Hippity Hoppity...Easter in Review

I would like to think that I'm one of those mom's who tries to play it cool on the holidays and not get all carried away, but I seriously can't!  I think it's one of the best things about being a mom and I remember as a kid really loving and looking forward to holidays.  I just can't help myself because it really is so fun!


Our foam Easter bunny and Easter chick crafts.  They were stickers {which the kids loved} and they had lots of fun putting them together!  We then stuck them to our door to enjoy.



It was a crafty kind of day.  Joslyn wanted to decorate a yellow "egg" with fancy sequence.  



Blake loves all things sticky tape and I found this Japanese fabric tape at what we call here in Singapore the "Two Dollar Store."  He loved the stuff and decided that was the best route for his green egg.








Then it was on to coloring in our new Easter activity books!  



Blake's Easter card from Grandma and Grandpa Oleson had these cool little paper punch out bunny cars.  Blake had tons of fun putting them together and playing!  They are still on his bookshelf in his room.  :)



Joslyn enjoying her new Easter book.  Thanks Grandma and Grandpa Oleson!


We are so lucky because our families always think of us and the kids on the holidays.  Grandma and Grandpa Eavey also sent some goodies that we let the kids open before we went to Thailand.  Joslyn loves her Dora book and phone while Blake is especially happy about his airplane, helicopter, and truck set!

Blake thought it was cool!

Joslyn...not so much.

Overall our Easter was a very quiet, but nice day.  We had a picture scavenger hunt in the morning to find eggs and had fun checking out the kids' baskets.  After all that fun, we went out for a yummy brunch.  The rest of the day we just hung out together, playing with new toys and having a few too many goodies!  It was a fun day!
