Happy Easter!

On Thursday, the 9th, I volunteered at Kira's preschool. It was a really fun day because they were doing the Easter celebration. They had a little egg hunt out in the playground. The kids had so much fun. It was so cute because the teachers even had a little basket and put enough eggs out for Kaylee to be able to join in too. I love that school!




On Saturday, we colored our eggs. It was kind of crazy because earlier that day, our power went out. All except our washer, fridge, Kaylee's room and a couple other outlets. We had an electrician friend of Kyle's come over and he determined it was a power company problem. They came out and were able to get us up on temporary power but they're going to have to dig up our front lawn tomorrow to fix the problem, nice. Anyway, I had wanted Kyle to be able to do eggs with us so that's why we waited until Sat. afternoon. With him dealing with all the power stuff, I just went ahead and did it with the kids. They did pretty good but I was so afraid the cups were going to be knocked over but all was well. They had a great time!




Trying out the finished product. Yummmm!


On Easter morning, I heard Kaylee calling for me at 6 a.m.! She never wakes up that early. Dang! I got her up and we played up in our room for awhile because I couldn't let her go downstairs without Kira up. Kira finally got up about 7 and they found some eggs in their rooms. Kira didn't understand how the bunny could have put them in her room. They came downstairs and ran all over collecting eggs. I had prepared a breakfast the night before that had to go in the oven. I set the timer and just happened to notice that it took only ten minutes to find and collect four dozen eggs! They are fast! lol They had such a good time. Not to mention munching on all that candy all day.





Later that afternoon, we went to Kyle's mom's house for more egg hunting outside. They have a large yard and they had fun looking all over for the eggs. We had a lovely dinner with family and really enjoyed our Easter day.
