Happy Easter?!

So we started off the morning with the boys fighting over finding the hidden Easter eggs. After an hour of being the "ref" .. I had had enough I went back to bed hoping when I would wake up the day would be a little more peaceful. I think next year the Easter Bunny isn't going to hide any eggs. Can the Easter Bunny put coal in a basket, like Santa can in a stocking?

For dinner we had tri-tip, funeral potatoes, rolls, with strawberry shortcake to finish off the meal. When I pulled the tri-tip out of the oven Miles asked me if we were going to be "eating the Easter Bunny!" What a funny kid.


Thursday, Caden's preschool class had a Easter party. They had an Easter egg hunt, sang "Spring" songs and had a potluck.
Caden and his "Bunny Ears." (aka Alexandra's tights.)
Friday was the start of Spring Break for Miles. We went to McDonald's and treated ourselves to the $1 menu. We went to the park and had an Easter Egg Hunt with our friends. (A big thank you to Jeremy who came and hid all the eggs for us moms.) Alexandra enjoyed carrying Sophie's Easter basket around her neck and on her head.

Just woke up from her Sunday afternoon nap.
Playing Pat-A-Cake: Roll it:

Mark it with an "A":

And throw it in the oven!! (her favorite part)

Saturday was the start of the baseball games for the season. The boys' first 3 games are all at the same day/time. So I was back and forth watching both games. Luckily the fields are close to each other. Miles hit a triple and got a few outs at first. Caden hit a home run and caught a fly ball and turned it into a double play! It's fun to watch when your boys play well.

Also, I got a new camera for my birthday a few weeks ago. I have had fun taking pictures of Alexandra with it. I haven't figured out all the features of it, yet. I love the 10x zoom and how clear the pictures turn out. Hence, many pictures in the post.


Other good news, is that we heard today that the seller accepted the offer that we put on a house. Now, the offer goes to the bank which can take 2 to 3 weeks to hear back from them. Then if the bank accepts the offer then we go in to the regular 30 day escrow. What a long process.

Wow Britt! That is quite the weekend. That's so cool that you got a new camera. I don't think mom would ever buy me a new one because she knows it wouldn't last. I am excited about your house. That's awesome. Tell Miles and Caden that if they hit more homeruns than they could become baby ruthie!! hehe! Alexandra is stinkin cute. Has she gotten the walking down? I'm glad when you post something new!! Love ya!

What a busy weekend! My boys still play T-Ball which is nice. Hopefully this year they will be on the same team making things even easier for Ryan and I. Good Luck with the house. I hope it all works out for you.
