Easter Activites

Warning--- lots-o-photos ahead!! :)

Last weekend we dyed Easter Eggs. The kit the kids picked out was a Tie Dye kit and the eggs turned out really cool!

They really got into coloring their eggs this year.
Finished Eggs! And the flower pots are little pots I picked up at the Dollar Spot in Target a few weeks ago that they painted and put flowers in.


Friday night we traveled to Mt. Ayr to spend Easter weekend with my parents and sister and her family. Mom was just as excited as the kids and gave them their Easter baskets Friday night!

Running down the hall to get their baskets.

Digging in!


The big hit were the pointers that Mom bought at a book sale at school when she was subbing last week. The kids loved them and played school with them all weekend. And used them for other things also!


You can pick your friends. You can pick your nose. But you can't pick your friends nose......or maybe you can!!! :)


With Nana and Papa on Friday night.

Being silly!


Saturday was the Annual Easter Egg Hunt on the courthouse lawn. Here's Porter busy finding some treats.

Stella and Haydn were in the same age group this year.


After the Egg Hunt


With the hot mama's! The dad's didn't come down until Saturday afternoon.

Saturday night mom and dad had some friends over and it happened to be Rosie's (Steve's) 60th birthday! The 4 kids worked hard that afternoon and made him each a special birthday card.


Steve with the girls. Porter was not in the mood for a photo at this time!!


Wes not being very nice to his wonderful sister-in-law!!! LOL! :) I thought he'd fallen asleep in mom and dad's room with Haydn, but he wasn't sleeping when I snapped this photo!


Just had to add this b/c it was funny! I think Sara must of taken this. I was taking to Ron Beymer on the phone, I had to call him and ask him if he remembered when Andee lost her contact when we were in St. Louis then found it the following day. Britt---you remember that don't you????


The 3 Amigos


After church this morning, the Easter bunny found Nana and Papa's house. I love this photo b/c Haydn has her arms LOADED with eggs! Too cute.


And I just love this photo of Hannah for some reason, she looks so pretty and grown up!




Porter all smile after the Easter bunny's visit!I wanted a photo of the kiddos all dressed up in their Easter duds......Stella was having one of her *many* drama moments (!!!!!!!!) so she was not in this photo! She's 6 going on 16 that is fo' realz!



She finally calmed down 10 minutes later and wanted her picture taken!
