Our Easter Weekend

Our Easter weekend was busy and so fun! Nothing out of the ordinary, but I wanted to share some pictures of the kiddos.

Dad and Alex started off the weekend shooting the airsoft guns that Alex got for his birthday.

He looked soooo cute in his safety glasses!  Just look at how the straps poke his ears out!

After a few hundred rounds of plastic pellets were shot, we had a little egg hunt at my in-laws’.

I thought I would try to get some shots of them in their Easter outfits since Easter Day was forecasted to be stormy and icky, but…I had little cooperation.  When I tried pictures of them together, this is what I got:

So I just snapped what I could get.

Then we rode in Grandma’s car out to her house and Elliott gave out.

Alex peeked at me through the headrest…

We settled in at Grandma’s for the night and enjoyed a much-needed thunderstorm that dropped almost 2 inches on our very thirsty world.  Luckily, by the time our next egg hunt rolled around, most of the water was soaked up and we could go on with our fun.

Note the waterproof shoes and rolled up pants.  That’s our way with coping with mud and preventing messy cuffs.  Always prepared, baby!

  2. And it looks almost like Daddy was a little cold, and that Grammy had a great time, too! ;)
