easter 2012

Easter morning I got the kids ready for church and let them find their baskets before we left. Addison knew they were hidden somewhere in the house. So cute watching them going around to look for them.
Kaden was obviously excited about his 'find.'
Payton was a bit jealous...check out her face. :) So...we were on a hunt to find hers.

She found it alright and immediately went to work checkin' out the goodies.

Then Addison went on the hunt for hers and scouted it out pretty fast.

I pretty much just love spoiling them and buying them things. :) I think it is more fun for me than it is them. :)


After the basket hunting and church, we headed to Mom and Dad's for the day. It was a beautiful day...warm and 'sunshiny.'
A pic of some sisters...Dan and Nat.
Here we are gearing up for another egg hunt...all on the front porch!
Dan and me!
Uncle Stephen TOOK OFF with Kaden to fill his bag with eggs. What a sweet guy to help him out. Kaden just adores him...and they have so many of the same mannerisms.
Ashley walked around with little Pay-Pay.
Addison was quite the champ filling her bag on her own. ;)
sweet :)
One of the really hard ones to find for Pay Pay. Ha!


Showing Daddy their goodies!
She was so proud.
Good job Kaden!
My wonderful Aunt Tracy brought THIS for prizes for the kids. She wins everything...and I'm really not kidding. She is one of the luckiest people! She bought a raffle to win this a few weeks before Easter and, of course, she won! It was so fun for the kiddos.

Mom was helping pass out all the items and helped decide who got what.
Since this was just Pay-Pay's 'size' this is what she got to bring home. I'm pretty sure she was happy about it.
And thought it was comfy too!
And...once the wagon was empty,....
they got a little ride.
Nat and Ash and a friend, Becca.
Some corn hole action for the day.
Dylan and Austin
Volley Ball time for some.
And....to top it off, we had a big fire as the sun went down. Kaden and Trenton helped gather some sticks.
Kaden just loved throwing them into the fire.
Stephen helped with the big logs.


It was a great day. We left for home with some sleepy kiddos. Thankful for a day to celebrate our Risen King with family and friends. :)
