This year, Easter was relatively low key at our house. Which of course I loved, since Easter is my least favorite holiday!
We took the kiddos to our city's Easter egg hunt on Saturday morning with our friends. As you can probably imagine, it was crazy! They had sections quardened off based on the different ages. Last year, we only had one child in the 0-2 area, but this year we had the baby, plus a 0-2 and one in the 3-4 year olds. Luckily, Mike's Dad and Step Mom came with us, so they took Ian to his section, Mike took Mason, and the baby and I tried to get pictures of the whole thing!

Then, it was time for my favorite Easter tradition...brunch at The Little America Hotel!!! I look forward to this all year=) This year, we asked my parents to watch the babies for us and we were just going to take Ian. We made a big deal out of it. We got all dressed up (even the little ones because they were going to church with Grandma and Grandpa) and we loaded up the car. As we were driving to my parents house, Ian was asking where we were going and we excitedly told him about the brunch. (He went with us last year, but he couldn't remember.) When he realized that we were going somewhere to eat, he quickly decided that he would rather go to church with Grandma and Grandpa! He hates to eat anything, and he didn't want to miss out on a fun outing with the grandparents! So as it turned out, we left Ian and Logan with my parents and we took Mason with us instead.

| We sure love this sweet boy!! |
It was SO much fun!!! Instead of taking our oldest child, whom we would have had to constantly beg to eat his food, we had Mason, a.k.a. Hank the Tank, who couldn't get enough!!! I honestly think he ate more than I did!
Then we went home for naps before we got ready to go back to the Grandparents house that evening. And of course, I had to get some pictures of my sweet boys in their matching Easter shirts! Aren't they just adorable?!?!?
Then it was back to Mom and Dad's for some yummy dinner and Grandma's annual Easter egg hunt for the grand kids.
