Easter

Easter morning after Jason got back from the woods & we had breakfast Kale found his Easter basket the Easter bunny had left! He got a new sippy cup, hat, a few other things, and candy. It's too bad he can't eat all that candy....Jason & I have it covered though :).

After playing with his new stuff and getting ready we headed to Middletown. The first stop was at Grandma Barb's & Papa Tom's. Almost everyone was there and after a great lunch the kids hunted eggs and we pretty much spent the rest of the time hanging out outside since it was so nice. The Belts brought their wagon so Cooper & Kale got to spend a lot of time playing in there. Kale loved it when someone pulled them around, but also when it was just sitting still so I think we are going to have to get one soon! When we got home I realized most of my pictures were of Cooper & Kale in the wagon. One of these times I'm going to get some pictures of the rest of the chaos :)!

Later in the afternoon we headed to Granny Dot's & Grandpa Tainter's house. Kale fell asleep on the way & slept in the car for a while before getting up to play again. Once again we spent most of our time outside until we had to go inside so the eggs could be hidden and after the eggs to see what goodies were left for the kiddos. It was so nice we even ate supper out on the picnic table, well the "kids" did anyway. "Kids" includes Travis & Jessi :)! After more time in the wagon and hunting the eggs we headed home. Just in time too! Thank goodness we were headed east. The storm was in the path home for the rest of the family and they had to wait it out at grandma & grandpa's because of tornadoes that had been spotted.

We had a great time seeing everyone and were all worn out from the busy weekend. In fact 2 of us slept most of the way home!

Saturday night after Rhett's Birthday Party we headed to my mom & dad's for supper and had an egg hunt (in the dark) for the kids. I thought this picture of TJ in his pajamas getting ready to go home was too cute not to post :)
