Easter at Grandma's

We had Easter dinner and an egg hunt at Grandma and Papa's. Erica and Tyler were there too. The kids had a great time checking out their baskets and hunting for eggs. They were too busy to sit still for many photos, but we managed to snag a couple!

Happy Easter

The boys woke up Easter morning to find a trail of bunny footprints leading to their baskets and a yard full of eggs! They had fun exploring all of the goodies which filled their baskets and then gathering eggs.

Egg Coloring

The night before Easter we kept up the tradition of coloring eggs. We tried a couple of different methods this year so that Maddon could really participate. He found the process amazing! It was really fun to have everyone involved this year!

Egg Hunt

This year, due to Mason's soccer schedule, we were only able to make it to one of our traditional egg hunts. The boys had so much fun though! The kids are divided by age here so we each had to take a kid to their respective field. Then they met up at the end to compare loot! They both did an awesome job and got lots of eggs!

All done!

Easter Bunny

Our annual trip to see the Easter bunny was a success! Both boys waited patiently and sat nicely.  Success!

Kohl's Children's Museum

As a DCM member we also get free admission to a few other area children museums. We decided to check out Kohl's and I think it quickly became a favorite of the boys. They have a large water play area, a Whole Foods market, and a Potbelly-like restaurant area. The boys also enjoyed the vet area as well as the China exhibit. There were even more exhibits and fun things to do. We can't wait to come back in warmer weather to check out the outdoor space!

 Mason enjoyed making crafts in China. He made a flower/card for his teacher as well as a lantern.

Another Lost Tooth

He has lost another one! I'm pretty sure the tooth fairy is going to go broke soon!
