Easter Weekend

Saturday we met up with Stephanie, Bryan and the kids to go to an Eggstranvangaza at a local church. It turns out so did the rest of the city and everyone they knew. Wow! I couldn't believe how many people were there.



Not sure what face im making here. Anyway, Gage was so excited to see all of the balloons and eggs.

Gage loved the egg hunt.





But, he wasn't too excited about the 10 egg limit. We probably should have gone to the 3-5 year hunt instead of birth to 2. But the candy inside make things a little better.

From there we rode the train.




The train took us up to the other side of the church where a special guest was waiting on us.




The Easter bunny! Gage was so excited I thought he was going to jump of the train to get to him.

After the train ride we passed by a coloring area which as soon as Gage saw this he started screaming "Colors! Colors! Colors!". So of course we stopped and colored for awhile.









Gage and Dakota colored to their hearts content.

After leaving the Eggstranvangaza we went to Grandma's for Easter dinner.








Of course we hunted eggs yet again. Which had even more candy. I think Gage has eaten more than his weight in candy.

Sunday morning Kelly and I were woken up by shouts of "Monkey! Monkey". Gage had gotten up and gone in the den to get his new shoes that light up (which is a whole other story) and found his Easter basket and the Curious George that "bunny" brought him. He completely missed the basket full of item next to it in his excitement. So once it had been established that the bunny had brought him monkey we went through his basket. In my half awake state I forgot all about taking pictures. I'm sure monkey will make several appearances in photos to come.

This afternoon we headed over to Stephanie and Bryan's to let the kids play. Lily and Dakota would hide the eggs and Gage would hunt them. They had a blast playing and hunting eggs. Gage is wore out. I'm hoping he takes a good long nap









We hope everyone had a great weekend too!
