Happy Spring!

We had a fun Easter this year! Yes, I know there are a lot of pictures, but I love so many of them so I had to share. Mike's parents came out this year, so we were able to spend it with them and his 2 sisters. Jake and his cousin had an Easter egg hunt, which was actually a 5 minute dash to see who could get the most eggs ~ yes, Ty was a bit quicker again this year, coming in at about 40 eggs to Jake's 8. Jake likes to take his time and carefully open each and every egg to inspect the contents and show it to mom and dad. It's the same on Halloween with Jake and Ty. They are such good friends but such different little boys! Makenzie and her cousin Lincoln enjoyed the couple eggs they found and just liked being outside ~ along with the rest of us! It is so fun to have a little girl to dress up on these fun occasions. I have been anticipating this year since she was born. When I could dress her up in an Easter dress and she could walk and carry her basket! We have loved every minute of it. Enjoy the pictures.

On the hunt

"I'll trade you a blue for 2 yellows!"

"Don't touch ~ they're my eggs!" Finders keepers! (Typical Jake face)

This one got stuck here in the middle somehow, but this is Kenzie's favorite thing to do....
brush her teeth! She wants to do it many times a day. This is also the first day I was able to put her hair in pig tails. She seems to only let me do it when she is brushing her teeth.

"The boys took all the eggs!"

This picture reminds me of myself at this age. I think my mom has a similar picture.

Enjoying the outdoors!

Kenzie LOVES chocolate, just like her brother!
