"I want it to still be Easter"


I have heard this everyday since Easter...5 days ago!

We had an action-packed Easter, just the way we like it. Each year I am so excited to see how much more involved the kids get in the holiday's. It really gets more and more fun each year. Makenna and Camden grasp the concept of Santa and the Easter bunny, and they have that excited-can't-sleep-when-can-we-get-up attitude and I love it!

The Easter Bunny brought Camden a ball, mitt, and glove. He was so excited! I need to get a video of this, he has a killer pitch!!


Makenna's favorite gift was a Hannah Montana microphone. She runs around the house singing, "You get the beeeesst of both worlds..."


I think the Easter bunny may have underestimated these two. Because of the wet weather, he hid the eggs in the house and the kids were finding hiding places that were even better than he did! Of course we had been practicing all week!
Laney did find one egg and the kids were so excited for her to put it her basket. She, however, wanted to put it in Makenna's basket.


Then it was off to Nana and Papa's (my parents). Logan and Daymon were over. During the hunt Camden went to bed complaining of a tummyache, so it was just Mak, Logan, Daymon and Delaney. Each kid had one egg with their name on it with extra money in it!



Logan and his basket.
When Camden got up,he got his own Easter egg hunt. Of course he complained about the sun and I didn't want to search for his sunglasses so he wore mine.

After naps we went to Nana and Poppy's (Christian's parents). I always forget to take pictures over there, but the kids searched for eggs and we all had to find our Easter basket. We all had plenty of great treats! Makenna and Camden each got a blanket and they convinced Nana, Poppy, Aunt Amy, Uncle Ross, Daddy, Mommy, Delaney and the 2 dogs to all "take a nap" on the floor of the guest room. That's right, to humor the kids 6 adults, 3 kids and 2 dogs layed down to sleep. Wish I had gotten a picture, but the memory will stay!
