Easter Day

When we woke up Easter morning, we told Kasen that if he was a good boy while we were at church, that the Easter Bunny would come and hide his basket, and some eggs in the backyard. The basket he could have when he got home, but the eggs he would have to wait til his cousins came over later that night.

Once we were ready for church, we hurried up and snapped some pics so that we could get the BEFORE pics of church. Who knows how cranky or how messy Kasen would look and be after church.

After we got home from church, the first thing we did was search for Kasen's Easter basket so that my mom could see him before she had to leave for church. We kinda narrowed the search down to the kitchen for him since we were a little rushed. We told him to look in the things, under things, on top of things, anywhere he could think of. We started with the microwave and then he opened the oven. Tried the fridge and the dishwasher, then finally decided to look in the pantry. I quickly started snapping pics since I knew thats where the basket was.

He was so excited! Here is what the Easter Bunny brought him in his basket. He couldn't believe the Easter Bunny knew just what he wanted. He was a little disappointed with the Mickey Paint Book. That IS what he asked for, but the day before Easter he saw a Pirates of the Carribean paint book and wanted that SOOO bad. The Easter Bunny had already gotten the Mickey one so that's what he got. As soon as he pulled out the Mickey paint book, "Aww man! I wanted the pirates paint book, didn't the Easter bunny know?" Wow! Ha! I quickly explained to him that the Easter Bunny had already gotten the Mickey one for him before he decided on the pirates one and then tried to distract him with the rest of his goodies in his basket.

Later that evening, all Kasens cousins from the area come to my parents house and we had a fun Easter egg hunt.

This is a picture of the kids waiting by the screen door to go out and seach for eggs.

This is the kids all hopped up on sugar after finding the Easter eggs, so we made them all play outside! :)

All in all we had a good Easter.
