Yesterday was a ton of fun! We had an Easter party with a lot of my aunts, cousins and their kids. We had a lot of fun things for the kids to do while we caught up with some family that we haven't seen in a while.
I'm pretty sure the kids loved it! Trying to get them all together for a picture wasn't easy.
Audge was watching Mya and Sophia so they were able to come too, which is good because Peyton wouldn't want it any other way. :)
The wagon was a big hit...
and so was the chalk...
but the best part of all was the egg hunt! There were eggs EVERYWHERE and each kid had an overflowing basket. They were all smiles!
Janeane even stuck a bunch of ginormous suckers into the ground that looked like flowers. Peyton thought they were the best thing ever!
My cousin's little boy, Eli is so adorable...
And so were the rest of the kids! I'm always thinking about how I will look back and remember these days because time is going by so fast. At the party I was visiting with my Aunt and she said that looking at our kids reminded her of my cousins and I as kids running all over my grandparent's house. I thought about the home videos that I've seen in the past where all my aunts and uncles were probably around the same age as we are now and all of us kids running around with our cousins and having a lot of fun. I am so greatful that my family has always been all about family and that they've taught me that family is everything. I'm even more greatful now that I have a family of my own and to be able to teach them these same values.
These pictures bring back such sweet memories to me. Me and my sister's kids used to go see the Easter bunny together and have face painting and take pictures and have all sorts of fun. My kids are older now, and they still love the baskets. hehe Happy Easter to you and your wonderful family. I hope you all have a blessed day.
