Easter Morning 2011

Ready to come find their baskets!

So excited!

Examining their loot :)

They love playing MarioKart on the Wii, so there candy dispensers (total Pez knockoffs) were perfect for them

Yummy! Everyone's favorite Easter candy!

Caleb's favorite series to read is Captain Underpants right now. What little boy wouldn't love a story full of potty humor? :)

The Easter Bunny knew Rory has some sleep issues and brought her a Lavender Lab. Super soft and yummy smelling, its supposed to promote deep sleep. This mommy-bunny is ready to try anything to get a good nights sleep!

Hunting for eggs. Yes, those are pictures still in packaging from moving. Don't judge. How can I hang pictures when I don't have furniture yet??

Oh eggs!!! Where are you??

Found one!

Seeing what they found (candy and pennies)

All dressed nice and ready for church!

Trying to get all three together was quite the adventure. Rory either wanted to look up at them and would twist sideways or arch her back to try and stand up.

Almost got it!

Isabelle picked out the girl's dresses. She loved the poofy skirts. Oh, and she wanted her hair bow right on top, "just like minnie mouse."

Such a cute little poof-ball!

The ribbon in her bow said "Hoppy Easter" :)

Super Cute Mommy Swimsuits!

I'm so excited! There is a giveaway going on for these super cute swimsuits! Head over here to check it out! Seriously some of the cutest suits for a mommy (love the tummy taming tankini bottoms!).

Easter Egg Hunt

Isabelle's preschool class had their Easter egg hunt this morning. There were a LOT of eggs. They asked each kid to bring in 30 eggs and it added up, not that the kids were complaining. :)

Eggs!

Some of the parents stayed and we "hid" the eggs while the kids played on the playground.

Its a sea of Easter eggs!

All lined up and ready to hunt!

(side note- See the cute little guy in front? That's Jerrin, Isabelle says she is marrying him on Dec. 25th)

Go!

Looking for more eggs.

I think you got them all!

Isabelle and her friend, Rio. You can't see, but yes, Rio's bucket was just as full. All the kids had full baskets and buckets. They were in heaven.

Rory got to hang out too. :)

Spring Break 2011

When JetBlue did one of their cheapy airfare sales a couple months ago, we snatched up some tickets to Vegas for super cheap. Why Vegas? The kids have been begging to go back ever since their Uncle Spencer and Aunt Skylar got married there almost 3 years ago. Plus, its a great first flight destination, just long enough to get the experience without being too long. :)

Getting ready to board the plane at the LB Airport

Rory and I did some window shopping :)

City Center had some fun stuff for the kids too. Like these giant rabbits!

And a bunch of these water hurricanes.

Rory just hanging out with mom.

Giant chocolate fountain at the Bellagio.

Yummy!

Rory on her bed.

Grandma was a little worried that the baby would keep everyone awake all night, so she sprang for a second room. Worked out awesome! Rory slept great, I think she liked having her own queen size bed.

Where we stayed, the Excalibur!

(the kids wanted to sleep in the castle hotel)

They liked the moving walkways.

And Spongebob!

Vegas wasn't the only thing we did. :) We also went to an Ontario Reign game and Daddy did a great job and got each kid a puck at the end of warm-ups so we got free souvenirs! It was a fun spring break, but boy were we all happy when school started back up!

What do you get when the baby holds in her poo for 3 days?

You get all of this loveliness!!!

Needless to say, Rory is feeling MUCH better now.
