Easter Eggs Everywhere

Saturday was awesome! Not really Easter weather but it was fun. Our ward does a neighborhood Easter Egg hunt at the park. I think it was the fastest hunt ever. We ran out got eggs, said goodbye and jumped in the car to get warm. Grandma even did an extra drive around the block so we could stay in the nice warm car a little longer.












After we got home we went back outside and enjoyed the rain a little more. Okay so maybe the kids enjoyed the rain more than me but it looked like fun.



Splashing in the rivers, oh, I mean gutters.









Playing with the flowers.







"Look Mom, it's raining flowers."

(Totally her idea. I thought that was pretty creative)


And the all time kids classic, Ring Around the Big Tree.




Then Sunday just ended up being a beautiful day. The weather was a picture perfect Easter. The kids woke up early, earlier than normal for 8:30 church, and found their new church clothes that the Easter Bunny brought along with a note telling them that he would be back after church with the baskets.



DJ wasn't cooperating so here's a picture of him. Apparently pulling weeds is better than getting your picture taken.


Sure enough when we got home there were the baskets from the Easter Bunny. Isabel got her first bike. She was so excited.




Grandma, Grandpa, Aunt Kristine and Jordan came over for lunch then we went out to Uncle Heath's for homemade ice cream and another Easter Egg hunt. They have the best backyard so it was the perfect place to do it.







Counting all the eggs to make sure we got them all. Oops, I guess one is still out there somewhere. Luckily, it wasn't one of the real eggs.

Then came the bubbles.



It was such a fun two days.

Whew that was a lot of pictures. It took forever but, I hope it was worth it. Now I'm just hoping blogger doesn't lose my post when I publish it. (Please post . . .please post. . .please post.) I really didn't know one post could handle that many pics. I guess that concludes my picture packed post. Did I picture you out? Well sorry if I did but, I hope you had as great of a weekend as we did.

Happy Easter!!
