Easter 2012 -- Part2 Egg Hunts

The Easter Bunny came!!

Kyleigh's basket

Most of Abby's basket

Already playing with Fairy Princess Dora.

At some point in the night after the Easter bunny came, Abby pulled her Dora Look & Find book (you can see it on the couch behind Nate) out from behind her basket and started looking through it. :) Funny girl.

Kyleigh jumping with excitement. :)

Easter 2012 -- Part1 Coloring Eggs

This year, Nate and I thought ahead. We boiled the eggs Friday night to color them Saturday. Most years we have to wait on coloring eggs on Saturday because we need to boil the eggs and then let them cool first....it's a little frustrating for the kids. :)

So this year, while the girls were down for 'quiet time', Nate and I got set up to color the eggs.

The girls were super excited to begin.....can you tell? ;)

Nate was happy too. :)

So with everything all set up, we were ready to get coloring!

A New Use for Glo-sticks!

I found this idea on Pinterest. You crack the glo-sticks, throw them in a full bathtub, then turn out the lights and have fun! The girls had a blast!!! Just see for yourself. :)

Fill up the bathtub.

Then add glo-stcks, kids and turn out the lights.

Nate's Birthday

While Nate was at work Thursday, the girls and I decorated the apartment to surprise him when he got home. The girls and I picked out Star Wars themed decorations from Party City. :)

Balloons & streamers in the dining room.

New Toys!

The girls were excited to play with their new toys that Santa brought them. Abby got her first (and last!) motorcycle with a blue kitty helmet. Kyleigh received a Princess razor scooter with a purple kitty helmet. They had a whole lot of fun riding around the parking lot!
