Easter

Our Family

The day before Easter Aunt Trista took Sadie and her cousins to go see Hop. Sadie was so excite about going to a movie--she's been asking for awhile now! After the movie I met them at the mall to take Sadie shopping at Claires. She had a gift card to spend. Even though she's indecisive and it took us over an hour to spend $10 I LOVED it! I'm so excited to keep shopping with her as she grows. I was cracking up because I introduced her to bargain shopping by pointing out the clearance racks. After I told her the prices of a few things she quickly started asking "Where are the sale headbands?"... etc. She ended up with princess press-on nails (her only non-clearance item!), a zebra striped headband, a fake hair extension clip, and a Disney princess necklace. She was also very excited to get her picture taken with the Easter bunny!

Easter morning Marc's mom made breakfast. The kids were up early so we let them hunt for baskets before breakfast. Apparently Sadie had already scoped out Macey's basket because when we told her it was okay to start looking she walked right over to it and said "Macey, I found your basket!" They had fun looking for baskets and checking out their goodies. After hunting we ate breakfast and then baths and church.

Yes--Kinnick got a Dora book in his basket, he LOVES Dora. He also got some new undies. Maybe we'll be trying them out in the near future!

Notice the bug net... Sadie and Kinnick each got one. When we were unloading our stuff Saturday Sadie saw the nets in a bag with all the Easter goodies. She kept asking me what they were for and were we going fishing. The day after Easter she said, "Mom--remember those nets me and Kinnick got? I know that you really got those for us. Did you tell the Easter bunny to put them into our baskets?" Yes, Sadie--that is what I told him.

After church we enjoyed a yummy lunch with Marc's parents and sister (and a teacher from Janet's school) and then Aunt NeeNee had an Easter Egg hunt for the kids. Easter night included playing outside, eating popcorn, putting the kids to bed early, and a movie for Marc and I!
