Easter 2010

We had a great Easter. After church we enjoyed a good meal at my in-laws with everyone there including my parents. It was nice to all get together at one time. It allowed all the grandparents and Aunt Callie and Uncle Zach to be able to watch their girls first egg hunt. The weather wasn't bad out so we spent a lot of the day outside playing and running in their backyard.
The girls were so fun to watch and hunt eggs with. We have never practiced hunting eggs but somehow they knew what to do and knew that there was candy inside each one. Lexyn would pick up as many eggs as her arms could hold, about 4 or 5, before she would finally empty them into her basket. Brittyn on the other hand, could care less about the egg. She would pick one up and open it, get the candy out, throw the egg down and run off with the candy so that we couldn't take it away from her. It ended up being a game for her to run from us. They were cute and had the best time.

They both loaded up. Aunt Kelly brought over her Easter basket and gifts for the girls Saturday night. She got them some cookies, candy, huge balls, plate, cups, and matching utensils, Little People horse carriage with castle building blocks, some stuffed bunnies and ducks, a few books and a pop-up tent. Neno and Papaw (Ben's parents) got them an Easter basket with an etchasketch, magnadoodle, plate, stuffed duck and cotton candy. Ben and I got them some chocolate, cotton candy, ring pops, stuffed duck, dried apples, rice krispy treats, bubble gun, and plastic golf club and ball. And their Gamma and Papa (my parents) decided to hold their Easter basket until this week so that they could spread out the gifts since they had already gotten so much.

Neno bought the girls a cupcake covered in icing. After lunch we stripped them down and let them enjoy. Brittyn dug in hands, mouth and all. Lexyn was a little more worried about getting her hands dirty, so she dug in with her mouth. It was so funny to watch them enjoy the cupcake but then they hated having dirty hands.

You got an awesome shot of Brittyn running away with her egg and candy in hand. Your camera takes awesome pictures. I am glad that those sparkly sandals worked out for something!
