Easter Bunnies

We had some fun with the baby girls…did the same thing with Gunner and Laney a couple years ago.  See that fun here.  
Get ready for a load of adorableness!!!!!








Easter Weekend 2014

warning - a load of pictures!

A major perk to living back in Kansas??  We got to spend Easter with both of our families!  Something we will never take for granted since we spent many years living in Texas.
All of the Jones' came to KC to not only celebrate Easter but Quincy's 1st birthday too!
 The bounce house was a total hit!!!
 Love this sweet picture of Brynn and Hadley.
 Even the birthday girl had fun in the bounce house!
 Piper enjoyed the warm weather out in the grass.
 The boys had their shirts off and the little girls were not to be outdone!  If you know Laney, you know she was all about stripping down to that diaper!
 Emily Marie and Piper Marie
 Once the sun went down it cooled off quickly.  Hence Brynn is fully dressed and coat - Hadley and Laney still rockin' their birthday suits.


Moving on to Easter morning...
 That Easter Bunny must know this boy well!  A basket full of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle items!
 This look is more of a 13 year old that we woke up for Easter morning instead of a 2 1/2 year old!
 She was so excited about her princess notebook and markers!
 He's showing Piper her new bottle, he told her it might be a magic bottle that she will like ;).
Piper's 1st Easter gifts!  A new bottle, sippy cup and super cute romper for summer!
Lola got lots of Easter love from Brynn.
 We headed over to Aaron and Cami's for lunch and Easter egg hunt.  Our bunny left a note for the kids at our house that he left all the eggs at Cash's house so they could all hunt together!  Emily thought the Easter Bunny had bad handwriting ;).
 Neither girl was happy about us posing them together.
Look at ALL these girls!!  Those 5 little girls are going to be so fun to watch grow up together.


 Piper found an egg!
 Who knew a 4 month old could have bad hair days!?
 This girl loved it!
 So did this boy!  And if he's running, you can usually guarantee that he has one hand holding up his pants.

 Quincy was totally content sitting and shaking this one egg.
You know it's a good Easter when kids are wearing shorts and no shoes!
Comparing their loot.
 Mamaw, Papaw and their 11 grandkids…how did that happen!?

After the egg hunt, all the Wash, MO family hit the road back home.  We hit the highway south to my grandma's house for Easter with my family.
 Grandma, Grandpa and their crazy grandkids!
 Funny Faces!  Henley was not harmed during this process although it appears otherwise.
 Another quality family picture with my loves…or not.

 The reason holidays are so fun…and so much work ;).
 Sweet girls!
Mama Kelly picked up chalk and bubbles for the little kids.  It was a hit!  


Needless to say, it was a great Easter!

Spring has Sprung!

Could it be that Spring is finally here?!!?  One day a few weeks back, Cooper asked me if we were ever going to get to play outside again.  Ugh, we I might just be missing the Texas weather a teeny tiny bit.  But it looks like we are headed on the right track with Mother Nature.  Finally.

 The kids are loving our deck and that there is a door to it right off the playroom :).  I should also mentioned how well these 2 are playing together now!  Of course they fight like crazy but for the most part, they are really playing awesome.
I was making lunch one day while they played on the deck.  LOVE that the window in the kitchen peeks right onto the deck!  This was what I found when I went outside at one point - they just giggled and blamed each other for it.  
 One Saturday, Town Center Plaza hosted Powell Gardens for a fun activity.  For $5, kids could paint a pot and pick a flower to plant.  Wish I had a pic of the final product, they did awesome and totally loved it!
 Marshmallow Bunnies!  Another one I wish I had a pic of the final product - so cute!
 Piper had fun watching
 One morning we colored eggs-they were mesmerized by the process.
 And Piper was mesmerized by her hands.
The final product.
