Easter Eggstravaganza

Get ready for a lot of pictures!  We had a lot of fun over our Easter weekend... first off was Easter Egg Coloring on Friday night with Aunt Jess, Ammon, Aunt LoLo and cousin Nie Nie (Annie to those of you not in on her knickname situation, which has not really caught on).  Erin and Ammon had fun just generally making a mess.  We had three different kinds of egg dying kits, but Erin just likes to keep dipping and painting until they are all sort of the same muddy grey color.  She has fun doing it, though.

Annie really got into it and made some pretty intricate and interesting eggs, my favorite was what she called "fire".  Erin really wanted to make all of Annie's into her messy grey ones, but we managed to prevent that.

I guess putting newspaper on the table just really didn't prevent much mess.

Next on Saturday we went to Aunt Terry's house for the Big Hunt.  There is always so much candy at this event; luckily Erin is not a pro yet.

Gma loved Rylee's reaction to the grass, she pulled her feet up at first, but then she decided it was fine and just stood on it and smiled.

Look at her "trucker butt", every part of her is adorable.

A nice action shot, she got pretty good by the end, but Jackson beat her to most of the loot, thankfully.

Gpa had a lot of fun helping her find things.

Rylee just chilled on her blanket and was happy. Don't worry, she has sunblock on.

Next was the visit from the Easter Bunny!  He likes to be artistic when he comes to our house.  Here is the before shot.

Then we went to Grandma Ericksen's house for Easter Dinner, yum.  I tried to get some good pictures of Erin and Rylee in their adorable outfits, but Erin wouldn't cooperate, surprise surprise.  So, you just get Rylee.  She's cute enough, though.

Ammon got these cool touchable bubbles in his easter basket and he and Erin had a blast catching them.  Unfortunately I did not get good pictures of this. 

We had so much fun this year, and we're looking forward to next year!
