Hippity Hoppity

We headed to MA over the weekend to celebrate Easter with my parents, my sister (Wes had to work) and Hannah and Haydn. Friday night the Steve, Nancy, Tiny and Ruth came over for dinner and drinks. It was a fun evening. We had not been to MA since the week before Christmas, so it was good to see everyone again! Saturday afternoon we headed to Diagonal to help Grandpa Jay, our longtime childhood neighbor, celebrate his 90th birthday. It was such a fun celebration and so great to see all the Austins and Snyders!
Here is Rosey playing with the girls. They love him!! They all ended up wearing their matching pajamas while we were in MA and it wasn't even planned! They thought that was pretty cool.
Dad giving Nance a hard time! :)
Saturday morning we headed to the courthouse lawn for the annual Easter Egg Hunt. It is always fun and we run into a lot of people we normally wouldn't see. Dad and the older girls, ready to hunt for eggs.
Porter :)
Mom, Stella, Porter, Haydn, Hannah and Dad. Stella is not saluting, just trying to block the sun from her eyes! It was a beautiful day out, last year they hunted for eggs in their winter coats, hats and mittens!!
Mom's Easter tradition of decorating the bunny cake with the shorties. They were very proud of how it turned out!
Tearing into the Easter baskets from Papa and Nana.

Stella and Nana playing with a toy that was in her basket. Whoo hoo! The Easter bunny even left stuff for the big kids, too! (Excuse the no make-up face!)
Such a show off!! Balancing a glass on my head!!!!! :)

The Easter bunny left eggs at the house while we were at church this morning! Time to hunt for more treats!

They all clean up pretty good!
