Easter Sunday

 Easter Egg Hunt - the Easter Bunny hid 110 eggs! Lily and Dillon found them all in about 20 minutes.



 Lacy wasn't interested in the egg hunt. She just wanted to eat candy :)
 Dillon shared his eggs with her, though.
 We had to play the "hot/cold" game to help them find the last few.






 Mixing dirt and water to plant their grass.

After our morning at home, we went over to my Mom and Dad's for a wonderful dinner of ham and mashed potatoes. After we spent some time visiting with them, we went over to spend time with Anson's family.
 Lacy stole my water bottle!
 Mimi & Grandpa got everyone an Easter Basket :)

 They loved their baskets :)



What a wonderful Easter we had! We are so blessed!

Easter Bunny and Easter Eggs

Happy Easter! Today we dressed the kids up and took them to Belden to get their photo with the Easter Bunny. Anson and I had to be in the picture too because there's no way Lacy was leaving Daddy's side today and no way she was sitting on that bunny!
My beautiful grown-up girl!
 My handsome big boy!
 My beautiful baby girl! Wearing the same dress Lily wore when she was 2.
 I'm so proud to be these kids' mother!
 Mimi and Grandpa are up this weekend and hung out with us today. Making Easter eggs...





It was a beautiful day, sunny and near 55 degrees. We got to play outside and snuggle in the sunshine. Lily loves taking care of her little sister. Lacy had just woke up from her nap and was still a little tired.
  Mimi was swinging Dillon and Anson and his dad were talking.
More fun to come tomorrow!

Dillon's 4th Birthday Party

A couple of Sundays ago we had a small family party for Dillon. The weather was beautiful! Nana, Papa, Uncle Jamie, Uncle Jeremy and Aunt Heather came over for lunch, presents and cake & ice cream.
 The birthday boy with all his presents.
 Opening gifts
 A punching bag with over sized gloves
 A big Styrofoam plane



 A dinosaur shirt!





Lacy wanted more pizza after lunch! She was a growing girl that day.
 Lily helping Dillon hide his eyes for his last big gift!
 A new big boy bike!


 Nana and her baby girl. (I didn't realize Mom had her eyes shut otherwise I would've retaken the photo.)
 Jeremy put the big plane together and took the kids outside to play with it.
 Jamie was throwing it too. It flew really well. The one time Jeremy flew it a few yards away! The neighbor lady had to hand it back to us.
 The kids loved chasing it all over the yard.




 Silly monkey!
Riding their bikes together
 
Jeremy took them down the street on their bikes
 Dillon did really good on his new bike! 
So, I've been a bit of a blog slacker lately. We went through a few rounds of sinus infections and the stomach flu. Plus, I've been traveling more and Anson traveled one week too. We have been very busy! We are also busy getting our other house cleaned up and are hoping to sell it this year. Plus, we are really looking forward to Spring! I'll try to keep up with the blog better, though!
