Easter Morning

The boys were so excited to see what was in their Easter baskets!  Bubbles, books, candy, chalk, beach toys, water squirters, swim trunks and hula hoops!

Now that they have checked out everything in their baskets, it's time to search for some eggs!

The boys in their Easter bests!  They were some what cooperative for a few pictures with Mom, Dad and Grandma. 

The boys, doing what they do naturally!

Coloring Eggs

Grandma Bonnie spent Easter with us this year.  She arrived just in time to color Easter eggs with us!  

Everyone had their own way of taking the eggs out of the colors.  Nick and Sam preferred to use the metal scooper, 

while Ben preferred to just use his hands!

For the record, the green did wash off of Ben's hands later that night in the tub!

All of the beautiful eggs!

Nick, recovering from some serious egg dying business!  He and Sam love to sit this way in the chair.  I have finally documented it with a photo!

The kids were so excited for the Easter Bunny's arrival!  They had their baskets all set out and ready for the floppy eared little critter.  

The boys thought the bunny might need a little snack!

Easter Egg Hunt

The day before Easter we attended an Easter Party at our friends the Miller's home.  They had an incredible Easter Egg hunt for all of the kiddos, lots of delicious food and good times for all.

A visit from our cousins

The last week of March we had some visitors!  Aunt Ellen and her 3 boys Daniel, Nathan and Andrew came for a visit from Illinois.  The boys were on spring break, unfortunately Indiana didn't offer any spring weather for them.  We got 9" of snow while they were here!  

The kids had so much fun all together!  We went swimming at an indoor water park, sledding, of course! and spent a day at a trampoline park.  I don't have any pictures from swimming or jumping on the trampolines, because Ellen and I were busy swimming and jumping too!

All of the boys.  That's a whole lot of boys!  And boy were they loud!

Aunt Ellen from (Alaska) Illinois!  

The snow was beautiful and only lasted a few days before it melted away.  

What a fun time with the Fishman family!  Nick, Sam and Ben truly adore their cousins, and Ellen and I had some good sister time together.

While Mommy is away...

...the boys will play!

I attended a mom's conference for a weekend in March and Daddy was in charge of the kids.  They had so much fun together!  

They went to an Indiana Ice Hockey game,

enjoyed slushies, 

and watched the Zamboni at work!

All of that sure did tucker out Sam and Nick!  Ben, I hear was still going strong!

The following day was spent at the Children's Museum!

Superhero Nick.

Digging for dinosaur fossils.

It was a fun weekend for all!

I'm pretty sure the boys are making plans for their next "all boys weekend"!
