Happy EASTER 2017!

We had a fun Easter this year.  The weekend leading up to Easter was full of fun house guests that were in town for a wedding.  The Judd family (Ben has such a crush on Adele!) and Jen Nuckols Bromley.  The weekend also included a chance to see Emma and Alayne in Everett High's The Little Mermaid.  Which was fabulous (and I mean really really good!)

We had Egg Palooza where there were eggs to dye, color and create (with Perlers, which no one ended up doing--save that one for next year).



Somehow I didn't get a picture of Adele, who dyed two eggs and promptly ate both.  Adorable.  

This was actually at the Circus Arts night.  Jen got to come and see Libby perform!

Jen brought all the kids Minnesota themed shirts!  Sarah was super excited to wear hers on Friday this week for Twin day!  

The traditional pre-egg hunt photo.  These kids are all getting so big! 

And the Egg Master Maren.  Each kid got to find 22 eggs this year!  










The table is ready!  

This year the bunny brought eggs full of Legos again.  We had to help him put together his bunny friend! Also, Ben was so excited about the Pokemon pajamas.  He wanted to wear them for 36 straight hours.  I'm such a mean mom that I said no! 
When Sarah saw her basket she said, "Mom, the Easter bunny brought me too much!"  And it was true.  The bunny was going to bring just a movie to each with a little candy.  Then it became a movie and a t-shirt....and pajamas...and a swim shirt....and an action figure.  Yeah, it got a little excessive.  But gotta get that spring wardrobe going since it will be spring here eventually, right?
