Easter Weekend 2011

Easter weekend was a great weekend in Hope. We had multiple egg hunts (at home, at church, from the Easter bunny). We started out Saturday morning going to the church for the hunt and games. They played multiple games, bounce house, Easter story, cookies, and an egg hunt. Turner was not a fan at all of the Easter bunny. Maggie sat up there on her lap and Turner wanted down as fast as possible. So we went outside for the hunt, Maggie and Turner were ready. Turner found one egg and was done! He sat down opened the egg and worked on getting it opened. Maggie did great -- she took off and got lots of eggs with lots of candy. After the hunt we went home for lunch and Jodi and I took the two big girls to see Rio. Well we really went to see HOP but it was sold out. So we went to see RIO in 3D. Maggie and Darby didn't keep the glasses on so it was a little blurry for them but all in all it was a very cute movie.


The Coffee's came over for dinner on Saturday night. When they arrived we were all outside riding the bike and Mustang. So add two more girls to the mix and call it a blast. We had so much fun outside. It was a beautiful weekend!!! My parents street is on a small hill so they ride the bike to the top and take off going pretty fast. Maggie thought it was a blast. Jorgia figured out how to drive the Mustang. So she drove Turner around and thought she was big stuff. I love those two little girls to pieces.


The Easter Bunny made a stop at Babe and Poppy's house. I think he left so pretty neat and fun stuff. Lots of books, games, bubbles, shorts and other fun stuff. He was very good to the kids. Turner didn't even notice that he had come until Maggie woke up and we pointed it out to him. We got ready for church and took lots of pictures. They were pretty cooperative. After church we found that the bunny had left eggs in the yard. So we hunted more eggs. We had lunch and then naps!!! We just had a great relaxing Easter day!


I am also very proud to say that Maggie knows why we celebrate Easter. That makes my heart smile. It is very fun to celebrate with eggs and the bunny but the real reason is Christ. Thanks to everyone who influences Maggie and Turner.

This picture got out of order. This is what the Easter Bunny left. Turner was ready for the Easter Egg hunt.
