Easter 2011

Ah....the joys of Easter....eeeerk....hold up...the joys of handing small children eggs and turning them loose with dye....ok..joy may be a complete fabrication of this task.  Banging head against table while trying not to scream might be a more adequate description of our egg decorating activities.  I asked Patrick if he wanted to help the littles dye their eggs this year.

And...I'll take that as an emphatic No!

Ok...looks like mom gets to be in charge.  Everybody strip!


 Lest you think we exaggerate...this is as annoying of a task as it sounds.  "Don't spill the dye.  Don't throw the eggs!  Yes, you got the same number of eggs as him! No we are not dancing on the table right now".  Exhausting. 

All to get these faces:


Easter morning the boys waited as long as they could for Carlie.  Then they decided she must wake up?  I wondered "why ruin a good thing?  She's quiet!"  So Jared drew the task of waking the beast.


And with a promise of candy and a warped description of the Easter Bunny.....






Here we go baby!


The end....not quite...she didn't even like that chocolate bunny. WHO does not like chocolate bunnies????  Send her back to bed!
