Happy Easter!

Happy Easter! We started with coloring Easter eggs on Saturday morning! Both kids did a wonderful job.



The egg decorations are from the Williams-Sonoma kit. This is the second year using it and there is still quite a bit of decorations left! A good buy, especially if you get it on sale.



Cute Easter egg stand!



We went to the annual Easter Brunch with Ian's extended family. They have been doing the brunch since the Ian was a small child. It's quite the occasion. It was at Karen's beautiful house in Redmond. A great place for the kids to run and play! Not sure how Colin was still standing after running for four hours! He was pretty funny on the Easter egg hunt- find an egg and eat the candy. He did get a good head start before the professional egg hunters came out!



NB looking quite pretty in her Easter dress. She does love to dress for the occasion. She is a dress-up girl.



The chickens were almost as popular as the Easter egg hunt! Colin stayed in the chicken pen for quite awhile. He loved chasing them and the older kids too!



Close-up picture of more chickens. I think there were about five. I want chickens! I think Rebecca should have them in their yard!! We could have shared neighbor chickens! What do you think Rebecca??



I liked the horses too! They have a beautiful barn that Steve built!



On Sunday we had a brunch and Easter hunt at our neighbors house! It was a great time and the kids had a blast finding their eggs!



Once again, Colin finds one egg and then eats it!



Are there eggs hidden in those rocks?

Great pictures! Your decorated Easter eggs look beautiful! Thanks for your company today; our kids had so much fun and were really glad to share the holiday with yours.

As for chickens, er...no...for so many reasons. Actually, I think you guys have room for a coop/run! Go for it!

I love the picture on the rocks...The kids (accept Nonabella of course) hunting for eggs in their rain gear...
