Easter Sunday

We spent our Easter Sunday this year by relaxing and enjoying what the Easter Bunny brought us, an afternoon at church, and a great dinner and Easter Egg Hunt at the Hissongs!
Lauren, happy to be home with her snack cup!

Brooklyn and Lauren racing up the stairs! This is all I could manage to get as I begged them to stop and take a picture.

Brookie and Aunt Pacey (Stacey.) Brooklyn sat on Aunt Stacey's lap and ate an ENTIRE piece of ham!

Uncle Mike and Katie, getting their baskets ready for "the hunt!"

Lauren found one!

And Brooklyn found 2!

Then she was done.....ready to get inside those eggs!


Next we did some "bubble time."
Moppity MAP and Katie making some serious bubbles!

And ending the night with another cute picture. (Tyler and Katie Bug)

Easter and "the BUNNY"

Here we are at the annual POTATO (Parents of Twins and Triplets Organization) Easter event, which this year happened to be at the park behind our neighborhood! It was so fun to see the girls at the Easter egg hunt. Katie was ALL about getting her very fair share of candy! The babies were happy finding one egg and just sitting down to see how this whole thing worked.




Brooklyn REALLY wanted to get the goodies out of her egg!




Lauren and Brooklyn racing to catch all the eggs!






Katie and her friends (Evy and Forest) all waited so patiently for the race to start.



Katie and Evy with the Easter Bunny who hopped in to say hi to the kids!




We also enjoyed the playground before we left. (Brooklyn, Katie, Lauren)



Those perfect family photos are just not in the cards for us for the next few years. :)



If they only knew who filled the eggs!

(Katie, Chris, Lauren, Easter Bunny, Brooklyn, Chantelle)


Lauren and Brooklyn with their good pals Aidan and Owen. The boys are 2 months older and live just a few houses down from us. Its perfect!

We LOVE "Pawa!"

Katie just loves her Aunt Kara! She is working on her "L"s, so at the moment she is more commonly known as "Pawa." Someone who didn't know it is a nickname asked me about my sister "Paula"....I just had to laugh. :)
I was at a church meeting when Kara got here and within minutes she had Katie on a little "outing." Katie came back super hyper with traces of chocolate and ice cream all over her clothes. Hmmmmmm

We can't wait for Kara to visit us again. She should be here in just a few short weeks!



Exciting times at our house

PAPA came to visit!!! All the girls in the house were spoiled this past week when Papa came to visit. Katie, Lauren and Brooklyn knew that meant they could get and DO about anything and for me that meant a little "time off" :)
They played games!

And Papa helped to give baths!!! We miss you Papa and hope that you come and visit again soon!!!!!
