Easter 2016

We woke up the day before Easter to snow! Which made things extra cool because we could see the Easter Bunny tracks leading up to our house! The kids were so excited about that!

The kids woke up to a lot of fun things left by the Easter Bunny. He knew the kids had a special trip coming up because he left them a bunch of fun things for the long car ride and the trip. 

 They all got new hats for the beach!

 Caleb wasted no time on making a dent in his treats. Especially the peeps.

 Gwen joined Caleb in his early morning sugar fest.

 The Easter Bunny left an egg hunt for all the kids. They had fun finding all their eggs filled with goodies.

 It was a fun and happy morning!

They even got to harvest their jelly beans! Easter suckers grew where they planted their magic jelly beans. 

 Then Tessa got her suckers stuck in her hair.

Another favorite tradition we have around Easter, is planting jelly beans the night before the Easter Bunny comes. Something magical always happens to our jelly beans.

Easter 2016

Easter came so early this year. It didn't leave us with much time to do too many activities with everything else we had going on. Gwen and some of the kids Mommy babysits did some Easter crafts, but we saved our big stuff for our own kiddos and fun afternoons. 

One of our favorite holiday activities is decorating cookies. We had a fun time making Easter cookies this year. The kids did a great job and the cookies tasted as good as they looked!

 Our other big activity was coloring eggs. We tried something new this year and used food coloring, baking soda, and vinegar. We loved watching the paint sizzle as we poured the vinegar on the eggs. I think this will be a fun new tradition.

Saedree's Play

Before spring break, we went to see Saedree in her school play, The Little Mermaid Jr. Saedree played one of the mersisters. Gwen and Tessa love The Little Mermaid musical and it was fun to see Saedree perform in it. After the show, the girls kept asking to get their pictures taken with all their favorite characters. All these cute girls did such a great job!

Amelia Bedelia

Last Friday, Mommy, Adam, and Tessa got to have a fun evening out together at Children's Theater. We saw Amelia Bedelia and had such a fun time! The play was darling, we got some yummy treats at the Soda Fountain after the show, and we had a fun time just spending a few hours together.
