Easter...only a couple of weeks late

We try to get out of this , this year with everything going on,but I think if we didn't have them color eggs we would've regret it. It been awhile to have a little one at the table, coloring eggs. Kjell was too young last year to get in the thick of things, but he was so excited to do it this year. The funny thing is he had the same colors as the rest of them,but only seem to like green...some might remember when Erik was little, him eating the blue tablet. He still doesn't believe he did this, but we have pictures to prove it.


Well this year it was the green dye for Kjell. He couldn't get the eggs in the green dye fast enough. He keep using his hands to put the eggs in the dye. Some times trying to get 3 eggs in dye at a time. Yes, silly us this was 2 days before Sunday. What was I thinking...

The rest had fun too.... here is Erik, Lauren, Kathryn and Karl dying eggs.

Next Kjell went on a practice run at Grandma's House... it was more for Grandma and Grandpa to see Kjell hunt for eggs.
The next day we went to my sister, Cheri's Annual Easter Egg Hunt at her house. The kids collected about a 3 dozen a piece...way to much candy filled eggs, but they thought it was great. Karl went for prize eggs that took him about 10 minutes to get to it, there was about 1/2 roll of duct tape around it. Kjell notice they had candy in them and stop after the first one. All the kids took a prize home. Here are some of the pictures:



Easter morning...boy did it come early. We have early morning church. Here is what the Easter Bunny brought:

I was thinking that I would have their hair cut and make them dress up again before I posted these, but who am I kidding, it like pulling teeth at my house to have my boys dress up..maybe Mother's Day if I could be so lucky. Here are some pictures of my handsome boys in their Easter outfits:

That is so neat! Sometimes I'm so jealous of you guys all being so close to all your family! Your kids really have such a strong bond with their cousins, it's very cool!

Of course they are the most handsome boys in the world. They look like my side of the family. LOL
