We started off by attending the Easter Party our community put on. The party started at 9 am and though we attempted to arrive at 9 it was about 9:20 before we got there (it seems that having three children and getting them all dressed and in the car is more difficult 2). Not to worry the egg hunt was scheduled for 9:30 so we were there in plenty of time!
While waiting for the egg hunt:
Asher slept.
Jude and Shiloh rode on the Thomas the Train train. Unfortunately all my pics of them on the train are terrible. Can't see them because they are all shadowed...
At 9:30 the egg hunt for 1-2 year olds began on the playground. After the 1-2 year olds were done there was a hunt for the 3-5 year olds.
Shiloh picking up the eggs. At first he was confused but he caught on pretty quickly and started gathering up those eggs.
Determined to get those eggs!
Jude waiting for his turn.
Look at him go!

Because there were so many kids in the 3-5 year old group the organizers decided to put more eggs out and have an all ages free for all in order to allow the 3-5's to get more eggs.
After hunting eggs, playing on the playground and chatting with friends we loaded up the car and went home for lunch. Then it was nap time for the boys. After nap time we got dressed again (the boys don't really wear clothes when they are at home...) and went to Granny's house for a family Easter Celebration and Birthday gathering for Charity.
We hunted eggs. Including the "big" kids! And we got cash in the eggs! I think my Granny, I mean the Easter Bunny Rocks! We read the Easter story to the kids from the Jesus Story Book Bible and I almost cried while reading it. Really if you don't have this bible go buy it. Then we ate fajitas - yummy! After dinner we sang happy birthday to Charity and ate a delicious ice cream cake that Rachel made - OMG sooooooo good!!!!!!!!
Jude and Haylyn hunting eggs. Look at that block. Well done Jude. Look don't judge me in an egg hunt it is every man or woman for themselves and Haylyn had Jeremy coaching her on - which if you know Jeremy I need not say anymore.
Granny and Shiloh hunting!
Grandad pointing them out for Jude.
Failed attempt at a brother picture. Granny bought these cute shirts for the boys that say "I'm the Big Brother," "I'm the middle brother" and "I'm the little brother." Neither Jude or Shiloh would hold Asher and Shiloh started crying because he wanted to open his eggs.

Happy Birthday Aunt Charity.
