An Old Fashioned Easter

Easter 2014

What a fun day! Today we went over to Grandma Pate's house to celebrate Easter by doing an Easter egg hunt. The kids were super excited! They looooooove going to Grandma Pate's house! She is very good at getting everyone together and involving all the kids and adults in having fun. I'm grateful they get the opportunity to have their great grandma and build these memories. 

Also, Grandma Pate lives in the country, and the kids LOOOOOVEEEE the country! They think it's sooo much fun! Another thing thats cool about Grandma Pate is that she is like the family historian. She does genealogy for everyone and saves alllllllll the pictures of kids, grandkids, and great grandkids. She really likes to preserve things. So, today, i decided to add to her collection, by taking photos of the egg hunt. 

It's sort of fun to see Steve and his cousins reminisce about the fun they had there while growing up. It fun to see that its spilling onto this generation. 

Here are some pictures of the kids:   

It's official. Matthew is no longer a little kid :( He didn't hunt for eggs, instead, he hid them. And this is him getting ready for all the kids to come out. He had a cascaron (confetti egg) ready to be smashed in someones head! You can see his little mischievous smile ^


Poor Hailey! She got the egg cracked on her head!

Olivia, Grandpa Pate & Matthew




YES, that is Matthew ^ and I worry he will be taller than me by the end of the year!

Olivia just pulls off the vintage look! Is that you Winnie Cooper?!

I literally had 3 pieces of candy. Considering I'm addicted to chocolate, I think I did pretty good!
