Easter!!

We had a week full of Easter festivities!! To start the week off, we had a little Easter Egg hunt out at the dam with our playgroup :: it was so fun!!  The day turned out to be beautiful & the kids had so much fun!!  We decided not to invite the Easter bunny this year since we had so many terrified children last year (last year's funny pictures are here though :)


Jackobi really embraced the Easter Egg hunt this year.
Holidays with children are just more magical.



Kashton, on the other hand .... wasn't very impressed....

... until he realized there was candy in those eggs
then he quickly became a fan ...


A little later that week a few of us got together to dye Easter Eggs!  It's so fun to do things like this as our kids get older.  It's fun to watch them play and entertain one another.  We're so grateful for such fun, good friends!



"What jelly beans, mom?" ... this picture had me cracking up! Kashton looks so guilty with his mouthful of Jelly beans!

we tried to get the little brother's to let us take their picture ....
they were far more interested in the jelly bean & rice crispy treats!
It's fun to have this little trio of boys so close together!

Kashton is my official stubborn picture taker .. (sigh)
one day I'll have him trained!  .... [maybe!]

 
She's her daddy's girl! That's for sure! 
I love their sweet little bond.

Easter Sunday was fun to get all dressed up!
Kashton is still not sure why I make him
sit still for pictures, but is getting a little better ...

we had fun opening baskets and finding Easter Eggs ::




Since Kashton learned about what's inside the eggs, he's a bigger fan. It's about all we could do to get him to avoid opening eggs until after the egg hunt ... little man loves himself some chocolate!!

still searching for goodies ...
even after he's eaten them!

and most importantly Kashton learned to dunk it ...
(thanks Jason) now at least there's more than one
Christiansen boy with this talent ... :)


We had such a great Easter filled with so many fun memories!
We are so incredibly blessed ...

SOOO cute! Darling pictures! Jackobi's Easter dress is so pretty. She looked darling, but then again she always does! I love the sibling togetherness!
