Easter

We had a fun Easter weekend last weekend.  On Saturday, we had a fun time "egging" our friends.  We hid 12 eggs around their yard, put a sign on their door, rang the door bell , and ran away.  It was fun!

 

 

 After that, we colored our eggs for the Easter Bunny to hide. 

 

 

Easter morning, they found the eggs and got goodies in their Easter baskets.

 

 

 

 Here they are all dressed up for church.

 

 

 

 

 

We got ready to go inside and Molly quickly reminded me I had not taken a picture of her and Pluto.  I don't know what I was thinking.

Molly's 3 year pictures are just adorable!

Enchanted Rock

Scott and I took Tyler to climb Enchanted Rock this morning.  We had a really good time.  We did the Summit Trail which is 1825 feet up.  It's steep, but Tyler didn't need any breaks.  He stopped once for pictures.  We did it in 13 min.  Then we did a 2-2 1/2 mile loop on the way down.  Tyler did great!

The way up!

At the top!

About to explore a cave

Tyler and I both climbed up this rock.  In the next picture, he's at the top.  It doesn't look too steep, but coming down it, we had to slide down. It made me a little nervous.

 

Going down. 

 

Molly's 3rd Birthday Puppy Party

What a day!  We had Molly's 3rd birthday party today.  It was a puppy party and it was cute, fun, and fabulous!!  Molly had so much fun!  She's been counting down that days until today and naming all her friends that would be coming.  Here is the dessert table.  We had Puppy Chow, Fetch sticks, brownies that looked like dog bones and this amazing puppy cake that my mom made!  We had a few problems the night before that involved going to the store for more cake and frosting and borrowing eggs from our neighbor, but she did it.  Molly loved it! 

 

 

We also had lunch, but I didn't get a picture of the food.  We had sandwiches for the adults and bone-wiches for the kids.  It was pb&j that were shaped like dog bones.  We have veggies and hummus, fruit, and tortilla chips we made that were shaped like bones and dogs along with a 7 layer dip. 

That mantel was filled with pictures of Molly and the kids take home gift was a puppy that they adopted.  They had dog food to take home for the dogs that was Coco Puffs.

 

After everyone arrived, we played a few games.  We had dogs and the kids had to roll a tennis ball into their mouth; we played Dog, Dog, Cat; and we had a race where the kids held a balloon between their legs.  I also had some different dog pictures for the kids to color.

 

 

When Molly picked her person, instead of running around the circle, she took off across the yard. By the way, how cute is this dress she has on. You can't tell, but on the skirt, it has a little girl walking a dog.

 

The kids had fun playing and swinging.

 

 

Tyler got Molly this bubble machine.  The kids had fun with it.

Tyler was glad to have his buddy, Colby at the party.   They found an area with lots of baby ladybugs. 

 

Here is the cake and candle time.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have to end with a picture of Trooper.  He had so much fun with a balloon.  He played with it a long time before it finally popped.  He was so cute.

Molly was so tired by the end of the day
A big Thank You to my good friend, Jennifer Harrison, who provided most of these pictures.  You rock!
