Easter

Saturday morning we took the kids to the park for the city Easter egg hunt. I held Aly and stayed with Crue while Jared went with Cooper to his age group.
 The Easter bunny showed up on the fire truck with the lights and sirens going. The kids loved it. He started the hunt.
 I told Crue before what he needed to do and he did really good. He even came back to me when his bucket was full. I think I scared him a little when I showed him what building to look for and walk towards to find me (I didn't know if it would get super crazy and I wouldn't be able to see him). He had fun and wants to do it again next year.
 Cooper and Daddy on our way back to the car. The temp was in the 30s, hence the coats. Jared said he had told Cooper what to do at the hunt and he was all ready to go but when they honked the horn to start he just stood there looking around. Luckily in his age group the parents are allowed in the egg area so Jared grabbed most of the eggs for Cooper's bucket.
Playing around on a cart at Grandma Great's house in St. George with cousins before lunch and another Easter Egg hunt.
 Do I have the cutest boys or what?!
 And the cutest girl! She didn't like touching the grass with her hands until there was something worth crawling for, or until she decided to start eating it. 
 Crue wanted in the tree and then was scared to death. He ended up screaming at Jared, literally, to get him down. I love the look of panic on his face! (He's actually smashing Jared's left hand in the picture.)
 Cooper wanted in the tree and then in true Cooper fashion asked me to take a picture.
 Crue decided he wanted to go where Cooper had been and was pretty good about being in the tree after that. He didn't climb any higher but he did move around a little where he was.
 Aly was using the croquet pole to stand up, and even did a little "pole dancing". She had fun until she hit her mouth when she tried eating the pole. Then she was done.
 I LOVE this picture of her! She's so cute. I love her hair in pig tails too. I just need to figure out an easier way to get them out - she doesn't like that part.
 Getting more candy filled eggs.
 Crue loved going off and finding eggs. What happened to my little boy that we used to help find all the eggs?
 Two happy boys with their second round of candy for the day.
 I guess the grass was pretty tasty.
 A round of badmitton after the egg hunt. It was beautiful weather.
 Dad helping cooper hit one.
We have 9 am church so the Easter Bunny came during naptime Sunday.
 Water gun, coloring book, another book, and teddy bear dressed as a bunny. And a bunch more candy.
 I made Aly's dress this year and I think it turned out pretty cute. The zipper part at the top in the back went a little funky and kind of stuck out but that must be something to do with the pattern because I had sewn as they said.
 I love bows in the back of dresses. I decided I really liked the dress pattern so I'll probably make more from it.
