I know that this blog is loooong over due! Shame on me for not blogging for so long. Here is my post on Easter 2014! This was our first Easter in our house. Last year we moved in right after Easter.
Over Easter weekend Cody's family came to visit us. Here he is with his mom, sister, and our niece and nephew.
Here we are with his mom.
Here are the girls.
Our family photo! Had to get a picture with us and our boys.
My mom and dad came over to have Easter dinner with us too.
Grandma and mom enjoying dinner.
We were working on trying to socialize Dex more. He is starting to a do a little bit better around people. I think it helped that everyone stayed for a couple of days, because he started getting more used to everyone.
Mom and her grand cats!
Grandma snuggling with Dex. She loves holding animals.
After dinner Cody, Dad, and Davey were playing. It was fun to watch dad try to play with a little kid.
Everyone playing and having fun.
After a little while it was time to color Easter eggs!
Davey coloring eggs.
Kelsie coloring her eggs.
The finished product! Unfortunately they had to drive home on Easter day so they didn't get to enjoy too many of their eggs. Cody doesn't eat boiled eggs, so I had plenty of them to eat for a while!
Here are the kids on Easter morning. They were up bright and early on Easter morning. The Easter bunny left them a note.
The note told them to find their Easter baskets and that the Easter bunny had hide Easter eggs over the house for them to find. The Easter bunny told them which colored eggs were Kelsie's (pink, purple, and orange) and which ones were Davey's (blue, green, and yellow).
Excited to start the hunt!
Here is Kelsie looking at the Easter eggs that she found. Some of the Easter eggs had different candies in them and some had money in them.
Here is Kelsie helping her little brother find his eggs. It seemed like the Easter bunny hide Kelsie's eggs harder than Davey's but she was still able to find her eggs faster than him. She was a helpful big sister and pointed out where some of his were for him.
Here is Davey looking at his eggs.
Both of the kid's Easter baskets ended up being downstairs. They found Kelsie's basket first in the room below the morning room.
They found Davey's basket in the media room. You can see inspector Cosmo checking out what was going on. This was the first time that he was around kids, and I was interested in how he would respond to them. He did great! He loved the kids... even when they were running around and being loud he was chasing around with them.
Here is Davey checking out what is inside his Easter basket. And you can see Cosmo in the background. Every time the kids had something on the floor he started to investigate/play with it.
Kelsie excited with the stuff she found in her basket.
Davey excited to see that he got the "Planes" Disney movie.
Kelsie showing off the items in here basket.
The kids playing with their new toys.
Cosmo getting in trouble. He was trying to eat the "grass" in the Easter baskets!! Darn cat! I had to pick all of that up really quick so that he couldn't get into it.
My living room after the Easter baskets were emptied out haha!! I was so happy that Cody's sister and the kids came for Easter. Easter was soooo much more fun with the kids. We loved watching them hunt for their eggs and open up their Easter baskets. I hope that they are able to come out for more holidays.
Over Easter Cosmo discovered his favorite toy of all time... an Easter egg! When the kids had their Easter eggs out Cosmo got one and started chasing it around like a crazy cat.
Here they both are playing with the egg. Now it's October and Cosmo still has eggs all around our house that he chases on a daily basis. I think that he likes the way that it moves around. He breaks them in half and chases them.
