Egg hunt at Grandma's

Today we went over to Mom's house to celebrate Easter a day early. The Easter Bunny had come early there so the boys did an egg hunt in the back yard!



Blake was a little slow to start because he wasn't sure what he was supposed to do, but once he watched his brother he figured it out and had a blast!






So fun!

Dying Easter Eggs

Last night we got out the Easter eggs to color. What an adventure!

Brady was very focused.


This year Blake actually participated, although it was hard to focus on the task at hand. We splashed and ate the dye......



but had a blast doing it!



30 minutes later we had 10 colored eggs!


(Blake's egg is the one that didn't fare so well on the left!)

The New Court

On Blake's Birthday we broke ground for our new basketball court in the back yard. The boys loved watching the big trucks and tools!



You can kind of see the dimensions in this picture.


We poured the cement right before the party. Both boys got their hand prints done.


Then the following week Uncle Casey came over to help put up the hoop.


Brady helped too!

The kids spend tons of time outside playing now. They have a better place to ride bikes off of our busy street now too. Brady played against Uncle Casey after the big project!
