Easter

The boys had an awesome Easter weekend which started out on Friday evening with dying eggs.  It was hard for them to be patient while waiting on the eggs, but they did okay and when they were done they were both very proud of their work. 


On Saturday evening we got out their Easter baskets and to no surprise they instantly put them on their heads....

Finally, on Sunday morning they got to wear their suits.  They had been waiting all week to wear them.  Both of them love to dress like daddy so they thought it was pretty cool to wear a tie.




Of course, to them the best part is the toys and candy that the Easter bunny left in their baskets, and the eggs that he hid at Aunt Wendy and Uncle Kyle's.

Uh-Oh! Bass-oom all gone!

Yep, our bathroom is all gone!  This is all that remains... 
 



I'm hoping in a week or two (hopefully not two) I'll be able to post pics of the completed project!

Bunnies...

Here are the boys showing off their little bunny craft projects.  I remember making these little egg carton bunnies almost every year when I was a kid and so I had to make sure the boys made them too.  Colby filled his up with cotton balls and carried it around the house for a long time until the dogs ripped most of the cotton off of it.  Jacob left his on the dining room floor and then ran up to it and stomped on it.  I think I can repair them good enough for the Easter bunny to put some candy or eggs in them, if he has any leftovers.

GeoCaching

This afternoon we set out on our first geocaching adventure.  We marked two locations within a short walk from our house, we found one but couldn't find the other...bummer.  We'll look for it again on a day when it's not so cold.  There are a bunch of geocaches hidden throughout Marshall and we are going to find as many as we can over the summer.


Here we are with our first find (Colby is holding the container)
