Easter Egg Hunt and Johnny's 1st Birthday

On Saturday we were able to meet up with Grammie and Grandad at St. Therese Church to participate in their Easter Egg Hunt.  Colin hasn't ever done one before (not in our own back yard), so we were pretty pumped!  There were separate areas depending on the kids' age (1-3, 4-6 and 7-9), which made things pretty laid back for the little kids.  They didn't have to worry about getting trampled by the older, more experienced Easter Egg Hunters.

We got there early enough to enjoy a pre-hunt juice box provided by Grammie & Grandad.

As you can tell, there were plenty of eggs for everyone!

Colin and Daddy, waiting to go inside for the eggs.

Olivia and Colin, figuring out which eggs they were going to get first.

And they're off...

Colin did great!

His basket is almost completely full

Just before we opened all the eggs to see what great surprises were inside.

He got lots of tootsie rolls and taffy, plus some plastic frogs and other goodies.

Maggie just enjoyed watching from our arms.

We took Maggie to the doctor earlier this week.  She is back on an antibiotic because she has a bad sinus infection.  But, her ears were clear and so were her lungs, she just has a nasty cough and lots of drainage from her nose.  Hopefully she'll get to feeling better soon.

After the hunt, Colin and Olivia headed over to say hello to the Easter Bunny.

They did great!

Happy Easter!!

After the Hunt, we headed back home to take a nap before going to Johnny's first birthday party.

It was so much fun.  Aunt Katie did an amazing job of decorate their house for the Fireman's theme birthday party.  She is so creative!

Johnny, all ready to dig into his cake!

Singing Happy Birthday to Johnny!!

He dug in.

Poor Grammie had to come and take his cake away from him before he wanted to stop.  

That would've been sugar-overload if he ate the whole thing.

The weather was beautiful and we had a great time celebrating with Johnny.  

Scott, Suzanne and the boys were able to make it to KC for the Easter/birthday celebration, too.  We love it when all the cousins are together, they have so much fun!
