Easter 2012

So, I guess it's about time I put in my Easter blog!!  It'll be a quick rundown, but it was a great day and the kids had a ton of fun!!

A few days before Easter we actually decorated eggs!!  Now I always meant to get after shots, but I don't think that I did seeing as I don't have any!!  Evan and Brayden each had a themed "egg holder".  Evan had pirates and Brayden had outer space.  It was a lot of fun for them to decorate there egg characters for their themed holders.  They had fun. . . and just to proof what a smart Mom I am, the babies were in bed when this all went down!!!  SO MUCH BETTER!!! :)

We had a wonderful easter egg hunt the day before Easter.  The kids got to look around the yard for the eggs.  There were PLENTY to go around.  Here is Addison finding one.

 Here is Andrew finding one, or two, or three!!

Here is Brayden all done finding some. . . the older kids were so quick I didn't even get pictures of them looking!!!

Here's them all at the table with the friends we had over, going though their eggs.

I finally got a picture of Evan. . . he was at the table before I even found him!!

Isn't Andrew cute.  He found the perfect use for that basket of his!!

Of course I had to make a carrot cake!!  and yes, it is ACTUALLY carrot cake inside!!  It turned out cute.

This is Easter morning when the kids found their hidden baskets.  Addison PROMPTLY emptied hers all out, separated the grass from the candy and put the candy back in her basket.  She was the only one to get rid of the grass.  I guess she understands its true value!! Oh, and Addison had my old purple hugga bunch (that I had as a kid) in her basket.  You can barely see it in the picture.  She loves it!

Andrew looking at his Mater Truck that was in his basket.

Brayden got another pirate (Jack Sparrow) for his pirate ship from his birthday!

Evan got a human skeleton to put together.  He loves it!!

I made these YUMMY orange rolls. . . just made them a bit TOO big.  They fell all over the place and my oven was full of smoke because of it!  They were good though.

This is my cute Addison in her Easter dress.  Yes, I made it. . . it turned out ok.  I learned a lot, and she was SUPER cute so overall it worked out.

I never get tired of taking pictures of her cuteness!!  All my kids have such super cute moments.  I'll show you a few in my next blog post!  

Well, that was Easter at the Cobb household this year.  So fun.
