Happy Easter

We woke up to finding our Easter Baskets and sneeking lots and lots of candy in before breakfast.

Being silly after church.



Today was also Grandma's birthday - Happy Birthday!!





Maddie looking for her Easter basket at grandma's house...with her hands in her pockets.







Jack holding his "boy cousin" Stephen for the first time. He couldn't believe how light he was and just trying to lift him higher. We had a fun day, lots of playing outside, Easter egg hunting, candy eating, etc. So much fun that Maddie is now sleeping naked on the floor in the living room.

2 new additions...

On Friday night we brought home two new additions to our family....here they are making their way out of the box and into their new home.

We've got two new gerbils....Woody & Buzz.



They crack us up.

Easter Eggs

This was the last time we did Easter eggs together!! 2009 = I don't remember why we skipped last year, but I think it's because grandma and grandpa got egg coloring duty...
We started the process on Sunday night - thrilling as you can see - turns out waiting for eggs to turn bright colors isn't exactly the most fun thing in the world.
But this year we got 3D coloring/stickers for out eggs - so we had to sport the glasses...

Tonight we finished up -

They're pretty crazy eggs - not traditional to say the least, but it was fun!

New pictures

We went to Sears today to have some new updated pictures done. Once we got into the studio we got a lot of cheesy smiles and for a long time no smiles at all, but here were some of our okay ones.

This was Maddie playing peek-a-boo - in some effort to get her to laugh or smile she just played peek a boo right back instead.




This one might be pretty sincere.



Ring around the rosie - but when we said Freeze - they stopped and looked at us instead of looking at the camera!
