Easter Weekend Marathon Day 2

Saturday we had 2 parties attend. One was a birthday party for Kevin's brother Jeff and his nephew Skylar. The other was my family Easter party. The birthday party with Kevin's family was filled with great people and as always, GREAT FOOD! (Thanks Michele) Kevin's brother Jeff flew in from Denver for his birthday so it was fun to have him there. Zack loves to get together with all of his cousins and aunts and uncles, he always gets lots of attention. It's always fun to see he and Bella together too. They are still almost the same height though Bella is half as wide as Zack. I didn't take any pictures at that party, i'll have to get some from Michele and add them later.

After the birthday party we drove home from SL to get our things for the next party. The Easter party was at my parents house. We drove up and I got excited because there was a special surprise waiting there for me!


Whitney!


My cousin Katie had her baby on Thursday (the 9th) My brother and his wife had her 2 boys and were at my parents for the party. So on their way home from the Hospital Katie had to stop and get her boys. I got to hold her for about an hour. It was so fun! She is so precious! Zack liked her too. My mom was holding him so I went and sat by them so he could see the baby. He would whine at me if I tried to walk away.

I think Whitney is Lily's favorite now. Lily is such a little mommy. She loves to hold Zack but now he is as big as she is. The other day she was holding him on the floor and she fell over backwards from the weight. I think she is glad to have a smaller baby around to hold. It's hard to believe that Zack was almost 2 pounds smaller than her! She seems so tiny to me.

Here is Inspector Zack, he kept crawling over to climb on the car seat to check her out.

Next on the Agenda: The Easter Egg Hunt!

All the kids lined up ready for someone to say "GO". The thing is, we didn't know who was in charge so they had to wait a minute for us to figure that out and say "GO".Bella and her loot


Zack, trying to figure out how these things work. He kept hitting them together and the candy would fly all over.



Lily and Alex

After dinner......

It was cake time!



The kids and the coveted bunny cake. Since they like to blow out candles my mom decided to light the thing up. Before we let them blow them out my Dad led us in some sort of Bunny death song that had the tune of "Happy Birthday"

The kids picked what part of the bunny they wanted to eat, all ears.

Not very many people had any cake and I was feeling kind of bad, but we were all so stuffed from our Easter feast I didn't blame them. Kevin had a piece of course, immediately he told me it wasn't very good. I had a piece and it wasn't. I should have done chocolate frosting! Next time maybe i'll make a double layer bunny with filling in the middle or something. But I will do chocolate frosting and probably not piped with stars.
