Easter festivities galore

It has been a crazy few days of Easter fun!  We are all pooped, but at least I have some pictures to share.  The kids had Easter egg hunts with their classes at school on Thursday, but I was not there to capture the precious moments....or battle over the eggs, as the case may be.  Friday, they were off of school and spent the morning at the park with dad and napped with me in the afternoon.  Well, the little one did, at least.  Saturday, we had all of my family and all of Kidd's family over for the Easter Egg-stravaganza at our club.  Crazy chaos, but fun too.  I wish I had gotten pics of more than just our kids, but everyone was all over the place!

I normally hate pictures that reflect the torturing of small children, but in this case it was so funny because Delaney would wave at the bunny from far off and even up close.  But, as soon as she got within 4 feet of him, she freaked out.  We thought if she could sit in Justus' lap, she would be ok.  And she almost was.  Almost.


Having hunted at school a few days earlier, she was starting to get the hang of it.

She's very big on encouragement.  For herself.

Justus did great in the 4-6 year old hunt.  It was a little more competitive this year.  Last year, he got one egg and was satisfied.  I think he has the basic idea now.

 Justus was very good about sitting for pictures.  Too bad his sister took off before we got this one.


Sunday morning, and look who again has no patience for pictures today.  Maybe she knew we were late for church.  Again.

Justus is so sweet.  He sees Delaney not cooperating, so he wants to act silly so as to be helpful. 
How nice of him, huh?



Too sweet.

I posted the better other pic separately, but I always love the before/after shot because it's so completely different from the happy, posed, attentive kids.  Love them just the same!

We had a great time with friends and family, and hope everyone else did too!!
