Coloring Eggs & the Easter Bunny

You gotta color some Easter eggs!!!
Hadlee loved decorating her eggs with lots of stickers!!!
This was some serious business...
every bunny sticker HAD to be used!!! Forget the bunny, rainbow and flower stickers. Walker is a Lightnin' McQueen Man all the way!!! I.Love.These.Little.Hands.Ta Da...
Just some Bunny Love thrown in for fun...
(Lindsay, your treat has obviously been well-worn & loved!!!)
Last Wednesday it was off to the mall to see
the Easter Bunny!!!
We had to stop off in the dressing room to
change Hadlee into her Easter dress.
(I wanted to make sure she got two wears out of her dress!)
My children look nothing like me...I am thankful
they got my hubby's looks, well, because I think
he is a cutie patoooooooooty. Anyways, one thing
I know they DID get from me is the ability to have
fun anywhere, anytime. Yep, that's me!!!
Prime example in the Dillard's dressing room...
Give the child a three-way mirror, and he is having a BALL!Add in a spunky little sister, and life is GRAND!!!
After about 30 minutes of mirror time (literally!),
The Beautiful Bunny Princess was ready...
We had a small photo shoot, pre-Bunny.
To my local, long time friends...I
am totally seeing Richland Mall Fashion Board
in their future!!!
Walker told Hadlee on the way over to NOT
ruin this day by crying!!! (Think back to Santa!).
Luckily, Haddie was HAPPY
to meet the Easter Bunny!
I couldn't stop taking pictures. Come on,
I had the Cookie Company as bribery!!!We also had to enjoy the play area...
even mommy did!!!
You don't even say...look
who just had to show up at the mall that day!!!To my Little Loves...
I hope you always enjoy life!
You certainly make my days FUN!!!

Hoodie Hunt

I love a tradition...
especially one like the Neighborhood
Easter Egg Hunt!!! Walker & Hadlee were ready...
True Little Hoodies!!!Of course mommy had to make them pose a few times...Luckily this little chickadee LOVES to pose...Just melt my heart..........why don't ya?!?We have done an egg hunt in our neighborhood
since Walker's first Easter.
I don't have a 'garage door picture' from
every year...but almost!
Here's a little look back...
(I'm thinking 2005 here)
2006...Haddie Girl's first Easter
And here you have this year...
our 2009 bunch!One more look back...I can't resist!
Look at Walker & our next door neighbor Jillian!!!
Back to 2009...
I love these kids and their families!!!Our newest Hoodie...at his first Easter egg hunt!
Look who got to hold him for much of the time!!!I thank God for the sweet mommies/friends
that He gave me as neighbors. I wish I had
taken pictures of all of them that day!Miss Priss was all about getting
her some Little Hoodie Lovin'...Carson (below) and Dylan (above) seemed to be
playing hard-to-get?!?

BUT NOT THIS ONE...

Sweet Landry Love!!!!!!

Check out Landry & Haddie in this picture.........................Little Love Birds!!!

I just have to give a little shout out of love!!!
Our Easter egg hunt is planned by
this beautiful mommy right here...
Robin, aka RoRo (to Haddie)!
Sweet Robin organizes it and brings goodies!!!
Every neighborhood needs a Robin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(And I'm not talking about a bird!!! hee hee!)

I'm not really sure why I don't have more individual pics of the cutie pie girls and the hunka hunk boys. Perhaps I was too busy holding my new baby love OR taking pictures of my favorite little bunny...

My dear friend, Jeanne (garage door owner!), captured this sweet photo of the three oldest girls...

Beautiful weather, sweet friends, precious children, candy, and celebrating Easter. Doesn't get much better than this!!!

Walker's Hunt at School

My favorite picture...
LOOK at Walker ready to HUNT!!!
He led the charge!!!
He found it necessary to slide into several eggs... Such a sweet class...

Walker's class had eggs in an incubator & watched them hatch last week! So cool! He was showing me the baby chicks & told me one was named 'Walker Jr.' (Wonder who named that one?)Buddies...
ALWAYS (mis)behaving!?!Cutie pie girlfriend...as in a friend who is a girl!!!Have I mentioned that Walker has the sweetest kindergarten teacher EVER?!?
Have I mentioned that I think I have the sweetest boy in kindergarten?!?

There is something so fun about having a child in kindergarten. Their enthusiasm & innocence is so sweet! I love being a room mom, too! I'm just crazy like that.

P.S. ~ One more official hunt to share ... the Hoodie Hunt! Plus about three more Easter posts after that. Easter is well worth it, wouldn't you say?!?

He Lives

"He lives, He lives, Christ Jesus lives today!
He walks with me and He talks with me
Along life's narrow way.
He lives, He lives, salvation to impart!
You ask me how I know He lives:
He lives within my heart."

I loved singing this song at church
this morning!!!

I have more Easter pictures and
posts than should be legal...
but I'm just too tired tonight.
(I couldn't resist posting a couple faves though!)
It has been a wonderful weekend
with all of our families.
I couldn't be more thankful or more blessed!

"In all the world around me
I see His loving care..."
Happy Easter!!!
