Well the last few weeks the kids have been spending alot of time on our new playground set. We can call it new even though it is not, we were lucky enough to get this GREAT playground set for Free! Yes, I said Free! A guy Clint works with said if we were willing to go take it down we could have it, so we took that opportunity. The girls have a ball on it.


We were in Cal-Ranch the other day lookin' at stuff for the yard and we saw this swing so we ended up going a few weeks later and buying it. The first one to try it out was Dakota because she thinks everything is hers. My Horsey! My Horsey! She repeats several times, especially when her sisters are on it.

Dakota enjoying herself. This girl has no fear.

Makayla actually got going pretty good on it. She just started swinging her legs just like how you would swing on a swing.

Kassidee got upset because Makayla was pushing her way to hard which she really wasn't she
was just being a chicken. She only lasted on it for a few seconds then I had to go get her down.
I just had to post these hilarious picture's of her getting upset.

EASTER WEEKEND!

I GUESS YOU CAN SAY THAT WE WERE CELEBRATING EASTER THIS WHOLE PAST WEEKEND, WE STARTED OUT ON FRIDAY AFTERNOON WE MADE EASTER COOKIES. MAKAYLA AND KASSI GOT CREATIVE WHILE DAKOTA MOSTLY JUST CARED ABOUT EATING THEM.

GETTING STARTED....
SEE I TOLD YOU SHE JUST WANTED TO EAT THEM!
THE EVIDENCE IS UNBELIEVABLE.


KASSI JUST WAS ADMIRING EVERY ONE'S BUT SHE WAS SO CUTE SHE TOOK HER TIME BEING VERY CAREFUL ON WHERE TO PUT THE ICING.

EVERY TIME MAKAYLA CHOSE A COOKIES THEY ENDED UP BREAKING ON HER, IT WAS SO FUNNY. SHE TRIED SO HARD NOT TO BUT SHE ALWAYS MANAGED IT.

WHEN ALL SAID AND DONE I THINK THAT THIS WAS THERE FAVORITE PART ABOUT THE ADVENTURE OF MAKING THE COOKIES. ESPECIALLY FOR MAKAYLA THIS IS HER FAVORITE, IF YOU CAN'T TELL IN THE PICTURE.

SATURDAY.......

THEY GOT TO SEE THE EASTER BUNNY AND GO TO THE CITY PARK TO FIND EASTER EGGS. AS SOON AS WE WERE DONE WITH THE HUNT MAKAYLA GOT IN THE CAR AND SAID, "MOM, THAT'S NOT THE REAL EASTER BUNNY." I SAID WHY DO YOU SAY THAT? SHE SAID, BECAUSE I CAN SEE STUFF HANGING OUT OF HIS BACK. OH CRAP! SO THEN WE SAID, HOW DO YOU KNOW WHAT THE EASTER BUNNY LOOKS LIKE? I DON'T BUT I CAN JUST TELL. LEAVE IT TO HER TO NOTICE THE LITTLEST THING. SO THEN WE TOLD HER THAT THE EASTER BUNNY NEEDED A LITTLE HELP THIS YEAR SO HE HAD THAT BUNNY COME AND HELP HIM. SHE WAS OKAY WITH THAT. SHE IS ONLY 5 AND MAN I NEVER THOUGHT IT WAS TIME FOR THE QUESTIONS.

KASSI AND MAKAYLA WAITING FOR THE EASTER EGG HUNT TO START. IT WAS SO COLD THAT MORNING, IF YOU LOOK REALLY CLOSE TO THE PICTURE YOU CAN SEE THE FROZEN GRASS BELOW THERE FEET. I TOLD THE GIRLS TO DANCE AROUND TO KEEP THEM WARM BUT THEY DIDN'T LISTEN TO ME.

THIS WAS WHEN THE HUNT WAS OVER AND THE GIRLS WERE DONE FINDING THE EGGS. DAKOTA JUST KEPT SAYING, "HOLD YOU MOMMY" OR "HOLD YOU DADDY" IT COLD, IT COLD. THEY HAD A BLAST THOUGH.



SATURDAY NIGHT........

COLORING THE EGGS...

WELL TO ME IT SEEMED LIKE THEY WERE A LITTLE HUNGRY CAUSE THEY GOT TO THE POINT WHERE THEY JUST WANTED TO EAT THE EGGS. (YOU WILL SEE IN THE PICTURE'S BELOW) NOTHING BEATS BEING ABLE TO HAVE THIS TIME TO SPEND TOGETHER DOING SOMETHING FUN AND EXCITING, THE GIRLS LOVED IT.

I THINK MAKAYLA MANAGED TO CRAM THAT EGGS RIGHT IN HER MOUTH. I THOUGHT SHE WAS GOING TO THROW-UP.

KASSI IN DEEP THOUGHT. YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT THIS GIRL IS THINKING.

STILL CLEANING THE EGG OUT OF HER TEETH. YUMMY! YUMMY!

SHE WAS SO IMPRESSED WITH HER EGGS.

AND THEN THERE IS DAKOTA SHE WANTED TO SLAM THE EGGS TOGETHER TO CRACK THEM SO SHE CAN EAT THEM. SHE RUINED ABOUT 3 OR 4 OF THEM.
WHO CARES ABOUT COLORING THEM, I JUST WANT TO EAT THEM.
RIGHT!
FOR HER ANYWAYS..

BELOW IS ONE OF THE EGGS.

SUNDAY.......


MAKAYLA IS GETTING TO THE AGE WHERE EACH HOLIDAY IS GETTING MORE
AND MORE EXCITING. SHE WOKE UP THAT MORNING SO FULL OF ENERGY I
NEVER THOUGHT SHE HAD IN HER. SHE RAN IN TO ME AND CLINT'S ROOM SO EXCITED YELLING THE EASTER BUNNY CAME, THE EASTER BUNNY CAME, SHE
EVEN HAD TO GET KASSIDEE UP AND GOING. ISN'T IT JUST SO FUN TO SEE THE EXCITEMENT IN A CHILD'S EYES WHEN THEY NOTICE WHAT DAY IT IS?

KASSI WAS SO EXCITED TO SEE STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE COLORING BOOK IN HER BASKET, THAT WAS THE FIRST THING SHE PULLED OUT.

DAKOTA IS STILL AT THE AGE WHERE SHE IS WONDERING WHAT'S GOING ON BUT SHE WAS STILLING EXCITED ABOUT THE EGGS. YOU SEE AT OUR HOUSE THE EASTER BUNNY HIDES THE REAL EGGS THE GIRLS COLOR AND LOOK WHAT DAKOTA MANAGED TO FIND.

THE EGGS IS RIGHT IN FRONT OF THERE FACE IT TOOK THEM FOREVER TO SPOT THE EGG WE FINALLY HAD TO POINT IT OUT. IT WAS PRETTY FUNNY. IT WAS A GOOD DAY THOUGH THE KIDS GOT OVERWHELMED WITH SUGAR AND EXCITEMENT.

WE EVEN GOT TO TALK ABOUT WHY WE CELEBRATE EASTER.
I HOPE EVERY ONE HAD A GREAT AND AMAZING EASTER AS WE DID.

HAPPY EASTER!
