Happy Easter

 The Easter Bunny spoiled everyone. The person spoiled the most was daddy, the Easter Bunny gave him the Star Wars Millennium Falcon. I wonder if Rob is going to let the kids play with that one?

 Ellery did not find any humor in Mason wanting to wear her pink hat on the way to church. She has a very stern way of saying Mason. Is sounds very airy and a very distinct May-SON. 

 We couldn't take a family photo in front of the tree, because we cut the tree down, but we still tried to pose around the bench!

Bryson has a new "pretty" smile. He just can't resist crunching up his pretty face to smile. It also doesn't help that he has two older siblings asking for him to give them his pretty smile and then laughing hysterically at him. 

Easter Egg Coloring

We didn't get too crafty with decorating the eggs this year, we were just brave to do it with 6 kids. Scarlett didn't have that much interest, but Bryson wanted to be a part of it! Proud to announce no tears or stains from adults or children. In my opinion that is a successful egg coloring experience at the Keith family house!

Neighborhood Egg Hunt

Our neighborhood had its annual egg hunt! Bryson was really excited to hunt for eggs this year, but he wouldn't have anything to do with the Easter Bunny!

Happy Easter

One of these little ones wake me up at 6am on a regular basis, while the other one makes a frequent appearance at night for an extra hug and kiss even if it is at 3am. The one not pictured is the one who usually sleeps through the night without a peep.

I hope you enjoy your Easter and have as many blessings to count as we do!

I forgot to take a picture of the Easter baskets this year. Grandma Debbie and Papaw gave our kids some chocolate bunnies in the Easter baskets they made for them while we were visiting and I joked saying if the kids didn't eat the bunnies here I would recycle them and use them in our Easter baskets and I did just that! They had no idea, but they were a bit more insistent on eating the chocolate bunnies so maybe they did know???

Bunny Baskets

We made cute bunny baskets for friends this Easter. The sad thing is that I would have made them for Mason's school friends, but since it is a religious holiday and not celebrated at school we chose to give to other friends. The fun part was the kids getting creative with helping me make them. We only put one eye on the green eared bunnies because Mason called them Mike Wazowski bunnies from Monsters Inc. I love doing craft projects with the kids and I think they enjoy them as well!

HAPPY EASTER

Decorating Eggs and Ourselves

We have really enjoyed decorating and coloring Easter Eggs this year. It has crossed over into us decorating our bikes outside with chalk and into decorating ourselves.
I was working on catching up the blog and emails and the kids were coloring on the easel. We have colored and played with markers without incident and all of the sudden I look up to find Ellery painting her toe nails with already applied lipstick while Mason states "Mom, we are "decorating" ourselves, and check out my mustache". Thank goodness for washable markers and I am beyond happy I didn't have the cheap RoseArt markers out. Even if RoseArt says washable it should say washable in a few days not instantly like Crayola.

Easter Egg Hunt

Our neighborhood association had the yearly Easter Egg Hunt today. I don't know why they call it a hunt, all they do is place the eggs in an open field, but the kids seem to enjoy it. Last year we were 5 min late and missed the "hunt" but not this year. We predicted that Mason would only go after the blue eggs, but he proved us wrong and got a rainbow of colors, he also would bring eggs to Ellery because she was a bit overwhelmed with all the people and commotion. I think if we would have given her a piece of candy before the "hunt" or opened an egg to show her what was inside it would have changed her apprehensiveness. Ellery wanted nothing to do with the Easter Bunny while Mason would have held his hand all around the park.
