Easter 2016

Our Easter post is about a week late, but better late than never as we just got back from a week in the Caribbean (but more on that in next week's post).

I realized a few months ago that our flights out for Spring Break 2016 actually fell on Easter Sunday and Easter morning to be exact. So that foiled all of the Easter egg hunt plans especially the infamous Easter egg hunt at Grandma's house. Austen was none too happy about that since Grandma gives some pretty cool prizes to those finishing first and second.

We made the best of it anyway and held our Easter egg hunts a day early, and luckily Grandma planned an extra Easter egg hunt for the kids so they didn't feel like they missed out at all.

Hailey was really fun to watch this year as she enjoyed finding her eggs in our backyard and racing all over Grandma's backyard with her Dad as her partner too. (They actually won the hunt!)

See Hailey in action at our house then at Grandma's...

Look out for that stick ready to poke you in the eye!

 And, she loved finding her Easter basket.

The other two, a bit older, still had fun hunting for their eggs...and their baskets.

But my favorite photo has to be of my Dad with Austen. He tried to hold Austen back from the finish line so Peyton would come in second but Austen wasn't having any of that. It was bad enough he didn't get first place this year.

The hunt was over but the memories will remain. Thanks Grandma for making sure they didn't miss out this year!
