Grandma Kathy and Pops were in LA for Easter, so before she left, we did a little Easter Egg dying :) Thank goodness I just had the boys in their diapers - what a mess! But it was so fun, and our first experience!!
Carson has quite perfected his "Cheese!" smile :) He was very neat and orderly while dying his eggs of course!
Alden was very proud that he dyed his hand green!!
At our church Easter party, Alden could not get enough of the Easter Bunny!!
Carson was a little unsure of him, and would not get closer than 4 feet or so to him. However, he found a friend to help him with some fun activities.
Alden even sat in the Easter Bunny's lap during the reading of the Easter story. Carson kept saying "Alden!!" from our view on the other side of the bleachers - they are not used to being apart!
After the party, and a good long nap, Peyton and Jon came over for a visit. They love reading books with their Auntie Peyton!
On Easter Sunday, that afternoon, Mimi and Grandpa hosted Easter at their house! Here is a shot of Alden and Carson heading out for their first official Easter Egg Hunt! Cousins Gabe and Talise were close by to teach them how its done!
Gabe and Alden made a good team!
And Carson and Talise were working well together too!
And it was the first time they saw the playhouse at Mimi and Grandpa's house, so it was very hard to focus on the egg hunt when there was a tunnel to play in!
Carson enjoyed hunting a little more!
After the hunt, they wanted to crawl up in Granddaddy's lap. Amazingly, they only spilled one cup of water on his lap - oh well! These are his 5th and 6th great grandchildren - he's used to it!!
After everyone else left, they boys played in the fountain - didn't get a shot of Carson, but this cute one of Alden!
Last weekend, we went to the River for the weekend. When we got there, Grandmommy and Granddaddy were already out for the evening, but the boys were happy to sit on the porch and have a little snack before bed.
On Saturday, Granddaddy took us for the boys first pontoon boat ride! Grandpa and Alden :)
Mimi and Carson :)
Carson driving the boat.
And Alden driving the boat.
I love Alden's hair blowing in the wind at the front of the boat with Daddy.
Alden and Mommy at the back of the boat.
They loved hanging their tongues out in the wind! Carson and I enjoying the breeze!
And a little playtime on the beach with Grandma Kathy too!
After some time on the beach, the boys played in the beach shower and loved it!
And some playtime in Grandmommy's bird bath!
Carson practicing his winking ;)
And THEN, Carson's first haircut! Alden had already had two of them, so it was Carson's big day! This shot shows the little bit that was so long on the side
And the final product - he was so happy!
(please forgive my dysfunctional picture placement on this first blog since the new design, I'm figuring it all out!)
