Spring Break & Easter fun...

We returned home from a wonderful week in Maryland yesterday.  We celebrated Easter a day early, on Saturday, with Keith and Marta...
 The boys had a great time hunting for plastic eggs, eating lots of candy,
…and decorating real eggs.
The lovely hostess...
 James and his "million dollar" bill...
 The boys!
On Saturday night, the Easter Bunny came!  Here are the boys' baskets before he hid them...
 The boys loved waking up super early on Sunday to hunt for their baskets and collect eggs...
 I wonder what this funny expression was for...
The Easter Bunny gave all three boys new swim goggles...
 On Sunday afternoon we went over to my cousin, Laura's, house for a wonderful Easter brunch.  This was just the appetizer table!
 A few of the cute Easter desserts she had...
 Laura, Christian, Margo and Amy...
 The beautiful hostess...
 Pete found a quiet spot to rest...
 It was a perfect day for playing outside!
Keegan, Henry, Pete, and Grace (in the pink dress) being silly...

 Another Easter egg hunt!   (Laura's husband, Keith, dropping eggs for the kids)...
The kids got more candy in two days than two Halloweens combined I think!
 My cousin Laura, Debbie (cousin Jon's wife), Andrea (cousin Eric's wife), and me...
Peter in what appears to be a sugar coma...
Mom and me...

On Tuesday we had another great day with Laura and her kids  We went to two different parks, out shopping, had lunch together, and basically spent the day playing and catching up some more.  It was a lot of fun.

 Margo driving the bus...
Our kids took up the entire swing set (Margo was on the last swing but hopped off when I took this picture)...
 A secret family meeting...
 Even Charlie had a great week, running and playing and enjoying all of the extra attention.
The only crummy part about going home to Maryland is leaving again.  Thanks to everyone for making our visit home so very special.  xo

About Me

My photo
I am a stay-at-home mom to 3 energetic, funny, sweet, and crazy boys. I married my best friend, Chris, and love our life together. The Army is sending him overseas soon so I thought this blog would be a great way for him (and the grandparents!) to keep up with our hectic life. Unfortunately the Army keeps us too far from family and most of our friends so hopefully this will help us stay connected.
