Weekend Activities

We have had a great weekend. The boys didn't have school Friday or tomorrow. We have just hung out and it has been great. Friday we slept in, cleaned, played, and ran a few errands. Yesterday a bunch of the same with a trip to Studio Movie Grill to watch Monsters vs Aliens added in. Today we met up with my brother and his family for lunch (they were in town for LTC) and have since been napping. Tomorrow my mom flies in to visit for a few days. It has been a great relaxing long weekend. So here's the pictures of our easter activities.

Yesterday we made rice krispie treats in the shape of eggs and then dipped them in chocolate and sprinkles. We decided we need to do this every year. Ryland said we even need to make different shapes for every holiday. I guess this one was a winner.

Of course we decorated a few eggs also.

Leland and the kids went to the store without me the other day and came home with some tulips. They hadn't bloomed yet at the time so it has been fun watching them open up.

Sleepy Girls and Egg Hunt

Yesterday was a nice day. Leland judged at a UIL meet (earning $250) while the kids and I stayed home watching tv, cleaning, playing, etc. I didn't worry about naps because I was hoping for an early bed time. Apparently they couldn't wait.

I first found Reese asleep on her bedroom floor with a toy in her hand. She woke up scared about 45 minutes later so I moved her next to Leland in the chair. She continued her nap with Roscoe until supper time.


Next was Raylee. She is a slow eater (when it is something she doesn't think she likes). This is how we found her after awhile. Leland just gently moved her to bed for the night.

Today was the sandwich potluck and egg hunt after services. Of course, yesterday was a beautiful day, perfect for an egg hunt. Today was in the 40's with a high wind. So our hunting lasted about 5 minutes because we were so cold. But the kids were very happy with their collection and the goodies inside.
