Coloring Easter Eggs 2011

April 23, 2011

We almost didn't get our eggs colored this year... we didn't start until 9:30 at night. I guess that is not to unusual for our family. We do everything late. Becky and Corey were over so we were rushing so we could watch a movie with them. The egg dying kit I bought this year was for decorating your eggs to look like monsters.

Dax will not smile for pictures...

Yes, Brayden does have a black eye in this picture. He and Dawson bonked heads on the trampoline. Poor guy :(. The morning after Brayden got his black eye he climbed in bed with me to talk. He had been so excited because it was his maturation day, and he was going to be checked out of school early. He had really been looking forward to this day. This is how our conversation went:

Brayden: "Well, this was going to be a good day..." :(.

Me: "What are you talking about, why isn't it going to be good?"

Brayden: "I was going to get out of school early, it is Friday, and I was going to have a late night with Jacob. Now I have a black eye :(

Me: "So why can't you still do all that?"

Brayden: "Well, I guess I can..."

I never knew how much a black eye could affect ones day :). Brayden was pretty devastated. I am glad I could help him realize that life could go on after a black eye. Well now that I got off on that little tangent, I will continue about coloring eggs :).

Becky and Corey were being entertained by the movie "Hot Rod". As you can see Becky was really enjoying it!

Poor Dave, this is all he does now... HOMEWORK :(.

Jada's finished egg

Brayden's egg named Rod since we were watching Hot Rod...

Dawson's monster eggs...
He can not ever just smile for a picture :)

Daxton's eggs,
he left them sitting in the coloring for 2 hours...

After watching a movie so late the Easter Bunny got to stay up until 3 am :/. Poor Easter Bunny, I know how she feels!
The Easter Bunny was good to our kids this year! Dawson has been begging for Otter Pops, who knew that the Easter Bunny was so intuitive :).

Jada & Dawson

When the Easter Bunny finally went to go to bed, she checked on all the sleeping kids. Dawson and Jada had built themselves a bed on Jada's floor so they could sleep together. So I decided to get some pictures of the cute sleeping littles...

Brayden

We had watched a movie that freaked Brayden out, so he decided he needed to sleep on the couch in our bedroom!

Daxton

Awe, look how big my baby is... my how time flies!
So excited for Easter Morning!!!
