Go Dragons!

Braden has started his second year of t-ball. Last year we started him even though he was still 2 years old (almost 3)...and he did OK. This year he seems to enjoy it a lot better! He is on the green team this year with 9 other little boy and girl dragons. It is so funny to watch all the little ones run around to get the ball and then all end up in one big dog pile together.

One last Easter thing..

Blaker!!!

Easter morning right before the egg hunt (while daddy was watching him) he found one little mud hole in the backyard and decided to play in it!

In his Easter outfit!

this picture does not do the situation justice...he had it all over his shirt and his shorts! Needless to say mama was not happy!

Easter 2009

Easter snuck up on me so quick this year we didn't start to talk about Easter until a couple of days before. The Easter bunny came to our house and hid the boys' baskets and Easter eggs for all the kids. Braden and Blake searched the entire house and looked in all of their favorite hiding spots for hide and seek for their baskets. They finally found them in our downstairs bathroom shower where the Easter bunny hid them.

Then we had some family over for a yummy breakfast and egg hunt for all the kiddies in our backyard. We let Blake and Tate out for about 30 seconds so they had a shot at getting a few eggs before we released the wolves!

Tyler, Tate, Hunter, Alexis, Jaycie, Blake, Braden
a little hard to get a pic when I place them all with sun in their eyes! (oops)

Egg Coloring

We had all the kids over for the egg coloring again this year. Everything is funner in numbers! Us mama's thought 3 dozen eggs would be plenty for 5 kids to color, but we were wrong, next year we will need to do a dozen per kid. All the kids were ready to color more more more. Jaycie was a sweet baby girl and was content just to lay in the swing and watch all the chaos from a distance!

Beginning of Easter Festivities

The boys were invited to a birthday party for one of our neighbor friends. They had a big inflatable water slide and jumpy. The boys were a little cold, but they had fun anyways :). They also had a Easter hunt for all the kiddos 6 years and younger at the party. Notice I didn't call it a egg hunt, because there were many goodies for all the kids to find. What a great party idea for April all the kids had a blast and it got them warmed up for the next weekend!
