After our late night on Easter eve, we kind of had to drag Spence out of the bed Easter morning to go see what the bunny brought! I think he was glad he got up when they finally got downstairs to see their surprises!

We then hunted eggs outside…

and ate a little chocolate for breakfast!

After that we put on our Easter finest…

and headed to Montgomery where we met up with the cousins for a great lunch at the country club.

We even managed to get some cute cousin pics! Just missing Margaret in these…

When did Spencer get so tall and skinny?!

And their faces just make me laugh here…

We then went back over to Jenny and Ronnie’s house to hang for a bit and did get a very cute picture with Margaret included this time!

Please look at Baby laughing!  🙂

We then ate a little more candy and headed home, happy and tired!

So grateful to get together with family for a wonderful day!

Happy Easter!

 

In previous years we’ve gone to a big egg hunt outside of Montgomery on the Saturday before Easter. This year, Maxwell had a baseball game so we weren’t able to go. It worked out though because we were able to get together with a few of our neighbors for a fun egg hunt!

It was 5 families and 13 kids! with another on the way! The Easter Bunny himself even made an appearance…

12 of the 13…Samantha wouldn’t go near the bunny!

The kids dyed eggs while the dads hid plastic eggs in the front yard and across the street at the school.

When it was time for the hunt, the dads gave the explanation and then they were off!

The “little kids” hunted in the front yard while the “big kids” went across the street to the school where there were a TON of eggs hidden all over, including two big golden eggs I had brought that each had $10 in them! After a few minutes, the kids found all of the regular eggs but no one had found either of the golden eggs! After a few hints and maybe a few elbows thrown, the prize eggs were found. Ginny Grace found one and Sara Francis snagged the other…

Maxwell was already not feeling great from allergies at the ball park, combine that with a scrape on his leg and not finding the golden egg and we had one unhappy camper. Spencer made up for it by being super happy about all the jelly beans he was getting to eat! ha!

We ended up all ordering pizza and keeping the kids up too late but it was totally worth it. It was such a fun night and made me so excited about  our “new” neighborhood!

Throwing it back to the 17th with green on St. Patrick’s Day…

Baby loved that she had pockets!

I loved that she looked so cute in my old dress!  🙂
