Easter Eggs 2022

 

The kids enjoyed Easter festivities on Saturday morning.  Kyron was cracking us up because if he found an egg, he would shake it and if it didn't rattle (because the prize inside was too large to rattle) he would put it back and move on.  We had to show him a few times that all the eggs had something fun inside, even if he didn't hear it shaking around.













The week before Easter, we took the time to dye some eggs.  The kids enjoyed the 'volcano' and bug kits with their eggs.







Kyron's been phasing out his naps...but anytime he's asked, he insists he's NOT tired.  Ha ha!

Spring Break

 For Spring Break, we did a stay-cation.  Each day we planned activities to do and even had some friends over for a little 'party'.  The big event was camping out in the basement.  The girls helped me set up the tent, we had a picnic dinner (complete with s'mores!), and the girls spent the night in sleeping bags.

Olaf!

 


We finally got some 'snowman' snow in March and tried our hand at creating an authentic Olaf.



I think it's safe to say that we do a better job at creating snowmen than at taking selfies....

Activity Days


This year, Eliana joined the Activity Day Girls for the bi-monthly activities.  At first, Hylie acted like she wasn't too excited about having her little sister tag along, but it sure seems like these two have fun together!  Here they are sporting some hats they created with Sister Anderson.

Snow Fun!

 


After a hefty snowfall, I wanted to see if the little slope in our front yard could provide enough momentum for some sledding fun.  And it did!


Hylie, Lillian, and Kyron made multiple trips up and down the hill and towards the end of our fun, we were finally able to convince Eliana to come out and give it a try!

Kyron's 3rd Birthday

This kiddo was so excited to celebrate turning 3!




For dinner he asked for chicken nuggets, mac & cheese, and applesauce, I snuck in some peas and fruit as well.


Kyron was pretty thrilled with his Thomas the Train cake.






I love that this is how he shows that he is 3 years old with his fingers!

Hylie Lately

The week after Geoff and I got back from our cruise, the school called asking me to pick Hylie.  She was sledding down a hill and managed to run into a pole!  She had quite the bruise on her chin.

We were thankful that she hit her chin and not her mouth!

Towards the end of February, Hylie had the opportunity to do a presentation on Princess Diana.  She got to dress the part and record her report on Lady Di.
