Puppet show for Papa

Eli's Work of Art

Eli had some artwork on display at a story by the Plaza. Unfortunatley they displayed it at the top of a 12ft wall. So I couldn't get a picture of him standing next to it and you really can't read the name on the card. But I assure you it is Eli's. This was very cool. And Lucas and Noah are posing w/a gaint pillow.

Hail

It started to hail this afternoon. It came down pretty heavy for a little while. But thankfully it didn't last very long. I like how you can see the hail in mid air in the last pic. I AM READY FOR WARMER WEATHER!

Webkinz

Eli took a picture of the webkinz the boys got for easter to show them to Papa. Each webkinz comes w/a code to get them into the virtual world of webkinz. They have to take care of their pets ie feed them, play w/them, take them to the doctor. They earn webkinz cash by playing games, hunting for gems, and taking quizs. They LOVE them. So the easter bunny did a good job.

I finished my first knitting project.

Lucas's blanket was in tatters. So I knitted this new blanket for him. He carries it around w/him like he did w/his old one. So we put his old blanket away for safe keeping. Although, it is REALLY pitiful.

I don't have as many good hiding places for eggs!

The egg hunt didn't take the boys long. I don't really have that many good places to hid eggs. The grass is usually good, since you can't see the egg until you are standing on top of it. However, with Easter so early, I didn't even have that. Oh, well. They had fun anyway.

Easter Baskets

This year the easter bunny brought easter baskets for my boys. However, he forgot to put the boys' Webkinz. So they got them on Monday when I remembered. Don't laugh Andrew. Noah was sick during the night on Saturday, but was able to hunt for eggs before he had to lay down. It was a good day. I didn't have to work so it was nice to spend the whole weekend w/the boys.

The Egg Hunt

I think Andrew did the best job hiding eggs for his two boys. But my boys just have trouble seeing what is right in front of them anyway. We used hot and cold to help them find some of the more difficult ones.

The Egg Hunt

I hid Eli and Lucas's eggs. Fred (my brother) hid Noah's and Trevor's. In the top pic, Noah is having to get an egg out from under a post that holds hanging baskets. It is heavy so I had to lift it for Noah. Each boy has 14eggs to find. The oldest grand boys- Noah and Jordan-where not happy that they were the last 2 hunting. They wanted an easier egg hunt. Trevor was more interested in the grass.

On your mark, get set GO!

Trevor doesn't get the idea

Trevor doesn't get easter this year. Maybe he will do better next year, when everything won't be going straight into his mouth. :)

A twist in the egg hunt

This year, the easter bunny hid only 1 type of easter egg for each grandboy. So Lucas looked for the chicks, while Scottie looked for the bugs (top pic). Trevor has Noah's carrot (bottom pic). And you can't see but Jordan is looking for the sport ball eggs. Trevor's elmo egg must be w/his parents.

Happy Easter

We did the grandkid easter egg hunt on Saturday. Only the big kids and grandparents had easter baskets. The little kids didn't like that idea. Oh well!

Before Pics

Trevor wasn't into the gift opening. So, Lucas had no trouble jumping in and helping out. I think Trevor spent most of his time trying to escape. But he did like the presents once they were opened.

After Pics

Trevor turns 1!
