Easter - 2012

We attended a Community Easter Egg Hunt in White Settlement.  The community put together a wall climbing area, Easter Bunny Pictures, Petting Zoo, and 100,000 eggs within each of the four baseball fields.  YES, there was more than enough eggs for everyone.  Plus they had this event so organized that there were two ball fields per each age group hunting every 30 minutes.


Easter was exciting this year since Dylan is walking.  Actually he is running now, but it was neat to see him observe the eggs and decide if he wanted to eat the eggs or put it in his basket.

There really wasn't much of a hunt for Ethan.  He just picked up the eggs that were lighter than others.  I think he was secretly hoping there was dollar bills, stickers or tattoos.  And out of ALL the eggs both boys took home only ONE tattoo.  Notice his attire.  Yep, he wants to dress himself.  It's been really hard for me to let go but he is definitely defining himself.

Notice the basket above and the basket below.  There were so many eggs that I went ahead and let him pick up more eggs to take home.  Now, I didn't think about all the candy that was being brought home...but it's been thrown away.  Except for the smarties which are Ethan's Favs!

We spent the Easter Weekend in Amarillo with my family.  The trips always seem so short but I loved being around my family.  When we left Fort Worth and checked the forecast, I thought it would be safe to bring shorts and short sleeves in April...to Amarillo.  Nope, early Saturday morning you could hear the wind hitting up against the windows.  Luckily for us we borrowed clothes to stay warm.  The boys ran so much that they didn't even notice the cold breeze.

And Miss Bailee got her Bday present early.  We aren't able to make her actual Birthday Party so she was really bummed.  So I thought that I could cheer her up and let her see her present early.  She LOVED her three story doll house and Monster High Dolls.  I told her if she didn't like the doll house, I'd take it back home because my boys also enjoyed the doll house.


She also lost a tooth that day.  She had lots of fun surprises this weekend.  Thanks to her dad for allowing us to have her for the weekend...since it was his weekend.
