Egg-straviganza

We had such a busy day today! The kids were off school so the morning was nice and slow. I fed everyone pancakes and then made Mr. Stannix some eggs and toast when he woke.

Sawyer fell asleep on his Daddy's lap shortly after breakfast and it was the cutest thing to watch. His cheeks are getting so chubby! I love how chill he is.

Once the baby was asleep we got all of the dye ready for coloring eggs!



We had some pretty excited littles!







After we were finished everyone got dressed and we went out to a friends place for lunch and an Easter Egg Hunt. Each kid got a bag with a list taped to it to help them find their eggs! There were big eggs and small eggs and eggs that lit up. The littles did their hunt indoors while the big kids all went outside. Afterwards everyone enjoyed their chocolate while we visited.

Sawyer was a champ as we went right from their home to Lacombe for a wedding reception. It's so crazy to me that kids I used to babysit are old enough to get married now!

Everyone changed into their wedding clothes on the way there. The boys shirts didn't stay white and clean for very long though with chocolate easter eggs and loose teeth. Joe begged us all week to pull his tooth, but it just wasn't ready. It ended up falling out in the van on our drive there and getting lost between the seats. A few minutes later a thirsty Hyrum tipped a water bottle up for a drink just as Daddy was coming to a stop at a red light. When the car came to a complete stop and jerked back, the water came out the open lid, all down Hyrum's front and into his seat. The look of shock on his face and the fact that I had already dealt with the chocolate and blood on Joe's shirt caused me to laugh hysterically at the craziness of the situation. I hadn't seen anything quite that funny for a really long time. Hyrum joined right in laughing as I threw him some paper towel. The poor boy had to put up with wet pants for the rest of the night. The reception was beautiful! They had a taco bar and lots of decorations. We were all pretty tired on the drive home after such a fun-filled day!
