Easter!

We had a super fun Easter! Lincoln is finally at the age where he is getting things....like an egg hunt! Anyways on Saturday we went to Grandpa Burr's house and had lunch and fed the horses and played on the slide. Then we had an awesome egg hunt, that Lincoln loved! He ran around with Randy picking up as many eggs as he could and put them all in his basket, then opened every single one. After the hunt we went in and dyed some eggs for the egg roll, I know it sound so weird but trust me is was the funniest thing I have ever seen. All the kids got like 2 hard boiled eggs and stood at the top of the hill and at the count of three they threw them down and whoever's egg lasted the longest won. Well they just had fun throwing the egg and then running down to get it then throwing it again and again! Really is sounds weird and a total waste of eggs but it was the best I think I will always do that with my kids!
Grandpa Burr has a horse named Nellie and a buggie that he got out and took all the kids on a ride, I must say it was a big hit!
On Sunday the Easter bunny came and gave Lincoln a Buzz Lightyear action figure and 2 cool sipper cups. We had eggs hidden around the house and we thought that Lincoln would love is but he figured out that there is candy inside so he just went around opening them and checking out the candy. But it was still so cute and fun! We had Dinner at our house so it was nice to host and have a nice meal with Kyle and Jill and Paul and Natalie! Lincoln hunting away and making sure Tyson didn't get more than he did! Randy with his Dad and Lincoln on the buggy! This is all the kids waiting at the top of the hill to throw their eggs!
