EASTER!!!

Presto's a little busy with his candy eating but the whole fam is there!

Our morning started off with a visit from the bunny.  He made bunny tracks from our front gate to our backyard where the night before the kids had buried "magic" jellybeans.  In the morning they found chocolate lollipops had sprouted and the Easter bunny left their baskets outside near his tracks!

Our next festivities were our neighborhood egg hunt.  We are so happy with our neighborhood and it's holidays like this that bring us all together.  We have a green space behind our track and we decided to throw a huge neighborhood hunt this year!   Each family stuffed 10-12 eggs/child, we gathered them all up and Daddy and Chad hid them all over the field.  Ally and Jason and the boys joined us.  It's so amazing to watch all the kids with their excited smiles looking through the gate in anticipation for their candy extravaganza.  I stayed with Bentley and he knew exactly what to do! He was so excited to pick up each egg and put it in his basket.  After, we all cracked confetti eggs and watched the kids intake an abundance of sugar.
Look what our "magic jellybeans" sprouted!
Running so fast to the treasure!
So excited to follow the tracks to their baskets!

Even B got in on the action

Picture with the Easter Bunny


We kinda new it would go this way.  Last weekend when we had breakfast with the Easter Bunny Bentley cried so hard when the bunny so much as looked his way.  We love this picture so much though.  Phia is our oh so obedient princess, Presto's never been scared of the bunny but isn't one for sitting in one place, and Bentley...well...no commentary needed poor guy:(

Coloring Easter eggs...

So much to do and so little time.  With new baby coming soon we find our weekends so jammed packed with preparing that we waiting until the last minute to decorate eggs!! We set up shop in the backyard and decided to try out some glitter eggs this year as well.  Presto and Phia had a blast and daddy was "glitter" helper while mommy snapped pictures:)
