wasn't working. . .we ate ice cream cones at 9 in the morning! (But yes, it's fixed now!!)

Big thanks to Nana for feeding us for so many meals this week! And to Meghan, Katie, and Michael who are SUCH wonderful big cousins to Bryce.

happy easter

Happy Easter!!!
