Easter 2014

Lots of family pictures this Easter with my side of the family. The boys were so patient, or we may have just bribed them with jelly beans and m&ms. 

In addition to jelly beans and m&ms, I put dinosaur tattoos and little rubber dinosaurs in the Easter eggs. This is Cason's best T-Rex impression.

Uncles are useful for nabbing hard-to-reach eggs.

Uncle Joey, being the youngest of the family himself, was bound and determined to help Colt get his own Easter egg. Colt was not so determined nor his grib strong enough.

A little grass with his jelly beans never deterred Cason . . . nor Uncle Matt for that matter.

And Daddy's beard was grown for pulling. Happy Easter 2014!

Prairie Creek Easter Egg Hunt 2014

There's off! 

Danny was helping friends move, so my parents and I enjoyed an Easter egg hunt at my parents' church again this year. 

Last year was the boys' first Easter egg hunt and we had to encourage and prod them along in order to fill their baskets. And colt was just the size of an egg inside me. 

Cannon had no problem hunting eggs. Cason picked up one egg, realized it had candy and was content to stop there and eat the candy. Colt, well he was just along for the ride.

My sweet boys . . . in their little thrown-together Easter outfits. I don't think they could be any cuter. I think Danny and I were more excited about the little Easter egg hunt at Nana & Papa's house than they were. I stuffed 30 eggs with yogurt-covered raisins, jelly beans and m&ms in high hopes that they wouldn't notice me snitching candy from their baskets. How many more years do I have before they realize I'm mooching off of them? 

Right after taking that sweet photo above, this happened: we'll call it Danny's Easter Egg Hunt Lecture Instructions. Poor Cannon. Only two years old and already checked out during Daddy's sermons. 

And then the fun commenced.

Once again, Cason was perfectly happy finding two Easter eggs and shaking them until he made jelly bean/m&m mush.

We had Legacy Lawns, Inc. to thank for the amazing green carpet for our Easter egg hunt.

First Easter Egg Hunt

We took the boys on their first Easter egg hunt this year at Prairie Creek Baptist Church. Cannon was a little overwhelmed by the crowds and Cason didn't understand that finding more than one egg was the goal, but we all enjoyed the chocolate and sugar at the end.

Happy Easter Hugs!

Mommy was craving donuts and kolaches for an Easter morning breakfast. I'm convinced that my pregnancy cravings have just morphed into nursing cravings. Anyone else out there ready to confirm that I'm not crazy? 

Guess who was a fan of the donut holes? 

We spent Easter Sunday eating, reading, cuddling, watching baseball and playing with Uncle Joey.
