Easter 2013

Our only attempt at a family Easter picture was a huge FAIL!  I didn't realize my shirt was hanging down so far and they are all blurry.  This was the first year that we didn't go to my Grandparents and just went to Christian's family Easter.

Easter 2013- Easter Baskets

I was so excited about doing Easter baskets this year.  I tried my best not to buy a bunch of crap they didn't need that would end up in the garbage.  I tried to buy them both something for their room, a random little toy, some candy then they had a basket together.  I felt like I did a pretty good job (my Husband might beg to differ).  You can see last years baskets here.

Harrison got a new dinosaur for his room.  We are going to have a dinosaur theme is his room.  His random toy was a Dora whistle.  He is still obsessed with Dora.  Both boys also got new toothbrushes and toothpaste in their baskets.

Lincoln got a new piggy bank that looks like a fuel gauge.  I thought it was really cool looking and will go with the car theme in his room.  His small toy was a few little cars.

The boys basket together had new play doh tools, a Dora book that projects images on the wall, a bubble machine, Boots the monkey and some candy.  I had also ordered Backpack and the Explorer Pack for Dora/Diego but they didn't arrive in time to put it in their basket.

Harrison spotted the Dora eggs first thing.  I am telling you this little boy has a mad crush on Dora.

Lincoln went for the candy.

We discovered H-Man loves him some Peeps.

Easter 2013- Wildwood Community Center

Every year the Wildwood Community Center has an Easter party.  Christian's Mom and Aunts are usually in charge of it and it always turns out great.  It is nice to finally has children that enjoy it.  You can see our pictures from last year here.

Both of the boys had fun dying Easter eggs.  I am glad they did it here since we never had a chance to do it at home.

After all the eggs were dyed it was time to hunt eggs.  Lincoln and Harrison were the only kids in the under 3 category.  They enjoyed it for about 3 seconds.  Once they saw the swings it was all over.

I was so excited to finally meet this little beauty, Brynn.  Brynn is the daughter of one of my very good friends , Kelly.

Overall the Easter party was a huge success.  My kids ate way too much candy and junk food and loved every second of it.  Mommy and Daddy might have had a little too much too.

Easter 2012

Once we were finished opening Easter baskets we got ready to head to my grandparent's house.  It was a little past Lincoln's nap time so he fell asleep on the way up the mountain.  As soon as we got him in out of the car and tried to lay him down he woke up.  We figured we would just go with it since it was a holiday.  They grilled fish and burgers so I brought a pizza for me and Lincoln.  We enjoyed getting to see our family from Atlanta.

Pawpaw took the little boys for a bike ride.

Lincoln had a blast after the ride and didn't want to get out.

Lincoln did much better hunting eggs this time.  Dex and I would point and he would go get the egg and put it in his basket.

Look at that excitement!

The plastic eggs usually have money in them.  Lincoln loved the ones with changed and wanted to break them open.  He didn't care anything about the ones with dollar bills.

One of the scariest moments happened after the egg hunt.  I was at the top counting all of Lincoln's eggs to see how many were missing.  I thought Uncle Dex had Lincoln but he wasn't paying attention.  Lincoln started to reach for his hand and fell half was down my grandparent's brick steps.  Lincoln was screaming at the top of his lungs.  I grabbed him and ran inside.  Christian and Harrison was taking a nap inside and he ran in the living room to see what was wrong.  A huge knot had already poped up on his forehead and the side of his face was scraped up.  He was pitiful.  Once I got his almost calmed down I asked him if he wanted to take a bath.  Anything to do with water is like a cure all for him.  He of course said "ess" (yes) so we headed to the bathroom.  After taking a quick bath he was much better.  He was still a little upset but better than he was 15 minutes before that.  He was also exhausted and wanted to go to sleep.  Of course we couldnt' let him sleep for at least an hour so that made matters a little worse for him.

My sweet Harrison always ready with a smile.

I guess we should have taken the family picture earlier. We will always remember Lincoln's accident (like I could ever forget).  Hope everyone had a Happy Easter.

Easter 2012- Easter Baskets

Once everyone woke up Sunday morning I got the boys Easter baskets ready while they were eating.  The Easter bunny tried not to go too crazy this year since we are about to move and already have way too much stuff.  I got each of the boys a couple of outfits, a book, socks and a few random toys.

Harrison was so excited about his Easter basket.  As soon as I put it down beside him he started looking and grabbing things out of it.

Harrison looked so precious in his bunny ears.

Harrison's Easter basket

The first thing Lincoln grabbed out of his basket was a drawing pad.  That boy loves to draw!

Our course he had to get a gigantic pencil too :)

I guess Harrison thought his socks were food.
