easter 2014 - part three

well. easter was one month ago today. so... its about time i got this last easter post actually finished up and published.  per the usual, i'll try and keep the words to a minimum and let the photos do the talking.  we really had such a wonderful day and couldn't have asked for better weather.  in fact, it was nicer in april than it has been this may so far!  

sunday, 4.20.2014:
here's how our day started... a little bit of pbs kids and books on the ipad in bed. 
and chocolate milk. 
or coffee for some people.

 

after a morning of lounging... it was time to get dressed for the little easter egg hunt in the front yard!


we brought lunch outside and had a picnic. i'm telling you....the weather couldn't have been more perfect that day! we spent the entire afternoon outside... only came in once it was time for dinner... ugh. looking forward to more days like that... soon!


then it was time to do a little golfing...


(sorry. i easily get obsessed with this tree in our front yard.  probably because i look forward to the blooms for months and then they maybe last a week before they are gone... so i just take a lot of pictures!)


me and my silly little man.  it is nice to actually be in pictures these days.  being bossy and making todd be in charge of the camera for five minutes is totally worth it. ;)


better late than never, right?! happy (very) belated easter... it was pretty great!

easter 2014 - part two

easter number two took us to grandma brink's house.  for dinner and the annual easter egg hunt!  like jackson's outfit?  a velvet blazer, shorts and crocks. nice.  but seriously, he looked so cute!

 

we started our afternoon with photo shoots in the backyard.  grandma loves to take pictures of everything. just like i do! so we make a pretty good team (when we can get all of the kids to cooperate!)


just a couple of cousins climbing trees. nbd.


jackson got to have his first experience at dying easter eggs.  he was kind of a fan.


luckily the hubs took a few photos of me and my little man.  i feel like i'm rarely in photos so i'm so glad to have these.  and then we took a selfie :)



once our mini shoot was over...time to find easter baskets and get ready for the easter egg hunt.  jackson, todd and i were a team.  well they were a team and i was the photographer.


proud!


busted. eating the easter candy.


cousins!



another successfully fun holiday.  i'm so glad that we get to do this. jackson lives it up every.single.time. and i hope he has such fond memories of these times with our families! being a kid is pretty fun!

up next, our little family's easter! eater 2014 - part three :)
