Easter Weekend

This Easter started out much the same as last Easter...

We had some friends plan an Easter egg hunt at a park for Saturday, and just like the same event last year, it was FREEZING! Fortunately, Miley didn't seem to care and still had fun decorating an egg carton, eating some yummy treats, and hunting for eggs to put in her bucket.












Landon had the best seat in the place...all bundled up in his stroller! I wish I had the same setup for me! :)


Easter Sunday was nice and laid back. Miley woke up and immediately realized that the Easter Bunny had been there, and she found all the eggs he left behind, narrating everything by saying "Wow!" or "Awesome!" After finding all the eggs, she proclaimed that the Easter Bunny had "Made mess". I guess that is a way of looking at it...

Unfortunately, I was having too much fun watching her find her eggs that I didn't take any pictures, but I got a picture of her with both kid's baskets after everything had been opened.

The Easter Bunny brought Miley "Tangled" (her favorite movie at the moment!), some princess puzzles, a cute little apron, a little horse, a couple books, and of course, lots of candy!

Landon got a book, a little dog rattle, an elephant toy, a seahorse that glows and plays soothing music, and a blue hooded towel (the Easter bunny must have known that he had been using his sister's old pink towels...how embarrassing!).


Miley has been going through an anti-picture phase lately, hence the not-so-excited expression in this photo...trust me, she was much happier than she appears. :)


We went to church...
...and after church we spent the evening with Don and Cindy and fam celebrating Easter and Don's birthday (the last one for a while, as they are ditching us to go to INDIA for two years!).

We had a great weekend relaxing and having fun with family and friends, and crossour fingers that next year the weather will be a little nicer for egg hunting!

Okay, Miley's hat is so cute I can hardly stand it! She is such a stylin sassy little lady. Love her and all her cuteness. That 5th pic down is my fav! So much personality in that tiny little body! Looks like a great Easter, cold weather and all. Nothing stops the hearty Minnesotans from having a good time, you're totally becoming one aren't you? ; ) Seeing your baskets for the kids is giving me some major guilt since the "Easter bunny" totally forgot to get Cam something! Horrible right?! Guess that's the curse of being the 3rd child! At least he's too young to remember but still, I'm sure he'll look back at his first Easter pics and be like, "What the heck mom!"

I'm hoping for some nicer egg hunting weather next year, too! These pictures of the kids on easter in their winter gear just aren't cutting it for me anymore. :) I love how Miley said that the Easter Bunny made a mess... that had me laughing. And the kids look adorable in their Sunday best... does Miley still fit in her Easter dress from last year?!
