Easter Afternoon

After church and the babies took their naps we headed down the street to PawPaw and Nauna's house to celebrate with everyone. All the norms were there... plus my family and Allie's family. It is always so nice that Joy and Dickie include our families. Having everyone at the same place is wonderful and the babies don't have to be bounced all around town ;). 
Joy and Dickie had everything perfect! Dinner was delicious, the house was decorated amazing and with such cute table decor, and the time spent with our families was wonderful. 
The babies were able to open their easter baskets, play outside, and they received a special surprise from Nauna and PawPaw... BABY DUCKIES! These ducks were a hit... and Bennett literally almost strangled one to it's death... but it Survived! Not the gentlest of babies ;). 
Thank you SO much to PawPaw and Nauna for opening your house to our families! We will always cherish the memories of everyone together!


 "hey there Tripper, you ready to get into some mischief?"




 Loving their ducks!
There were 4... one for each baby...
Donald, Daffy,... and I forget the other two names :(
 Poor duck was about to receive some baby hands around it's neck




 "uh-oh"... "I swear I didn't mean to Mom"








 Time for some Easter basket fun!



 "Hey The Dude"... "what's that silly thing on your head?"
 "Hey Tripper"... " don't be looking at me funny, check your self out"
 Of course fighting over the same thing ;)


 Check this sucker out...
 and where it ended up :)

 Silly Boy!







Hope EveryBunny had a Very Hoppy Easter!
P.S. No ducks were ever wounded and after a few weeks were dropped off at a nearby pond. Where they hopefully are frolicking in the water enjoying every second of not having to be held by babies ;)

HE has Risen

Easter morning our babies woke to lots of of surprises from the easter bunny! 
Jesus had risen and we were ready to celebrate this special holiday!
 Bennett was the first baby up, so he got the chance to check out his loot a little early
 ... & he was quite excited!

 ... of course like most boys, he loves anything with wheels
 Arrington was soon awake and Daddy brought her down the stairs to show her all her surprises

 ... sista was running as fast as she could to check everything out

 Love those baby heads!
 Bennett loved his carrot golf club ;)...
 ... & Arrington's basket was full of Elmo surprises
 Silly Daddy!
We had plans to meet PawPaw and Nauna at church that morning, along with Peyton and Parker. 
When we started to get the babies ready for church we soon realized that Arrington was not feeling too well and had a fever :(... I swear she has came down with something every holiday this year. We thought that she was starting to feel better, so we headed out for church. When we arrived she was still burning up and you could just tell she didn't feel well!  


Laying in Nauna's arms. 
Right after this I figured it was time for Arrington and I to pack it up and head back home for some snuggles and a little rest.
