Easter Weekend(Part 1)...

We had a busy Easter weekend with Avery's birthday, all the Easter stuff going on as well as our monthly family get together.

Friday was Avery's birthday. We kept things pretty low key. She got this cute little piano, a purse and some hair clips from her cousins in California. As you can see Maddy loves the piano as much(if not more) than Avery.

On Saturday I took the kids to the ward Easter party. It was originally going to be at a park but due to rainy weather was moved to the church. We had a yummy picnic lunch and then there was an Easter Egg hunt for the kids. Avery had fun running around and Maddy had a hard time being patient and waiting for the Easter egg hunt.

The kids checking out their candy.

Saturday evening we colored eggs. I bought the "glitter" kit but decided to skip out on the glitter after realizing it was everywhere before even opening the packet. Don't you hate that about glitter! Lyndsey and John came over while we were finishing up the eggs. I had a hard time just getting this picture of the kids-Avery kept grabbing the eggs and banging them on the counter and Maddy wouldn't look at the camera. Thanks for the help getting the picture Lyndsey!

Maddy had so much fun playing dinosaurs with Lyndsey and listening to music on her Ipod.

Maddy woke up at 7:00am Easter morning and was so excited to find all the eggs the Easter Bunny hid. I had to wake Avery up so she wasn't quite as happy.

The Easter Bunny even left eggs in the basement. The kids also got a kite, bathing suit and shorts.

I had to post this picture to cause Maddy looks so cute! He insisted on holding his egg coloring stick. My brother Shawn spent the night so we were able to have him take some pictures. Thanks Shawn! Hope you all had a wonderful Easter!
