Cheater Cheater Pumpkin Eater

We have started playing games at our house! I have looked forward to this day since before I had kids! Jeremy HATES playing board games and is such a sore loser, I could not wait until my kids wanted to play games with me! A few of our faves right now are, memory, princess memory, Candy Land, Old Maid and Hungry Hungry Hippo!
Well the other day we were playing Hungry Hungry Hippo and look who takes after their daddy in the game department...Owen the cheater! He uses his hands and puts all the marbles into his hippos mouth...he also acts as if he is doing nothing wrong during the act and gets very upset if you take the marbles out of his "hippo's belly" to continue playing the game.
Caught in the act...

Easter Egg Hunt 2012

Easter Egg Hunt 2012

The Easter Bunny came and left eggs all over our back yard, filled with candy and money! :) Ellie and Owen had so much fun running around the yard and collecting eggs. Ellie helped Owen find a few and was very fair to her little brother. After we came inside the kids went through all their loot, put the money in their piggy banks and ate their weight in chocolate!

Dying Eggs

The kids have been so excited all week to dye Easter Eggs. We decided to do it Friday night before Easter. Ellie of course wanted to dye all her eggs pink, while Owen didn't care what color he was using as long as he could throw the eggs into the different cups and watch the dye splash all over! He broke a few to say the least.

I'm really enjoying doing more and more fun things as the kids get older! I hope they want to hang out and play with us forever...although I know this may not be reality!
