We had a great Easter weekend! We had egg hunts, went to the movies to see Hop (an Easter movie), went to church, and had visits from the Easter Bunny!

After church, we went to Mamaw and Papaw's house and had dinner, an egg hunt, and opened up our Easter baskets from the Easter Bunny! Carter enjoyed sitting on Papaw's lap and telling stories to each other, some true, and some far-fetched made-up (or what the kids call "fiction") stories!

It was such a beautiful mild day for awhile. We spent it outside swinging and just relaxing!

Carter getting sleepy

Easter bunny came to Mamaw and Papaw's house too!

New Princesses and Cars books were a HIT!

We had an egg hunt at Mamaw and Papaw's

Addison got upset because Carter was beating her to all of the eggs! He was being the typical boy in gym class who out-runs the girl and does everything before she can! She was the typical girl and just cried about it! I can't wait to show them these pics when they are older!

"What, what did I do to Addison mom?"



Again, typical girl, crying one minute, ecstatic the next! She's a hoot!



Loving the egg hunt now! :)



Grabbing all of the eggs before his sister!

"On your mark, get set, GO!" Getting ready to start their egg hunt!

My babies and I after church Easter Sunday, love them!

My world.

Daddy's buddies getting restless! :) I sure do like having my handsome, groomed hubby back! It's a long 4 months of growing hair and beard out for church musical (playing role of Jesus) for Jesse (and ok me too) but well worth the sacrafice of that and the time he spent putting into practicing. Lots of people got saved and that's all that matters! Praise God!




Our family Easter Sunday!


Sick of pictures (for some odd reason) and wanting to go to church!

I loved her little Elephant beaded dress! Gymboree is my weakness! :(

Sweet little girl


Can we say Carter looks like Daddy much? :)

I love this kid!

Such a sweet little boy

Mr. Handsome looking like Daddy!



My babies before church!

She's so fun to dress up! She looks much cuter in clothes than I do! :)

Lip Gloss was a hit! Thanks Bunny!

Seeing what the bunny brought him! He loved it all!

Wake up princess, Easter bunny left you a surprise! But, you have to go find it!

Wake up Carter, the Easter bunny was just here!

The Easter bunny came and delivered goodies: dvds, candy, books, necklaces, rings, car keys, cars, and more candy!

After seeing the Easter bunny, they always love to wear the ears around the mall for awhile!

Makes my heart smile! :)

Being silly, waiting for the Bunny.


We stood in line for the Easter bunny behind another set of twins! They were two and ALL OVER THE PLACE! Aww how I miss those days! :)

Waiting in line for the Easter Bunny, Carter not wanting his picture taken of course! :)

Visiting Easter bunny and looking way too old! :(

visiting the Easter bunny at the mall! Normally don't take the stroller, but we were doing A LOT of shopping that afternoon! They would have pooped out! :)
We had a great Easter weekend! We did miss our Mamaw-Mamaw this year. She always loved helping the kids find their eggs. She would also do the egg hunts for my cousins and I growing up. Then, she loved helping Carter and Addison with their eggs. I miss her, we all miss her around here. But, we know we will see her again someday because of what Jesus did for us on that cross, the reason for the season.
Egg hunts were so fun this year! The kids were really competitive this year, especially Carter! He ran so fast, and wanted to get ALL of the eggs! Sissy finally had had enough and started pouting and crying during the egg hunt and says, "Doosie is getting all the eggs and not me!" It was pretty cute and I can't wait to show them these pictures one day later, when they're all grown up and too big for egg hunts.
I took the kids on Friday to the movies because I had Good Friday off. So, first, we met daddy for lunch at Milanos and then the kids and I went to the movies to see Rio, except Rio was sold out! I guess all the kids were home from school and had the same idea: Let's go see Rio! Ha! So, we ended up seeing Hop, an Easter bunny movie. It was cute, but had some adult conversations that were boring for kids throughout some parts. Addy's eyes were glued the entire time, Carter got restless about halfway through due to the lack of animation in scenes. He would say pretty loudly: "how do you get out of here mom?" "When's this going to be over, this is taking forever!" "I'm tired!" And yawned really loud several times! Ha! People (yes, even me!) were laughing at all of his comments. Funny thing is, I was thinking the exact same things! The movie wasn't that good, but we stayed, finished it out, all for Addy bug's sake! She loved it!
Not much news on the house yet, which is okay, because we are not in any rush. Just letting the Lord work things and decisions out for our family.
Praying for our doggie Macy, who's been very sick this week. In fact, the thought of putting her to sleep was mentioned if these meds don't heal her back. So, we are praying for our little Macy, we love her so much!
Jesse gets father of the year award once again! He took the sick dog and the twins to the vet alone on Saturday so I could go with my best friend from work and another good friend from work to get lunch and pedicures. My best friend at work, Amanda, is 36 weeks pregnant with her little baby girl and due very soon! So, we took her to lunch and to get her toes done on Saturday and Jesse had the honor of taking the dog (who couldn't walk) and the twins to the vet! What a mighty good man! :) I love him.
Only 4-5 weeks of school left! Yay! OAAs next week! Yay! The countdown is on and I can smell the chlorine of Boomerrang Bay now! Ahh! We can't wait!
