Easter~

Our Easter holiday was wonderful this year. We were spoiled and got to spend the day with both sides of the family, the Kenworthys and the Pintlers. Shelly and Rick were generous enough to open their home to my huge family which made the day so fun. We got the best of both worlds:) The weekend began with, of course, dying Easter eggs. We skipped this event last year because Kohen was still a little young and it would have been more crazy and messy than fun and enjoyable. But this year was great. Both boys really got into it, and surprisingly, we had a very minimal mess when all was said and done. They turned out pretty cute...

Kason was sick of pictures.....


Sunday we got to do the "traditional" egg hunt...I use the word traditional loosely, because this was not like the egg hunts I remember as a kid. Shelly and Rick, along with the help of Renne' (family friend) filled nearly 500 eggs! The eggs were filled with candy, money, gift cards, and little gifts (redeemable tickets for gifts). Kason and Kohen both made out like bandits, finding an iTunes gift card, a substantial amount of cash and cute little sandpails and shovels. Not to mention the enormous amount of candy...




The hunt was followed by an incredibly delicious dinner with all the Easter fixins and getting to spend time with loved ones. It was a perfect day....we are so very grateful to have such a wonderful family, we are truly blessed!!
