Still Catching Up...Easter!

The kids & I spent Easter with my parents this year & had a great couple of days with them.  Jeff was in Augusta, GA with his Dad & close friends to watch the Masters and had a trip of a lifetime!  Here are some pictures of our fun!

Dying eggs was really fun this year--the kids were totally into it and we made some great ones!  Poor Liv starting feeling really sick that evening (Saturday)  and I had to take her into the ER-turns out she had her 4th double ear infection since December...luckily the antibiotics kicked right in & she was lots better by Sunday morning!

We were very proud of our Bobcat one! :)

As usual, there was snow on the ground for Easter so we searched for eggs inside! :)  A Bozeman Easter Tradition!

I saw an idea on Pinterest for the kids to plant jelly beans the night before Easter & the next morning they grow into lollypops!  The kids loved this & it was a fun new tradition to start! :)

Livvy found the basketball egg!

We were very excited to see our buddies, The Johnsons, at Easter Brunch at Riverside!

Maddy was not, however, as excited about the Easter Bunny!  :)  I love Brady's expression here...still trying to save the picture!

Just goofing around!

Telling Papa how much she loves cupcakes...

We love Great Grandma Kessler!

And it's always fun with Uncle Dusty & Aunt Gina around!

Yep...still looks like winter!

Jumping!

Little sister has to try it too!

Jeff & his dad had an awesome time at the Masters--pretty special father/son bonding!!

Jeff, Tubbies, Schuey, BVC, Nick & Harte--quite the crew!! :)

Mothers Day Weekend in Cody!

We spent a very relaxing & very fun weekend in Cody to celebrate Mothers Day!  The kids had really been missing them (Liv had mentioned many times how much she "really missed her Grammy & Grampy") so we knew the kids were ready & so were we!  The highlights of the weekend were a fun golf outing on Saturday, hour-long dance party at the house Saturday night, a delicious brunch on Sunday and lots & lots of snuggles & play time.  In short, it was wonderful and we are so blessed to be close & have them in our lives!

In their fancy golf cart!

This was taken on the course behind their beautiful house!

Father & Son practicing!

Grammy & Brady throwing rocks into the canal

"The Pose"

They have this fun little 4-wheeler at the house that the kids love!  We have to tell Brady to push the pedal to the medal a lot but he loves it in his own, cautious way! :)  Liv of course is on the other end of the spectrum and was zooming around with a big grin on her face!

Giving his sis a ride!

I love this one!

Now Liv's turn!

This gave Daddy a panic attack thinking ahead in 12 years!

A little glimpse into the dance party--the kids were loving it!

Mothers Day Brunch

The kids gave me a card with this sticker on it for me to wear--I wore it all day--pretty cute :)

Jeff & his mom--we always give these two a hard time about closing their eyes during pictures but this one is perfect!  Of course I have a few with their eyes closed but I promised I wouldn't post those! :)
