Egg Hunts and Easter

I know these are completely out of order, but oh well...we will work with it! This is at Grandpa and Grandma Rowley's house. We had an egg hunt on monday after Easter. The kids had a lot of fun. They started downstairs, and while they were hunting, the dads and grandpa hid the eggs upstairs.




We had the egg hunt at my parents house on Saturday before Easter. We usually do it outside, but since there was an inch of snow out there, we opted for inside. We usually set part of the lawn aside for the little kids and then the bigger ones get the rest. (theres 1 and a half acres) so there is always good spots for the eggs. We had to be more creative indoors, so the little ones went first, then followed by the older kids.


Here are the kids 5 and under waiting for their turn...
Can you tell they are SO excited to be doing this!!!

We had to be sneaky for the older ones, they had almost no problem finding them all.

Here are the little ones with their goodies, they were so cute, and so excited to have found their eggs. Only more interested in what was in them.
The aftermath, everyone trading the candy they don't like for some good stuff. It was a lot of fun, and hopefully next year we will be able to do it outside!
Easter morning, the kids went on an egg hunt in the house, and found so much candy and treats.


Here are their cute baskets, if you can't read the signs...I came upstairs to find that Abby wanted the Easter bunny to know whose basket was whose, and if they were a boy or a girl. So they said "ABBY girl, NATHAN boy, LEAH girl." It made me laugh, I loved it!
Leah just wanted to see what was in the bottom. They each got a new swimsuit, a zhu zhu pet, and an electric toothbrush.

Apparently the tube of Tootsie Rolls was a hit! Now bring on the warm weather!!
