We got Evan a playhouse last weekend. We didn’t put it up til this weekend due to Evan and I being out of town.

Evan enjoyed “helping” Eric and of course Eric was “glad” for the help!!!  : )

And the end result:

Easter at the Lake!!!!

We came up on Saturday for Easter weekend and Evan immediately went to play in the yard here at grammy and Papa’s

Easter morning Evan woke up to his Easter Basket.

Evan got some eggs, Chocolate bunnies, peeps and some wind up toys, and a spider and lady bug that makes noise……well, he’s a BOY!!!!  : )

Then we were off to the Lake for lunch.

Rebecca, Shea and Zoe came over this morning.  The boys played, we visited and Zoe, well she took it all in!!!!101_1766 101_1770

I gave the boys bubbles that came in “ice cream” containers. Evan was really upset at first that it wasn’t real.  OOPS!!  My bad…..

Evan outside

We finally got rid of the rain for a day so took advantage of the beautiful sunshine!!!

101_1745

Evan loves his swing and when he wants to go higher he yells…” RUN FASTER” and his legs are like he is running .  : )

We are teaching him to mow the yard…….just kidding, but soon though.

101_1750

OKAY, this is a bit SCARY!!!  Eric was trying to cut down this big bush and Evan wanted to sit in his lap!!  Needless to say Eric waited to finish til Evan went in for his snack!!!

101_1717

Then of course after all that he needed a bath ( and a short siesta while in the bath…HA!!!)

101_1718

Then ready for bed, course we have to wear daddy’s shoes while winding down.

Easter Egg Hunt at Church

Evan’s class plus a few other classes had their Easter egg hunt this  morning.

They started off by making crowns to wear on their heads with easter eggs on them.

Evan making his crown………….

They then had the Easter story read to them

And then off to the egg hunt. In these pictures I never got Evan’s face much because he was always looking down to find eggs…101_1731
