Easter Weekend

Hayden was lucky enough to get to have her friends come stay with us from Wednesday to Sunday!  She was in heaven playing with Kimball and London and L.O.V.E.D. holding and feeding baby Brooklyn.  Their parents and older 2 brothers went to New York and we were so happy they asked us to help out with the younger ones.

On Friday I had a Dr. appointment so the Mendenhalls went to play with another family and we took advantage of Paul's day off and went to breakfast at the Egg Harbor Cafe and then died Easter Eggs. This year we tried our hand at glitter eggs on some of them.  Hayden was beyond excited as she loves anything girly like that.

Because we have early church and 3 extra kids this weekend, we decided to do the hunt on Saturday when we'd have plenty of time to let them hunt, eat, and play with their new toys.  Here is what the Easter bunny left!

 Hayden has been begging for a cash register for months now and the Easter bunny finally heard her pleas!

London was very excited about her Minnie doll and wanted her shoes on right away!

Baby Brooklyn even got a basket full of bottles and a cute outfit.  

That night we decided to do sponge rollers to make their hair extra cute and it worked!

Love their cute Easter outfits!

My favorite Easter picture.  Seriously, how cute is she?  She has been asking everyday if she can wear this dress and was so excited the day had finally arrived.  She loved her hair too and kept looking in the mirror to check out the curls!

After church we went to our friends the Heinholds and again just like Christmas, took 0 pictures!!!  But this time maybe I had an excuse.  Hayden had a pretty big melt down and wouldn't even come in the room.  Sunday was a bit of a rough day, all the kids had had it with each other.  Hayden's use to a lot of quiet time and I think the Mendenhalls were missing their big brothers and mom and dad.  But the second they left Hayden was devastated. They had such a fun time together and we are so glad we could have them stay at our house.  Dinner was great, Stephanie made ham, jello, potatoes, dessert, and I brought a strawberry salad, my grandma's rolls, and a carrot souffle.  We had a great Easter and are grateful for our Georgia family!
