The hunts have begun!

This past Saturday, our local grocery store, Village Market, held an Easter Egg Hunt for the kids. Jason's parents were visiting so Grandma and I took the girls. They put the kids at the end of aisles according to age and then announced when they could go. They could grab as many eggs as they could get. This year, both girls got a ticket in one of their eggs for a prize! Mace ended up with a basket with a stuff Easter Bunny, bubbles, and sidewalk chalk and Kels got a larger sized stuffed lamb, which she was thriled about because it was pink, her favorite color. They had NO interest in seeing the Easter Bunny, who was visiting the store, when the hunt was done :)



Here they all are at the end of the hunt.


Kels did pretty well filling her basket. At first she was only going for pink eggs so I had to keep telling her to get the other colors as well.


Before the hunt.



I had to throw this picture in. I was cooking dinner the other night and it seemed a bit too quiet. (last time I thought that was when Macey decided to cut Kelsey's hair, which I should actually blog about) When I went into the living room, I found them like this :)





Today for preschool, Elizabeth had an Easter party for us. We hunted for eggs, decorated cookies, listened to the Easter Story, hopped like bunnies, and colored eggs.


This was a tie dye kit and they actually turned out decent.





Licking just the pink frosting off her cookie. surprise surprise.



Found one!



Excited about hopping!



I love this picture because....


1. Macey's outfit that she picked out today.

and pink leggings, otherwise known as pj pants)


2. Annabelle checking out Macey's Snow White socks.



Bennett can hardly wait to find his eggs!





Delicious!

Oh, Jen - the picture of the two little snuggle bugs together in the living room just had to warm your heart (it did mine)! Sisterly love is so special!
