Easter 2016

Justin started off our Easter weekend with some bunny pancakes:)

Andie likes her pancakes with strawberries and whip cream - just like Mommy:)

Caden and Landen prefer syrup like Daddy:)

The Easter bunny came!

Caden's:)

Andie's

Landen's

Caden was in a silly mood, so the next three pictures look a lot alike, but his look gets better:)

Mouthful of jelly beans!

Searching for his eggs!

Blue Peep:)

Cadbury Cream Egg for little miss!

Green Peep for Lando!

Double-fisting!

The Bernstein Bears have a great book that explains the Easter story! We read the Easter story in our Jesus Storybook Bible each day the week leading up to Easter, and this version was a nice compliment to what they had learned:) 

Helping Cade with his Qixels and Andie with her water beads!

Lando and Daddy making breakfast!

There was A LOT of snow, so Justin and the littles spent a while outside in their pajamas and snow clothes!

Moosemurt!

Dying eggs! Don't worry, I eventually showered:)

The extra dye was fun to spread in the snow!

Caden and his snorkeler!

The finished product! It's a little difficult to make pretty eggs with three small children......

We had both sides of our extended family over for dinner! I wasn't so great at getting pictures of everyone...maybe I'll get better at that sometime soon? Bryan's girlfriend Jayme brought the confetti eggs and Caden was having a great time cracking them on everyone's heads!

Our little family! Both versions of this picture are equally "good":)

Thanks to Brando for sharing TT and Em with us!

The boys hung out around the beer and grill:)

Caden had SO much fun with Uncle John!

TT made my carrot cake recipe and it was DELICIOUS! TT's cake decorating skills are top-notch:)  We also had coconut cream pie and chocolate chip cookies right from the oven....and some BBQ and sides, but dessert is what's really important:)
