Easter Excitement

My boys had such a fun Easter.

Tuesday Grandpa Clive and Kris came over to celebrate Easter with the kids. They brought flips flops for Dagen and Logen and a new outfit for Graden. My kids love it when they stop by our house to see them.

Saturday morning we went to the Spanish Fork ballpark for the annual Easter egg hunt. They get so excited each year to do this. We got them all lined up and ready to go. The siren rang out and off they went. Dagen kept running, we wondered if he would have ever stopped. He finally started picking them up. He got six eggs and was so excited about that. Logen went with my mom over to his age group. He knew exactly what to do. He heard everyone telling them to run and he was going to get some eggs whether anyone liked it or not.He got seven eggs but he shared them with Elexa and Aleia, they didn't get as many. Unfortunalely, nobody won any big prizes, but they sure did have a great time.

Then it was off to Kim's house for the Annual Bleggi Easter Party. Everyone buys items (treats, toys, money, etc.) for each of the kids. This year there was 19 kids. And Kim and her family put the items in the woods behind her house. All of the kids get a list of the items that they need to find, and off they go. They have so much fun. All the kids get so much fun stuff, that the kids won't even eat their lunch they would rather play. But then again that is everyday at my house anymore.

We had one more stop to make for Saturday's Easter celebration. We went to my mom's house. There they had an easter egg hunt. She put each kids eggs in seperate rooms and they had to search in there. Then we had some lunch just to make the kids get really ancy for the treasure hunt. It works everytime, and they actually eat when we tell them to, just because they want to go on the treasure hunt. So then they started the hunt, we have so much fun doing this every year. I actually think the adults like it more than the kids. The adults beat the kids to the next clue everytime. They got to the end and found their prize. They got some fun stuff from Grandma Deb and Mark. So when we left there, Dagen said to me "Mom, when do we get to go back to Grandma's for another easter egg hunt?" I think he wanted to do that everyday. My kids love going to Grandma's house.

Sunday morning the kids woke up bright and early to see if the Easter Bunny found our house. Well I think he did. We ask the Easter bunny each year to hide the eggs and the easter baskets. So they have to search high and low for everything. this year he hid Dagen's easter basket in the oven, and Logen's was behind the couch under Graden's walker. But he made it quite easy for Graden to find his, it was right there with all of his other toys. He hid all the eggs down in the playroom they had no problem finding those. I think they are pros by now.

So after we got ourselves all ready for the day we went over the Grandpa and Grandma Bringhursts house. The kids did another treasure hunt. And got more toys. They had so much fun playing with their cousins and their new toys. They love going to see Grandpa Glenda and Grandma Glenda. (That was not a typo, Dagen calls Larry Grandpa Glenda!!)

When we got home we all had naps and then went outside to enjoy the beautiful Spring Day. I have a video of Graden when he was on the grass. He hates the grass, but he finally started to crawl around on it. It was so much fun.

I hope everyone had a Happy Easter too!!!
