Easter

We had a great Easter weekend! Yesterday we dyed eggs. This year we chose to dye eggs in the bathtub to reduce the mess in the kitchen. It worked great! Ryan had fun coloring the eggs. Grandpa Bill came for the day on Sunday. We all went to church, had an Easter egg hunt, ate a big meal and played outside (the sun was finally out!). The Easter bunny left Ryan a scavenger hunt to find his eggs. He had to follow the clues inside each egg to lead him to the next egg. His Easter basket was waiting for him at the end! It was fun and relaxing weekend!

Easter egg hunt...We lost Ryan's hot wheels truck last weekend and he kept telling us the Easter bunny would bring him a new one. The Easter bunny heard his requests as he found a truck in this egg.

Super Nanny

Last weekend we took a trip to Kansas to visit my grandma, aka Nanny to me and Super Nanny to Ryan. It was her 92nd birthday and my family all gets together to celebrate. We drove our NEW VAN 10 hours to Kansas on Thursday, spent Friday and Saturday there and came home Sunday. Yes, I said NEW VAN! As a side note, we bought a new Honda Odyssey about a month ago. I love it! Anyways, the boys were great travelers! We had a great visit with my grandma and saw alot of family. My grandma met Tyler for the first time. I think she really enjoyed hanging out with the boys. It was nice to get another 4 generation picture with my grandma, my dad, me and my boys. We were also able to hang out with my cousin and her kids. Hannah is 3 and Grant is 2 weeks younger than Tyler. The kids had lots of fun playing together. Here are some pics from our weekend...

It is almost impossible to get Ryan and Tyler (and my grandma) looking at the camera at the same time :)
