A Little R & R

What could be more relaxing than being rocked in a swing while holding on to a blanket burp cloth?

Easter Fishin'

Hannah got a fishing pole in her Easter basket from her Aunt Mandi and Uncle Travis. So what better way to break it in, than to do a little Easter fishin'! :o)

After we had breakfast and did the egg hunt we all headed down to the pond.

Hannah did end up catching a catfish. It was one of the ugliest fish I have ever seen. Ew!

But Hannah had a blast and has already asked to go fishing again! I'm sure that makes the papas very happy! :oP

And what is fishing if you don't get a little dirty!? In between her fishing, Hannah was busy throwing dirt and rocks into the pond.

I really can't wait until we can take Hannah up to Wisconsin, where I always went as a child, to go fishing. I know she would have a blast! I think she'll really love going out on the boat. *sigh* Hopefully one day soon we'll be able to go.

Easter Day

We had a crazy busy Easter Day!

In the morning we did baskets at our house.

The Easter bunny left some fun things! :o) 

The onesie says 'Daddy and I agree, mommy is the boss'  :oP

Then we went to papa Tom and grandma Deb's house where the Easter bunny left more goodies for the kids! We had breakfast and Hannah went on an egg hunt.

Auntie Mandi and Uncle Travis got Hannah a fishing pole (separate post to come!).

After breakfast, we came home and opened our Easter basket from papa Brian and grandma Karole.

Fun craft stuff!

As well as our basket from papa Dave and grandma Debbie.

Baking utensils so Hannah can help grandma make more cookies!

And finally we drove out to the great grandparent's house where there were even more goodies and we did another egg hunt.

Colson was obviously too young to go open his baskets on his own
so I feel like he kind of got left out on the picture front...
so I had to include this photo of our little man with grandma.

The best kind of eggs...the ones with money inside!

Hannah and Colson had a great Easter! All of the 'Easter bunnies' were way too generous in their gifts but Hannah and Colson thank them very much! :o)

Easter Egg Coloring

Easter egg coloring was fun this year! Hannah is finally old enough to know what she is doing. Plus is was Colson's first egg coloring! :oP 

The egg coloring kit that we bought had the option to 'paint' the eggs so we figured this would be easiest for Hannah to do. This way she could control the color better instead of just dropping the eggs into the cups.

I hope every one has a great Easter!

Wordless Wednesday

A few weeks ago we had a big diaper box that Hannah decided she wanted to sit in. So Nick plopped her in it and then pushed her down the hallway. She LOVED it! Now her new thing is to ask us to push her down the hallway in the laundry basket (the box ripped).
