Rewind...Easter 2008

Just playing catch up here. We had a lot of great Easter activities this year and I didn't want to miss documenting some of them here.

Pictures with the Easter Bunny and a train ride at the Celebration put on by the city.The Easter Bunny visited and left a trail of eggs from the front door to a grand pile of loot for the kids. Caide was hoping that they eggs actually had a treat inside them....no such luck...they were empty. However, he was the first to taste test the marshmallow ropes. Rowan liked them too. Yummy, candy before church at the crack of unholy dawn! We have recycled the bunny ears each year...Raistlyn's look a little drab after 6 Easter's - Rowan looks stunning in hers doesn't she?


We lunched with the Grandparents and Aunts after church - this is the best family picture we got...at least everyone was facing forward....the little ones didn't want to cooperate and it was WAY TOO SUNNY! Our outfits all coordinated, too bad the shot wasn't better. I'm Bummed.
The kids loved playing with the bubble machine the Easter Bunny left them.
Raistlyn colored a dozen or so eggs for us.
She's such the little artist.
These next pictures are from an event that we have attended for the past several years at a church in Colleyville. They have a petting zoo, pony rides, live music, food, cotton candy and egg scrambles for the kids. Huge crowds as you can see. In this first picture towards the middle is a lone GOLDEN EGG. This is the PRIZE EGG that each child desperately wants to get their hands on. Raistlyn was victorious yet again (She Got One Last Year Too!) She is such a competitive little bug. Some of those boys she was up against were twice her size.



Caide was funny during his egg hunt because he didn't care about filling up his bucket - he wanted to open them up individually and eat the candy right then.
Raistlyn is definitely the Animal Lover.
She stayed to pet and feed as long as she could.


Caiden's first ride on a horse.
He was so brave up there all by himself!

The only picture of poor little Rowan at the Easter faire....she wasn't real happy about being in the stroller.
She soon fell asleep for the rest of the afternoon.

The next pictures are from Raistlyn's school Easter Party.
Caide found a few leftovers out in the field after the 1st grade egg hunt.
