Easter Egg Hunt

We are so blessed with such great friends. Shortly after we arrived back in town, we headed over to our good friends, the Olson's. They had over 60 eggs hidden in their backyard for the 4 girls to search for. They have the best backyard for playing in, and Macy wanted to play more than hunt for eggs (common theme for her). After the hunt, we enjoyed a yummy meal and got to play more before coming home. Madelyn and Alayna are the same age apart as our girls, and both a couple of months younger than our two. They all play really nice together.

Easter bunny

When we came home from Bumpa and Nana's house, we found that the Easter Bunny had stopped by! Madison and Macy found some eggs around the living room, and even Ginger loved looking for the eggs! Robin had also stopped by and surprised the girls with easter baskets full of yummy treats, bubbles, and even these new sunglasses (she's so good to us)!

Swimming

Madison got to swim on Sat. and again on Sunday morning before we left Bumpa and Nana's for home. She is fearless in the water and amazed everyone on Sat. I was able to take two videos of her swimming and jumping in on the noodle. I guess swimming lessons is finally paying off!

Easter at Bumpa and Nana's

My parent's had both sides of the family over on Sat. The girls had a lot of fun playing with everyone. Macy had to take a nap right in the middle of it, so I never got a nice picture of them together with their hair done and cute outfits, oh well! The video is of Madison dancing in the big mirror, of course the dancing before the video was more funny. Macy put her coat on all by herself (she's saying "cheese" as I take the picture)! I didn't take any pictures during the party, but it was so nice to see everyone again.

First day of break...golfing!

Our first say of break was spent cleaning, playing outside, and having lots of fun!!!! Our friend dropped of some toddler golf clubs for us to use with Madison. Jesse couldn't wait to let her try them out and show her how they work. Madison even took them out today on her own! Of course, we have to watch more carefully with these real clubs, versus her plastic ones...they can do much more damage!!! Macy even tried them out today, too!

Visiting friends

A couple of Saturdays ago, we visited our friends, the Schaaf's. The kids had so much fun playing together, especially in Braden's bed. I can't believe Joy got all 3 of them to smile and look at the camera all at once! We always say that Braden is Macy's boyfriend...don't they look cute together!!!!

Egg Hunt

Our friends had their annual Easter Egg Hunt on Sat. I was a couple minutes behind Jesse and the girls and was amazed to find 10 or more kids gathered around the table quietly making crafts. I didn't even think anyone was down there, it was so quiet! After the Easter bunny called the house to say he had left eggs for the kids to "hunt," the loudness began!

It was so fun to watch the girls this year...Madison especially. She was much more into it than last year. Plus, the weather was wonderful, so the Easter bunny left the eggs outside! Macy found just a couple (notice the piggy tails...she's been letting me put them in, and keeping them in). After finding a couple, Macy enjoyed the playground and other toys in the yard. Madison was amazed to open the egg and find candy! She started showing everyone! Of course, we've had to hear her ask for candy non-stop since. What a great day!
