Easter Weekend

We had such a busy Easter weekend this year. It started with our late night at the drive in on Friday, yard work, playing and the park on Saturday afternoon and then glow in the dark easter egg hunting on Saturday night. Every year we ask the kids if they want to do an egg hunt and every year it is a resounding yes!! We try and do some extreme version of the game to make it a little more exciting and this year we tried glow in the dark eggs. I bought some glow in the dark paint and Lucas and I painted letters on the eggs so everyone would know which egg was there's. This took quite a bit of time and unfortunately, the glow disappeared quickly after I put them in the yard....but hey, that made it a little more extreme!

Here they are. Ready to hunt!

We have a huge yard. It took forever and was great!

Can you see the eggs in this photo?

It's hard to take good pics when it's DARK!

This one was running everywhere so it was hard to catch him...in the DARK!

Eli is GREAT at this game!

We had a relaxing Sunday too. The kids didn't even wake us up early for their baskets! They were still sitting on the table when we got up while the kids played downstairs. Don't get me wrong, they had already checked out their goodies but they had enough manners to wait till we were up to go through them. :) After a relaxing morning we headed to Lawrence to meet Grandma and Uncle Billy for Easter lunch. It was soo good to see my mom! We hadn't seen her in a few months and she looked great. She was still in pain but was as spunky as ever! After lunch we spent some time at Weston State park before we took Autumn to youth group and the kids played catch. It was such a beautiful day!

We really enjoyed our Easter lunch with Grandma and Uncle Billy. Miss her so much!

Here we are at Weston State Park.

Look at that form!

Look at that face! I am not sure what inspired that...

This kid has quite a throw. It hurts to catch!

And nice catch!

We did some artsy shots...

I think maybe Autumn is made of sunshine. :)

I had to show you this one....after Noah was done playing catch he came and squeezed in between me and Sis on our blanket. Obviously, this guy is secure in his manhood....otherwise he wouldn't be wearing sparkly sunglasses, right? :)

As you can see, we had a great Easter weekend together. Love my family! :)
