Hoppy Easter Everyone!

Easter morning, the girls were up bright and early to start hunting for eggs.  As usual, the Easter bunny didn't disappoint. 
 

 

3-2-1 Let the hunting begin!

I think because the girls are getting older, the Easter Bunny is starting to hide their baskets in really tricky places.  Rian's was hidden behind the TV (her favorite pasttime) and you could only see a hint of it if you crouched down and looked beneath the screen.

Hayden got some new flip-flops and Jessie liked her fashion design set.

Gifts from our neighbors, Willey and Diane. After breakfast, everyone showered and put on their Easter dresses and we headed to church with Grandma and Grandpa.  It was a very nice service and a beautiful day outside (almost 70 degrees) so we stopped at Coyote Ridge on the way home for a quick picture or two.
 
 

 

Once we got home, the kids played outside and then we headed to Grandma's for a late lunch.  It was a very nice day and once we returned home we went on a nice long walk around our neighborhood.  We love Spring!!!

Coloring Eggs

We had fun coloring Easter eggs Saturday night.  With Easter being Rian's favorite holiday, we made sure we had plenty of eggs for everyone.  The girls really took their time this year, and the colors turned out great.

Let the decorating begin.

 

Sisterly bunny love????


After awhile, we began to see a pattern in our egg-making.  Many of them were Hawaiin- themed.  I guess we still all have Maui on the Brain!

One of Rian's eggs had a hibiscus flower on it, and one of mine said "Aloha Keiki".  Mike thought he was clever drawing the islands of Hawaii.

Done and done.  Now all we had to do was wait for the Bunny himself to do the rest.

Rian's 1st Grade Music Program

This year, Ms. Harrison (the music teacher at McGraw) put together a Spring Music Program for the 1st graders and their parents. There was definitely a lot of excitement in the air and the kids were so proud and happy to show off all the songs they had learned throughout the year. Rian was nervous at first, but quickly got comfortable and had a great time.
