Easter 2010

Jordan graced us with his presence during his very short spring break and Easter weekend. ;-) Just kidding Jordan. I know you are a very busy teenager. *sigh* Anyway, we just had a nice weekend of being a family, coloring eggs and driving each other bonkers. Oma, Opa and Uncle Boo came over on Easter to celebrate the boys' birthdays too. Jordan and Jacob got gift cards to Best Buy. Jordan got an iPod Nano with his and Jacob is saving up for one now. James got his iPod Nano, which I don't think has stopped playing since he got it! He he he. My kids love music and I love that they love music.

Here's some of the pictures from our weekend.

Trying to get a nice one of all the kiddos...



I LOVE this one of Jaylynn!

He swears they look nothing alike...



And just because she's freaking adorable



After Oma, Opa and Uncle Boo left, we went up to the middle school to play some basketball.

Happy Easter 2009!

Happy Easter! Dad, Mom and Boo came over today for linner, as Jasmine was calling it. I cooked. Oma and Jasmine made deviled eggs and then everyone ate. We watched golf, which honestly isn't as comletely and utterly boring as I thought. We had strawberry shortcakes, which Oma and Opa brought. YUMMY! Oma even found CHOCOLATE sponge cakes. Are you kidding me? I thought I died and went to heaven. The kids wrestled Uncle Boo. It was a fun day.

The only pictures I got were of 4 of the 5 coloring eggs last night. James was at his mom's. Here's the fun!

Easter 2008

We had a great Easter in the mountains. I just love spending holidays there. Everything is just slowed down and enjoyed so much more. You never stop wishing that Richard and Sandy were there but being there, you feel like they are.

We celebrated on Saturday even though Jamie, Jasmine and Jacob were staying until Monday. I had to be back to babysit on Monday and get James back in time to get to his mom's. Instead of rushing on Sunday, we just did everything on Saturday. Jordan spent this Easter with his dad's family.

Jamie was off mowing something or cutting down a tree; something wilder-nessy. He told me to go ahead and get the kids started on the coloring of the eggs. He'd be back in time. Um, dude, do you remember how quickly our children color eggs? Anyway, here are some pictures of the coloring.

While I was getting the colors ready for the kids, I told them to go ahead and start drawing on their eggs with the white crayons. When I turned around, tis is what I found. Apparently drawing on eggs makes you hungry!



Getting into it







What's coloring eggs without colored hands?





Having fun





Yup, you guessed it ~ Daddy missed egg coloring. I knew that was going to happen!

Later on, Jamie's cousin David, his wife, Michelle and their son, Bradley, came over. They were going to eat with us. We also had an Easter Egg hunt! We had over 130 eggs!! So much fun! And of course, some pictures of the fun!











Now we had a special silver egg which had $5 in it! The kids looked and looked. We even gave clues and finally, Jasmine found it! Am I good or what?



Easter morning with their baskets of goodies!









And right before we went home, Jenna had to take a spin with Daddy. She came home with me. She is just way too mean to her poor daddy to be able to stay with him.
