Easter Celebration and March Birthday's

We had the March celebration at David and Michelle's home in Orem. They moved here about a month ago. It is a nice 4-level home with lots of room for the kids to play. Here the boys are chilling in the kitchen waiting for time for dinner. (We had a nice turkey dinner with all the trimmings - thanks to everyone contributions.)

After dinner we were going to have an Easter Egg Hunt - BUT ... Mother Nature decided that the end of March was not 'outside' weather yet, so we moved it to inside. This is a part of the prizes the kids were getting to pick from as part of the activity.

We played the 'dice game' - and every time they rolled doubles they got to pick an egg from the center. The ones with 'T' on them meant 'toy' - and they could each pick 5 of them - which they later turned in to pick toys from the toy basket. They seemed to have a good time. There were lots of eggs - and yes, many had candy and money in them.

Claire was content with playing with the eggs. She didn't realize there was candy or money in them and really didn't care!! What a cutie.

Look at the loot Talmage ended up with. He seemed quite pleased with his 'haul'. Each child had a huge 'loot' bag to carry all of their treats. This was the week before Easter - so they were just getting started.

We were celebrating Janna and Carter's birthdays as well. Carter was giving Janna her gift. How old are you Janna Banana???

Here's Carter with some of his presents and with David. He got several'Cars' gifts - (from the movie). He LOVES Lightening and Mater!!

Seth doesn't usually smile for Uncle Ryan (we are not sure why) - so when we catch them laughing we need to record it. He is usually off playing when Uncle Ryan is around ... but he is getting better!
