Our Easter morning started with the kids waking up to find their colored Easter eggs in the hallway, down the steps and all over the main floor in the house. They loved finding all the eggs and wanted MORE! Ryan got mad that they didn't have candy in them too! :) It is funny that they will walk right by their baskets and not even care about them. They are only worried about the eggs. Then they did go back to their baskets....no surprise there.
<- Pretty eggs!!Hailey wanted to pose for a picture for EVERY ITEM in her basket!! She would sit there, hold the item up next to her, smile and wait for me to take a picture!! :) Ryan's best moment came when he found "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" DVD in his basket. He starting THROWING things out of his basket...until he could finally get the movie out. Then he had to point and tell us which picture was of the girl that was a "bad nut"! It was funny!!!
I did let them eat one piece of chocolate before we went to church. Ryan wanted Chris' cadbury creme egg ('ohhh there is FROSTING in here!!') and Hailey started on her chocolate bunny!
Okay...hold on....here come the pictures of the cutest kids in the world (to me anyway!!). How BEAUTIFUL does Hailey look!?!? And, Ryan, well he is just ADORABLE!!! :) Gotta love 'em! :)
Hailey had to lay out her whole outfit on Saturday morning! She had it all planned out...but couldn't decide on which purse to use! :) She loved twirling in her dress and wearing her new white shoes too! Such a little GIRL!
Ryan, on the other hand, is ALL BOY! I wasn't sure if he would wear the tie...but he did! He said he was just like Papa Buckhouse!! :) And he loved that his pants matched Chris' too! So HANDSOME!!!
And one of all of us using the self-timer on the camera. :)
And, a few of the kids together too :)
After all the pictures we finally got to go to church!! After church, there is ANOTHER egg hunt outside. It is separated by ages and they always do a great job with it!! Hailey and Ryan BOTH filled their buckets! More candy and toys!!
You would think it would be over, but not yet!! When the kids got home they found out that the Easter bunny left them NEW BIKES in the front yard!! Ryan was so excited to get his first bike...and a "motorcycle" too! (he told me today that he wishes his bike didn't have petals...but was a real motorcycle. dream on little boy!!)
Back inside for MORE Easter baskets. Thanks to Tim for the confetti filled eggs!! Oh, and the kids were FIGHTING over the recorder too! :) Ryan went right for it! :) Hailey's favorite out of these was her Hannah Montana pink glitter lipstick (as you can tell in the picture below). Ryan was also happy to finally have his own copy of the "Elf" movie so we can watch it at home now too!! (he was quoting the movie in the bathroom during church and didn't know he was getting the movie from Grandma and Grandpa after church!!)
Finally we were able to have our lunch!! Clay, Marjie, Brian, Catherine, Doug & Doran were all over. And, a friend I scrapbook with (Jill) and her children (Camille and Jantzen) came over as well. It was great to have some kids for Hailey & Ryan to play with!! After a big, yummy lunch, we had one last egg hunt in the backyard. Between Doran and myself we had TONS of eggs!! All 4 kids had fun getting them (even little 1 year old Jantzen!).
What a fun day...but everyone was exhausted when it was all over! And I am exhausted from this post!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
I have to include one last thing...a video of the kids!!
