Easter Morning

The Easter Bunny came last night and left some eggs all over our yard. Lex had a great time gathering them up. Here are some pictures.

Austin was there, too!

Austin has been a bit neglected in all the Easter frenzy. He was there, though! Here is the proof.

Cookie Decorating

I spent Friday night making sugar cookies for Lex to decorate. Many of them turned out to be a disaster, but a few were usable. On Saturday Lex decorated them. He used an entire bottle of sprinkles on just one cookie. Here are the photos.

Another Lex ABC Video

Just because I love it so much, here is another Lex ABC video. I like how his voice gets all scary in the middle of it.

Easter Hunts

Saturday morning we got the kids up early and went to an Easter hunt put on by the county. Lex had a great time and I think he did pretty good! A video is below.

After that hunt was over, we went over to another hunt at a local elementary school that was put on by a church. I have to tell you, the church one was better. They had better candy and seemed more organized.

Lex's Photography

Lex has been obsessed with taking pictures lately. Unfortunately, he is having trouble realizing which way the camera goes. I thought his photography was cute, though!

Boys on the Lanai

I thought these pictures were cute and wanted to share. Austin looks so much older in a few of these, I can't figure out why. Please ignore the sad state of our plants. We had a frost this winter that killed a lot of our trees. That banana tree in the background will survive (thank goodness since it is my favorite), but many of our palm trees perished.

Toby's Final Four Party

I posted these photos on Facebook, so I'll keep it short here. On Saturday we went to Toby's second annual Final Four party. We were lucky enough to be at the first one, so we couldn't miss this one! Last year Lex was the only kid in attendance, but this year the place was crawling with children. Lex quite enjoyed that. They went swimming, played with Legos, and just hung out. Austin was busy working on getting his second tooth in that day, so he appreciated all the extra hands to hold him.

Last year we won about $50 at this party, but this year we just lost money. It is true that gambling does not pay, I guess!

Really gross

We were on our way somewhere in the car recently when Jeremy noticed this dead snake on the side of the road in our neighborhood. Of course, we had to take photos of it so we can identify it online later! We identified it as the Eastern Diamondback Rattlesnake, and figure someone must have been there before us and cut off the rattle. Here is more about this snake if you wanted to know more.
I am just glad it wasn't in our yard. Watch out, Chris and Paula, it was closer to your house than ours!
