Easter {2013}

It's impossible to get the boys to sit and take pictures... but Cameron sure can make them laugh. I'll take what I can get. 

Church Egg Hunt {2013}

The boys had a blast at the church's egg hunt. What's not to love??? Collecting egg filled with chocolate then donuts and milk afterwards. I got lots and lots of blurry shots of them running around collecting eggs. Well, as many as could trying to slowly waddle after them. Sitting down photos were my friend this year. Love these little bunnies of mine. 

Neighborhood Egg Hunt {2013}

With Suzanne and Lisa getting ready to move, things were a bit crazy on the street. We decided to move our annual hunt to the park this year and it was so, so fun. Parks are my best friend. Shedding a little tear that our fourth annual hunt is going to be our last year with the usual crew together.... it's been a fun ride.  

Nothing was cuter than watching the toddlers eye the cupcakes. Should have gotten a pic when we said, "eat one" and they all smashed their faces into one.

Waiting while the eggs were the eggs were getting hidden....

Who's ready to find some eggs???? And the hunt begins....

The Easter Bunny {2012}

Weston came running into our room Easter morning... hysterical. Through his sobs I hear, "No bunny come to my house, it's gone, nothing's there!!" Apparently he had woken up, ran to the kitchen, and saw nothing.  Not a thing... the bunny hopped over our house this year. It might have been one of the sweetest and funniest moments ever. That tricky bunny... he wanted the boys to hunt for their stuff. I showed him the note the bunny left and he got on board, kind of. 

He was definitely confused but he got into the groove once he figured out he was looking for eggs. Surprisingly, he was able to figure out most of the clues on his own. 

He eventually got led to his bunny loot.... the bunny forgot baskets this year and left a sensory bin full of toys and treats. They were in heaven.

Easter {2012}

Getting ready for church is always a feat. Then trying to add in taking a pictures.... it seems impossible just thinking about it now. The boys looked super darling and they sat down long enough to snap a few pictures.  

Church Egg Hunt {2012}

Weston was mega obsessed with his bunny ears this year. Every hunt or egg activity these babies were on. Our ward hosts a fun egg hunt each year and Weston had a blast. 

Holden was there... but he literally would not leave his blanket. Cameron checked the weather and it was going to be 70 degrees so all the boys in the fam wore shorts and tee's. Let's just say my boys were the only one in shorts while everyone else was in pants and coats. Ha! Reminder for next year.... the hunt starts at 8 am and it's 50 degrees at 8 am.

No outing is complete without an injury.... Weston ate it climbing up the slide and got a huge ol' welt on the side of his head. Nothing a little chocolate couldn't fix.

Egg Dying {2012}

Weston loved dying eggs this year. Alone. He literally would not let Cameron or I touch the eggs, the dyes, or anything involving the whole process. I wanted to try some color blocking but all I heard was, "No, I do it. " So we all hung out and watched Weston dye eggs. Ahhh, the egg memories. 

Neighborhood Egg Hunt {2012}

It's nuts to think how long we've lived in the neighborhood. Four years. I think it's the longest I've lived anywhere in the past 10 years. I started getting all sentimental when I was looking back at our past neighborhood egg hunts {first, second}. Each year we've kind of dwindled in numbers as Weston and I formed closer friends. I guess living away from family you really and truly hope you find close friends to fill the family-less void. It makes me so grateful to have met friends that I would call my family. I hold these memories close because they've been some of the best. 

We're missing Ava, Conner, and Ronan but the boys were ready to roll. 

{Weston, Brayden, and Evan}

This picture is what I lovingly refer to as "this is what happens when you're the second child." Suzanne and I were so busy running around with the other boys that we didn't even know they were crying. Michelle's mom clued us in that our crying babies were being ignored. Poor babies.... but it really might be the greatest picture ever. 

It really was a bad combo of wanting to be held and then being placed on the grass. Holden HATES the grass.

The kiddos after the goods had been found. Love how Weston is trying to grab his egg back that Lucas had just stolen out of his basket.

{Brayden, Weston, Evan, Holden, and Lucas}

We painted, decorated eggs with stickers, and then dyed eggs. All of which were huge messes but oh so fun. 

Bunny sandwiches {on white bread} and cupcakes made their yearly appearance. New to the scene this year were tamales from a hole in the wall shop down the street. They were a good find and they'll be back next year.

Holden tried pb&j for the first time. Not quite one years old but how can you deny a kid pb&j bunnies on white bread?? He was literally obsessed. 

Fun, fun day.

Weston's Preschool Egg Hunt

Weston's preschool threw the most adorable Spring Fling right before Easter. We're changing schools next school year and I'm going to miss all the fun activities they invite the parents to. His cute teacher sewed their headbands and liners for their baskets. Serious teacher dedication right there. I wish I took a picture of all the hidden eggs before the hunt started because there were hundreds. All the kid's baskets were overflowing... it was so fun! 

Weston has this thing for eggs. Not really sure how this developed at least a year ago.... but he's so excited when eggs are involved in cooking and he has a set of pretend eggs that he plays with every day. Needless to say, Easter is a rockin' holiday for this kid. 

We met Luke and his mom at Gymboree when our kiddos were about one. Now they go to school together so they're buds. We've got ourselves some serious little bunnies in this picture.
