Park, Parade, Play and Praise

Those are a few of our favorite things!

The weather has been beautiful and we were determined to take full advantage of it. That we did!
On Friday, Ollie, Lesley, Row, Mom and myself met at Dream Park for a little fun. It's so nice that Row and Ollie get along so well (for the most part). They LOVE to play together and it cracks me up to watch them. Ollie is the bossy mean one but Row, being that he weighs as much as she does, can hold his own. 
 Here is a perfect example of the difference between and girl and boy- 
As you see, Ollie is carefully examining the caterpillar with a twig. Row observes. Shortly after this picture was taken, Row picked it up (with his fingers) and threw it on the ground. Boys! ;)
Ollie learned to hang on the monkey bars. These were a little high, but once she found something she could reach, I couldn't get her to stop "hanging". She was so proud. Pretty good for a girl!

 Row was a little hesitant of coming down the tunnel slide. He prefers to slide on his belly and eventually worked his way down, very slowly. Don't let this fool you, the kid is scared of nothing!

 Saturday morning our church's annual Easter egg hunt was held. In the past we have hunted eggs on Palm Sunday but this year things were done a little different. 
 Following tradition, the kiddos hunted eggs at Springdale. I'm not sure how many eggs were hidden but it had to be close to the thousands! That or Ollie Pearl rocks the egg hunt ;)!
 This picture was taken before the hunt (was suppose) to begin. As you can see, both Ollie and Sylie (Ollie's BFF) had eggs in their baskets! Too funny! They were both saying cheese just not looking at the camera.
 Told ya she RoCkEd the egg hunting!!

 Sylvie had her hands full!! Happy girl!
 Not only did we hunt eggs and enjoy a picnic, but what's Easter without a parade?! We all decorated our kid's favorite riding toy and did a loop of Veteran's Memorial Park. 
 Many thanks go to Katie King for planning such a wonderful Easter celebration!


 Saturday afternoon was family time! 
We headed up to my parent's house to spend some time on beautiful Gantt Lake. 
 My beautiful mom and sister Leanne.
 Mitch, Lesley and Row.
 My awesome and amazing family!!
 Happy Easter!
