An Easter to Remember


I hope you all had a lovely day with with family, friends and beautiful weather!

Since our Easter baskets were still filled with goodies we used decorative bags to collect our eggs...


Mommy finds some good hiding places this year!


















But alas the kids are clever and fast! And they want the hunt to last longer... so instead of hiding the eggs all in the back we moved to the front of the house... and so the hunt would last a little longer instead of picking up any hidden egg, the children were assigned colors. Alexander had the pink and orange eggs, Rebecca had the purple and blue eggs and Christopher would look for all the yellow and green eggs. What a genius idea! Each child was responsible for gathering 13 eggs. We'll have color-coded Easter egg hunts from here on in!




It was so glorious out that I decided that the boys did not need to wear their navy blazers and let the kids break out the flip flops! After all this weather is unusual for us. We are usually bundled up, even in snow gear on Easter. This weather is to remain the next few days. It is so wonderful!


Um, I don't think my Easter pictures of Christmas card worthy!



My daughter is such a poseur!!




But she is pretty darned cute and his proclaimed this her favoritest Lilly dress -- Ever!!


We had stopped off at nursery to pick up some flowers and Rebecca, listening to her iTunes, is clearly annoyed with me... for something, though I am not sure what!




Grandma's Easter Bunny brought lots of outdoor goodies and how nice it was that the kids could go out and play!







and my sister in gave me this beautiful rhododendron "tree"!
