Easter

We headed to Roswell for Easter weekend to see Matt's side of the family but also to see Uncle Jacob on leave from the Navy. I LOVE this picture of Uncle Jake and his niece and nephews!

This is the Easter basket my parents got for Madison. She loves it because it has her name on it. This girl loves to point out all the letters in her name that she sees around town on signs and buildings!
Early Saturday morning we headed to Roswell to spend the weekend with Matt's parents, sister and brother. We went straight to their church Easter egg hunt. Madi jumped right in and starting gathering eggs.

Although, once she got close to the playground she thought she had enough of the eggs and just wanted to play.

The kids also got to decorate and eat cookies. Owen (in the middle with his tongue out) was so excited to eat the yummy cookie! Madi decorated her cookie but wouldn't touch it. Whose child is this anyways?

Then they all got to paint an egg shaped piggy bank. Too cute! This was really a well planned and event filled day for the kiddos!

Then the kids took food and goodies to the fire station next door. They were so nice and even let the kids tour the fire truck and see a fireman in all his gear. Madi wanted NOTHING to do with the scary fireman.

Grandma and Grandpa let the kids dye Easter eggs. This was so hard for me to watch as all that colored water bothered me but the kids did great, had fun and didn't make much of a mess. I was surprised!

Oops this picture was taken after church on Sunday and should be later in the post!

Madi had so much fun helping Grandma and Grandpa water the plants and help put dirt in the buckets.

Helping Grandpa with the dirt.



Grandpa took Ethan on a motorcycle ride. Madison wanted nothing to do with that thing! She was outta there the second he started it up!

Sunday morning, Grandma and Grandpa had eggs hidden for Madi to find. She loved searching and searching for them.





Grandma and Grandpa gave Madison this basket filled with all sort of goodies: candy, peeps, 3 bows and an adorable dress Grandma made for Madi (I'll post her in it later).

After church we took pictures . . .
