Easter and Rain

Easter Saturday

We had guests over for Easter weekend so life was a little crazy and I didn't get to write last week, but we had a great time. There was our city's eggstravaganza at a park that we met our friends at with huge bouncy houses, booths with games, food, and ending with an egg collection. All the eggs sit on the ground and they have a count down so the kids can run in and get them at the same time. It is nice they separate the ages so Daddy went with Claire and Shay while I stayed with Adrian. He wasn't very intersted until I literally picked him up and put him in front of the eggs! They were mostly filled with little easter toys that they of course wanted to open right there in the grass, but we convinced them to walk to the car. We had a lot of fun in the beautiful sun in the after noon and even brought our table outside so we could eat dinner in the nice weather. Time ran out to decorate eggs, I had everything prepped but the kids were having way too much fun. 

Easter Sunday

On Sunday morning, the kids came to get us up so they could go find the hidden eggs in our backyard, but adrian wasn't awake yet. I started making vaguely bunny shaped pancakes for breakfast until everyone woke up, and the kids showed off the things in their baskets. They filled their baskets with eggs while I finished cooking and we all enjoyed a fun morning together. The fun matching outfit I got for our family were white dresses for the girls with a bow that matches Daddy and Adrian's new ties! I have a dress that has similar colors and a hair sash to wear as well. Our guests had to leave eventually, and we were able to catch up on the General Conference we missed. The girls aren't good at watching quietly and listening, but they kept themselves busy with playing. I wonder when they will start be interested...

Spring

This past week has been very rainy which has been great for our yard! The rain ruined my plans to work out in the yard so we missed out on mowing and a front yard project only got started so now it's a mess from the rain. The girls had spring pictures at school on Thursday and decided to wear their pretty new white dresses which made me a little worried. They are really good at making their cloths messy and luckily I could use bleach to make it white again so we could wear it for church today. They also had Friday off of school and we got to visit the library and have a fun day together. Yesterday, we went to a charity clothing swap in the morning and had a fun play date with Shay's classmate during Adrian's nap time.
