Neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt/T-Ball/Easter Sunday

On the Saturday before Easter, March 22nd, our neighborhood had an Easter Egg Hunt for all the kids. I'm not kidding when I say that there were at least 50 kids up there! It was a lot of fun but very quick. I think most kids just got one egg and some didn't even get that many. There were some tears. I suspect they will try to have more eggs next year. :) Jackson had a good time and enjoyed the donut and orange juice that was offered. Mimi came along to document the activity while Papa went with Anthony & Harrison to his last Basketball game of the season. We then all met up for Harrison's T-Ball Practice.



Here are all my boys on Easter Sunday. Sadly, I didn't get to take a picture with them this year. I was on the Worship Team and had to leave for church at 6:30am. Needless to say, they weren't up and ready AND it was dark outside! ;) Mimi & Papa ended up having to leave that morning because the flights looked so bad for later in the afternoon so the boys dropped them off at the airport before church. We had a wonderful Turkey dinner in the crock-pot waiting for us when we got home and it was a wonderful Easter spent together as a family. However, next year, a family photo will certainly be on the list!!! :)

Egg Painting

The boys enjoyed coloring their eggs this year. It was fun having Mimi & Papa with us during these activities! I had gotten two different coloring kits...one was glitter and the other like a crackle look. I'll stick to the regular coloring with wax pen next time. They were OK but we had a lot of trouble with the crackle technique and actually busted a couple of eggs while pushing too hard. That was sad. :) It was still fun. Love these times with my boys!
