We had a fun, eventful week. Here are some highlights. We received a lot of rain the week of March 22nd. The boys thought it was a lot of fun to get the water out of the boat. They recently got new rain boots as well so that made it extra fun.
I took Tuesday off work so Steve could study more. While he was studying, I worked on filling up our water storage jugs. It was a lot of work, but I'm glad I got it done.
Carter swinging all by himself while waiting for Nyles to come out from school.
Steve built a stand for his tail kit so it's more secure while driving.
Nyles giving Carter a ride through the kitchen.
The stores have been out of ammo for a long time but Steve finally found some at Scheels.
Cute Hudson. Baby Shark!
Carter wanted to try on my headset for work. Another time he came up to show me his fox.
Cute Hudson chewing on a rubber duck, w/ his binky twisted around, and eating his sheep :)
Hudson chewing on his giraffe, holding his dog, and cuddling w/ his sheep during a nap.
More water to get out of the boat after another rain storm.
On Saturday we had Steve's family over for lunch, then had an Easter Egg Hunt. The last time we were all together was in September for Hudson's baby shower. We were able to eat outside on the patio then we hid the Easter eggs around the backyard for the kids to find. It was great to be together and be together again. The kids really enjoyed one another and got along pretty well.
The kids playing on the trampoline. London Claire holding Hudson. And our pretty daffodils in bloom.
The kids wanted to get in the boat of course. Stacie holding Hudson. Each kid had a golden egg to find in addition to their 12 colored eggs. Each kid finds one color so there is no confusion on who gets which eggs, plus we can hide the eggs harder for the older kids and easier for the younger ones.
Phill just relaxing on the boat.
The kids in the boat just playing. Noah came a little late so he was getting his lunch.
Let the egg hunt begin.
Conor working on finding his eggs. Nyles and Carter eating their lunch earlier. And LuDean trying to stay warm. It was almost 60 degrees, and it felt great in the sun, but there was a little wind at times.
Nyles trying to find his eggs scattered around the yard, Hudson getting sleepy as Stacie holds him, and Carter found his golden egg.
Nyles had a hard time finding his last orange egg because I put it in the bowl of clementines.
Watch the video of Nyles trying to find his last orange egg hidden w/ the clementines.
Dave and Noah juggling the clemintines, Hudson ready for a nap, Stacie/Melanie/Carrie by the boat, and more egg hunting.
The view from up in the house after the hunt. I went in to put Hudson down for a nap.
LuDean trying to still stay warm, putting their hands on the boat to feel the warmth, Conor and London Claire finding their eggs.
More egg hunting around the yard. We had a great time. Thanks everyone for the fun!
Later that evening we worked to get our vanity out and to the curb for the curbside pickup on Monday.
Nyles and Carter wanted to help get some of the screws out.
Nyles tickling Hudson and Hudson grabbing his toes. His cute chubby legs.

On Sunday we dyed some eggs in preparation for Easter coming up.
Hudson just chewed on the Easter bunny.
Pauline and her family came over for dinner, then we had another Easter egg hunt around the yard.
Fun finding Easter eggs. They each had 10 eggs to find. Lincoln got lots of licks from Piper.
Carter trying on some robin egg color on his lips. More beautiful Daffodils and Crocus in bloom.
And the kids wanted to get in the boat to play for a minute. Nyles and Ezra playing on the trampoline.
I love this time of year when the trees, grass and flowers come back to life, the weather starts to warm up and sun stays around longer. I love all the flowers coming into bloom in our yard. Yeah for Spring!
