Northridge Easter Egg Hunt & Party

Brenley got to celebrate Easter on Thursday at Northridge, because today the Christian school is closed in observance of Good Friday!  I think her and her friends had a good time eating snacks and then hunting eggs outside on the playground.  A little light rain was not enough to stop them!

I took this one specifically to see the houses recently built right off the lake. Unbelievable.

Hmm.....do I want this one?

Making sure each of them only had 12 eggs

Chhhheeeeesssseee!

The Disney Princess baseball glove seems to be serving it's purpose. Daddy can't stop smiling right now.

And this is as far as Brenley would get....
Close enough for her!

We couldn't have designed a more perfect weather day for our Easter celebration with the Grant Family. Lovely Palm Sunday church service where Brenley informed me that "these are not leaves, but palms, Mom." She was right. Who was I to argue.

So after church, we went back to the Grant house for lunch, Easter baskets, and egg hunts.  I got some great pictures, so I'll let them do most of the talking.....

Tyler not wanting his picture taken, but would rather enjoy eating his puffs.

My kiddo's. I failed to get them BOTH looking at the camera at the same time, no matter how many pictures I snapped.

Mmm..... new toy. With candy inside?!?

Help!  I'm falling!

Okay, I'm back up and now to get Mommy's sunglasses!

Give 'em here, Mommy!

Almost. Got.Them.

Whoo Hoo! Success!

Now, why is he wearing my Mom's sunglasses?

Beau, come on. Gimme 'em back!

Got 'em again!

Lovely, fun day celebrating Easter with family!  Great kick off to Easter week!

Birthday Party Saturday

So between the two kids, they were invited to four different birthday parties on Saturday, the 31st.  Two cousins (one in Wichita, one in Stillwater, OK), and Brenley had two friend/daycare buddy parties.

In order to make both kids happy, and not make Mom and Dad too crazy, we opted to split up.  We didn't go to one of the daycare buddy party Saturday morning, but between us, we made it to three of the four!

Beau and I headed to Stillwater for my nephew Brady's 10th birthday party.  It was a lot of fun. I always enjoy watching my brothers act like children!  No pictures of Travis doing a flip, but I do have one of Troy on the rings!

Brian and Bren went to Will's 2nd birthday party here in Wichita. Then they headed to her friend Spencer's birthday later that afternoon. Whew!  We were all tired when we finally got back home together, but it was a day well spent!  Happy Birthday to all of our March birthday's!  There was certainly a lot of them this month!

Here are some pictures from Will's birthday party.

Will, the birthday boy - obviously enjoyed his cake!

Big Brother, Luke, attacking his cake too.

Sweet face. Looks like he likes our gift.

Here are some pictures from Brady's birthday party.
