MONSTER TRUCKS!

The boys moved from cribs to twin beds last summer and I couldn't decide how I wanted to "decorate" their room so I just got some blue sheets until I decided what I wanted to do.  I finally got tired of the blue sheets this spring and decided that it was time to get something nicer.  I found a really cute plaid at Target that I thought would be a good neutral and not too themed.  The boys could pick out their own sheets and that would be easier to change as their tastes change.  Unfortunately, I have two very opinionated almost-four-year-olds that did not agree with my decision so back to the drawing board.  They really wanted car beds but anything I found was either too expensive or not acceptable to the boys.  I finally found the monster truck bedding that the boys loved and I got a great deal on it.  I really didn't want a big theme but it's not over-the-top monster trucks and if they get tired of it in a couple years, I didn't spend a fortune on it.  The day it came, I put their beds together while Dave gave them a bath.  When we opened the door to their room, they were soooooo excited.  Hunter kept saying "thank you mommy!  Thank you Daddy!"  They absolutely loved it. 

EASTER

Our Easter festivities started on Good Friday with our 3rd annual egg dying party at Tami's house with Tami, Ginny and Peyton.  Hunter would come to the table and dye a couple, then go play with his racecars.  Harrison would only make orange eggs.  He finally let Peyton use the orange once but then went right back to making his orange eggs.

On Saturday, we went to our church for their annual Easter Egg hunt.  Harrison again got only orange eggs.

                                    Hunting for eggs is hard work

After church on Sunday, we came home to see what the Easter Bunny had brought.  He brought robot t-shirts, a chocolate bunny and some puzzles.  After lunch, we had our final egg hunt of the season in the backyard.  Hunter had all racecar eggs and Harrison had chick eggs and a few orange ones thrown in. 

                                                          Ready for church. 

                                          This is the closest we can get to a good picture of them together.

                                                         Look at all my racecar eggs!

                                                              I got a lot too!

EGG HUNT #2

SUGAR LAND EGGSTRAVAGANZA
The city of Sugar Land hosted an Easter Eggstravaganza on Saturday March 23rd.  It was held at a city park and I just happened to drive by and see the sign for it the day before.  They had egg hunts by age group for the older kids and a continuous egg hunt for kids 4 and under.  They had one area that they just kept putting eggs in and each child got to "find" 6 eggs.  They also had games for the kids to play, food, a clown making balloon animals and a DJ.  The Sugar Land fire department and police department were also there with their vehicles and the kids could climb in the firetruck, the police car and even the police motorcycle.  It was such a great event.  We will for sure go back next year. 

                                                   Waiting our turn for the egg hunt.
