Free Range Family

We had a wonderful Easter weekend! How was yours? The kids went on two egg hunts and saw a whole bunch of our family members. It was great! Be prepared for a bit of a photo dump, I took so many photos from this weekend lol. Saturday morning after Alan's last soccer game, my mom took the kids to an Easter egg hunt. I had to work, so I was so happy she took the kids too. Both Alan and Anna did their own egg hunts for their age group. Alan didn't get too many eggs actually but Anna found quite a few. She was so nice and shared with him though! Alan sliding down the inflatable slide After the egg hunts, Alan and Anna played a few games and went on the inflatable things before leaving for lunch. Alan went on the slide a few times and Anna played in the bouncy house. She was silly though and would only sit, said my mom. Apparently she wanted other kids to bounce her lol. What a goof ball! :) They all had a great time though. Anna and Uncle Kalvin after their Easter egg hu...

The kids and I have had quite the Easter filled week this past week. Alan's preschool had their Easter party and Easter egg hunt on Tuesday. And We paid Mister E.B. a visit on Wednesday. Easter is obviously this Sunday but we had to have some celebrating during the week too! Happy spring and hoppy Easter! Alan's preschool class had their Easter party this Tuesday. As per usual, Miss Anna and I stayed for the beginning half of the party. They all started out making little Easter egg craft with chickens inside. Even Anna made one! Hers was mostly purple and pink, but it was cute! She enjoyed coloring and creating with her brother and his classmates. I bet she cannot wait to go to preschool herself! :) Oh how the second child always develops faster then the first! Silly children! The kids, working on their crafts After making their eggs, everyone sat down to listen to Miss Davis read an Easter bunny story. Anna obviously HAD to do what all the big kids were doing, especial...

Friday, we took everyone to get Easter Bunny pictures before Aunt Natalie and Jake left to head back home. I was nervous about Alan being horrified of the bunny because he had never taken pictures with him, or even seen him. But he did fantastic!

Alan, Uncle Kalvin and Aunt April each got to dye nine eggs, except one of Alan's broke so we headed home with only eight. But Alan did a great job slowly setting the eggs into the dye and making sure not to splash it everywhere, which I was endlessly grateful for as it was vinegar mostly lol. The eggs turned out vibrant and beautiful and Alan really enjoyed dying them almost all by himself. Our finished Easter eggs. :) Yesterday Alan and I went to two different Easter egg hunts with Grandma Melanie, Aunt April and Uncle Kalvin. We were supposed to meet up with Kelsie and Kelton but they had to switch plan...

Happy Friday everyone! I am so excited for today, we are taking my photos for the Traveling Red Dress and then we are taking Alan and the boys to see the Easter Bunny. Then we are doing some Easter shopping yay lol! :) Here's Five Question Friday!! Would you prefer having people over for dinner or going to their house? I prefer to go over to people's houses for dinner. Simply because my house is not really my house lol. It belongs to my toddler. Just about every inch of my house has something that belongs to Alan, whether it be toys or clothing, etc. Its not like my house is always messy (though there are days were it gets that way lol) but it is just full of toddler stuff. So having dinner has been a no go at our house. But we sure love going over to people's houses and are always willing to bring a side dish or drinks! :D Favorite Bible verse and why? Oooh, sorry can't help you with this one. But since I am Buddhist, how about a share a good mantr...
