Easter Weekend

Good Friday was spent at Steve & Toiya's house for the Wilson Family.  They have a beautiful backyard that fit all of us with room to spare!

After having a picnic, the kids had an Easter Egg hunt.

Rigby & the other 5-6 yr olds are off!

There goes Olivia!

Lainee was so fast I only got her from behind!

I may have forgot their baskets & they may have had to use plastic sacks but they are still cute!

The big kids were playing on the old tractor.

Good job girls!

Then on Sunday after church, the kids discovered that the Easter Bunny had been to our house!

Never mind the mess that we call the back porch!  Still haven't got that done yet! 

Of course we had to get some posed pictures!  This is one of my favorites!  Too bad Lainee isn't looking!

Another fave!

The girls!

And the boys!

Now some individuals.

(sidenote: my old neighbors delivered my rock bench to me from my old house!  I have taken all my Easter pics on that bench since Lainee was little!  So glad to have the bench!)

And the colored eggs from this year!  They turned out really cool! Gotta love the all natural way of coloring! (red root & onion peels for color & petals, flowers, weeds for design & then wrapped in thread & boiled.)

Another great Easter!

Kite Festival & Preschool Fieldtrip

A couple of weekends ago was the Kite Festival & Lainee did all of her reading so we went to redeem her chart for a kite.  They had a fire truck for the kids to climb through & look at.

The girls got to bring their friend Ivie from our old neighborhood.

Liv & Ivie getting ready to ride!

Lainee was all smiles the whole time!

Even upside down!

Ivie got a little scared during the ride & thought that she might puke so they got stopped but she was ok & by the end said "I'm never getting off!"

Liv was brave the whole time which surprised me!

(Rigby was off doing some bounce houses with Trent so he didn't get any pictures!)

Rigby's preschool class got to go to a kindergarten class to get ready for next year. 

Rigby & Elijah, best buddies or maybe troublemakers!  Elijah has definitely helped Rigby become more boyish!

Then we went to the park & had lunch & a fun little egg hunt.

We are sure going to miss our wonderful teachers but are so excited for kindergarten!
