Easter Weekend in Review

We had an incredibly fast, busy weekend. Thank god the weather was nice. My dad helped me build 2 large planter boxes for Brayden's garden project. Right now everything is still in cups inside the house, we are planning on planting everything this Sat, but need to buy more dirt. I greatly underestimated the amount of dirt we would need. I have already purchased 20 bags, and am thinking I need at least 10 more. Either way they turned out really nice, and am super excited to get the veggies and herbs in there.

After a long day of digging, weeding, and raking we opened a few Pacificos, warmed up the BBQ and put our feet up.

Here is the final product, see I need more dirt:(

Here is our second box for the stuff we are planting that requires some shade, mostly the herbs.

Brayden was sick all weekend so mostly stayed inside on the couch watching TV, but Kuenzie enjoyed being outside in the warm sun!

Once the kids went to bed it was time for the Easter Bunny to emerge and get the house ready. Here are the eggs.....

and here are the presents......

There were very excited in the morning!

BTW, that is marker on my daughters face not bruises!

Then it was time for the egg hunt.

After the egg hunt, we had to get ready for church.

And our second Easter egg hunt.

On our way to Grandma's house!

Where the Easter Bunny also stopped by and left gift baskets!

They got to terrorise my Uncle Todd all day!

And have a third Easter Egg Hunt!

By the end of the day kids were done! It was a very long great day and we have a lot to be grateful for!

On Wednesday we had Brayden's spring program. Look how sharp he looks!

This is Julie his favorite teacher.

Kuenzie was not happy that she couldn't get up there and perform.

Easter Eggs

On Friday night we got our eggs ready for Easter and the kids had a great time getting messy!! We decided to do it without clothes to help avoid their clothes getting ruined. Hope everybody had a great Easter.

Look what we have here!

So I planted a ton of tomatoes (3 kinds), strawberries, and jalapenos, in hopes that enough would sprout. I have been coming home and checking every night! Well last night Brayden and I came in the door and headed straight to our cups and to our suprise look what we spoted.....

Here are all that we planted

And some more...

There are a couple of our cherry and roma tomatoes...

I noticed that there were more this morning, but you get the picture. Hopefully our strawberries and jalapenos pull through!
