Easter

We had a great Easter. We started the weekend by dying eggs Saturday morning. Cade thought it was pretty cool. He wanted to use all the colors so in the end his egg turned nice shade of brown.


Next we headed over to a friends house for an Easter egg hunt. We froze!! Really hope warmer weather comes soon. Anyway Cade loved the egg hunt. Last year he was so consumed with getting what was inside that he hardly got any eggs. This time he went around and got lots of eggs and then was totally  consumed with getting them opened . All weekend it has been a fight to restrict him from just eating candy all day. Sometimes I would find him holding some and I would tell him that, "No, we are not eating candy right now". Frequently his response was, "I am just looking at it." or, "I'm not! I am just licking it!" Right Cade.



And then Easter day! I made it a goal to make Rylee her Easter dress and Cade a matching tie. It was quite the learning experience but I had so much fun! I think they turned out cute. After church we hid baskets and did our own Easter egg hunt. Cade got Candyland so we spend lots of time playing it that evening. We had some great family time and really enjoyed our day. 
The girls...

The boys. And yes, if you have not noticed by now, Cade got his first buzz. His hair is pretty light so it looks nearly gone but it is there, just short.

The kids. Neither one was very happy about posing for the camera. Cade is thinking, "All I have to do is give this fake smile a little longer and I can have more of that Easter candy they bribed me with..."


And the family :)
