HOPPY EASTER

We have many Easter traditions in our family. We decorated eggs with Abby & her friend, Brynn. I wasn't brave enough to let Ally help, maybe next year. We also went to our annual Easter Egg Hunt at church, and yes it was outside, even with all the snow. The kids didn't seem to mind and they still found tons of eggs. We also took a trip to visit the Easter Bunny, I think Abby thinks its like visiting santa because she was sure to tell him what she wanted, even though he didn't ask. And then finally there is Easter morning, Abby loves to see where the Easter Bunny hides her basket, and she always checks the places he has hidden it in previous years. I don't know how she remembers. She also helps Ally find hers and then together they found all the eggs. The girls also got matching Easter dresses this year from Aunt Julie (THANK YOU!!!!). They looked so adorable, Ally knew she looked cute and she was all about posing for the camera, which is very rare for her. We had a great Easter, hope everyone else did too.


Abby had an Easter party at school, they painted their faces and made bunny ears.

This is Abby out looking for eggs, as you can tell we didn't dress her for the weather.

Here is Ally, notice she has no eggs!

(don't worry a nice older child from church took her basket and got her some eggs)



Ally didn't really want to see the Easter Bunny, so we all had to be in the picture (thanks JoDell!!)



They had some cute bunnies, chicks and ducks for the kids to see while we waited for the Easter Bunny.

Pretty in Pink!!!!

FLOWERS FOR MOMMY

The other day Abby went out sledding with Gabe, the little boy that I watch, and after taking the wagon down the sledding hill, I am not quite sure how safe that was, she brought me in these flowers. Aren't they beautiful? I am not sure how she even found these with all the snow, but she was very proud of them. Oh and about the wagon down the hill thing, they told me it wasn't a good idea because it took too long to pull it back up. Go figure.
