Easter Sunday

 The Easter Bunny came to visit and left lots of goodies

 Madison wanted to lay it all out and see what everyone got. Then she wanted to take a picture. photo by Madison. :)

Then we went to wake this sleepy head up

We got ready and packed and headed to church for the 9:30 service. 

 My 3 babies

 LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this one of my big kids

After church we headed to Celina for lunch and an Easter egg hunt! The kids always love going because they get to play with all of their cousins

 the kids waiting patiently to get out the doors to get their eggs

 Ross was super sweet and helped Cooper get his eggs. He even carried him so they could go faster. :)

 

 Cooper got the first swing at the pinata!

 Showing off her full basket

The girls somehow made it into the rain puddles later in the day. They had a blast splashing around in their pretty dresses!

Coloring Easter Eggs

Between riding bikes we decided to color our Easter eggs. Madison and I bought a new contraption to color eggs in. You put the egg and the dye in this bucket and then you hit the top over and over and it spins the egg around. I didn't love it but the kids had fun with it. That's all that matters right??

 They are all hot and sweaty from playing outside!

After their baths they decided to make them tye-dye and put purple on all of them!

Bike riding skills

 Trent decided it was time to take Madison's training wheels off and teach her how to ride her bike without them. They went out early in the afternoon and didn't have much success. Madison was nervous and wasn't too interested. He said she would be doing great and he'd take his hands off and as soon as she realized he wasn't holding on she'd stop and fall over. They came in for a break and we decorated Easter eggs and then later that evening we went back out! She did it on the first try!! Yet another accomplishment that makes me want to scream "stop growing up"! My baby girl lost two teeth and learned how to ride her bike all in a weeks time.

 so proud of herself!

She loves riding her bike. She's getting so good that she's about to start riding with me when I go on my jogs! I have a feeling that I am going to have a hard time keeping up with her.
