Easter Day at Home - April 1st

Easter Day I woke up really early. I mean, like, 6am. You would have thought it was Christmas Day! I woke Mom and Dad and asked them to get up to help me look for Easter Eggs. I didn't realize it but the Easter bunny hit confettie eggs. I called them 'smasher' eggs because we smashed them on our heads.

 Daddy smashed one on my head. It didn't even hurt!
 I smashed a few on Dad's head and even one on my own head.
Sock Monkey got in on the action and held one of the eggs for me to find.
The Easter Bunny hid the eggs really well this year. I couldn't even reach some of them.
I found my Easter Basket under the lavagirl hair.


 It was filled with lots of goodies.
Simba loved the pinwheel pencil.
My chocolate bunny!
E.B. even brought me some pepperoni. I love pepperoni.

I found MORE eggs!
Mom and I finished the Peep Cupcakes before we left for the Family Easter dinner. Don't they look yummy?

The Last Ski Trip of the Season - March 30th

We went up for my last ski trip of the season. Daddy was excited to see how good I was getting since he missed the second trip.



I played around on the snow hill while waiting for Dad to rent skiis.
Daddy and I rode up the chairlift together since Mom snowboarded. This way Dad could help me off the lift. We had a great time. We brought snow on the chairlift and tried to throw it at Mom. We got her a couple of times.

 It was a beautiful, warm, sunny day on the mountain.
Daddy taught me the 'hang loose' sign.
 Headed down the slope with Dad.
 If I started to slow down Dad would pull me faster and faster.
 Because I was listening so well and learned how to turn we went on other runs. We even went down the hill underneath the chairlift. I was skiing so fast sometimes and still fell down but I loved being a speed demon.

 There was a big hill so Dad helped me gather speed.


I didn't quite make it up the hill but Dad was there so I didn't fall. Like father....

 like son!

 Making a funny face at the camera as I went by!
 Flying down the run at warp speed.
Mom and me!


 Mr. Ryan was teaching other beginners how to ski. Every time I went by him I yelled to have him watch me. He told me I was a great skier and I was flying. He even ran over and gave me a hi-5 as I went by.
While Dad returned his skiis I threw snowballs at Mom while she attempted to take pictures of me!

Dying my Easter Eggs for the Easter Bunny - March 29th

After watching the movie Rise of the Guardians I really wanted to help make some great Easter Eggs for the Easter Bunny to hide.
 Waiting...um...patiently(?) for my eggs!



 
The finished product!


Hanging with my Cousins - March 24th

We had a dinner to celebrate Grandma Dee and Uncle Cory's birthdays. Mom played Cornhole with Wyatt, Uncle Cory and Uncle Ken.




Uncle Ken and Wyatt won both games. The rest of us filled up water balloons and threw them at each other.





Once we were thoroughly wet we put on some dry clothes and cuddled up to watch movies.



Henry and I decided to lay on the floor.

Waylon and Andrew cuddled on the chair.
After dinner it was time to roast marshmellows over the fire.

It started out like any normal family roasting marshmellows until someone decided to roast several marshmellows all at once and insanity ensued. Take a close look in the following pictures and you will see each of us trying to sneek extra marshmellows on their stick!
Uncle Ken took several of Henry's marshmellows off of his stick. Wonder where they went? In to Uncle Ken's tummy? Hmm.





Andrew took a great picture of Rosa from his level.
