Easter Weekend

This year Easter weekend was a very busy one!! Saturday morning we took Alana to her last day at her preschool where she's been enjoying getting to know the preschool and the kids. They had an Easter egg hunt with their name on the eggs. She loved looking for her name and I thought it was a great learning expierence for her! Surprisingly enough she was ok with taking a picture with the Easter bunny they had there... even though it was a very different looking one, I think she wasn't scared because it didn't have a big stuffed head like the crazy mall one's do.


Then she took a moment to sit and check out her eggs and the fun stuff that was in them! She sat and ate the peep first... which is really weird because she has yet to finish one peep, she doesn't really like them.... which is the weirdest part to me!!

Saturday afternoon after nap time the families from both sides came to color eggs with us!


It was a production!

Here is a cracked egg.... I meant the one in his mouth...






All of the pretty eggs!


After the coloring of the eggs all the kids stayed at our house and waited for the Easter bunny! Big slumber party!! Sunday morning Victor and I got up and went to the Sonrise service for our church at the park down the street. It was a beautiful service and a super nice morning!! Then we came home to find this on our drive way.....


It seems as though the Easter bunny had come to the house and left tracks up and down our driveway.... this was a surprise to me and Victor... it was the coolest thing to see! Clearly our neighbors had been up early... Have I mentioned lately how awesome our neighbors are? Apparently they did this at all the houses on the street with kids! The prints were amazing and Alana and all the kids were excited! I have to admit I was impressed with the idea!!


The girls came out of the room to find their Easter baskets full of candy and loot! Alana was not awake for 5 minutes before she started tearing into the chocolate.... Um... we had to put that away at least until after breakfast!!


After a nice pancake breakfast I made, the girls decided they wanted to dress up for a bit!!


By the afternoon the whole family was at our house to celebrate Easter! We had a million eggs to hide for the kids but somehow it always seems to take them a few minutes to find them all no matter how many we hide!!


Love these kiddo's!


Too bad neither of them are even looking at the camera!

She was too busy to stop and look at the camera, she needed to find more eggs!! Notice the brown snow booty's with the pink dress? She has a certain fashion about her that she won't let me change!! Maybe she's the next Gweny Gwen Gwen..?



Lexers and her cute dress!


Sunday was also Oscar's Birthday so we made sure to get him a yummy cake to celebrate! Happy Birthday Grandpa!!


Finally when everyone left it was time to relax... Alana sat with Roxy and drew her pictures outside in the beautiful sun!


Random picture of one of the beautiful roses from my garden....


The End....
