Easter...Saturday

We had a great Easter this year. It was so nice to be with family, relaxing and just having fun. Here are a few pictures of our Saturday Easter adventures: First we had to see what the Easter Bunny had brought us! Emily's favorite gift was the BUBBLES! She loves blowing bubbles and she also loves spilling them!

Here she is with her new "Pooh" outfit and her bubbles. I don't know why she has the silly face!

Then we went to the Beat the Banker 4.01K to run our race. It was a lot of fun. (See the post below)

After the race in Hurricane, we rushed over the Washington City Easter Egg Hunt.

We actually missed the Hunt by one minute. When we got there, they said "Go" and by the time we got out of the car and to Emily's age group, the candy was gone! We were bummed but then we found my sister and her kids and they had gotten a lot of candy so they threw some on the ground and Emily had her own little Easter Egg hunt and that was good enough for her.


"TaDa!" She is showing off her favorite candy...SUCKERS!


Emily liked putting all of her candy in her basket. Thanks for helping Uncle Chad.

That is one happy family!

Here are some cute cousins after the Easter Egg Hunt.

When we got home, it was time for lunch. We decided it was time to teach Emily how to make her own peanut butter sandwich. She loved helping!

"WEEEEE!!!"

Each year all of the Morwood's get together for an Easter picnic. This year we had it at the Santa Clara Elementary where my aunt works. Emily loved playing on the slides and swings.

She especially loved playing with her cousins!

Here are some of my family members enjoying our Sloppy Joe's and potato salad.

The highlight of the picnic is the BASEBALL GAME! We don't play with teams, and we don't keep score. Every time we get someone out, we rotate positions until we are up to bat and the person that got out heads to the outfield to get into the rotation. If we catch a fly ball, the person that catches it automatically gets to bat and the batter switches positions with the one who caught it. It is so fun!

After the picnic, we went home and colored Easter Eggs. Emily loved coloring eggs. She would pick up the eggs and throw them in the color making it splash every where! She thought that was great. Needless to say, some of the eggs ended up broken but that was okay.

Then she would try to get them out with the scoop. When she couldn't do it, she would hand the scoop to me and say "HELP!" It is a good thing our counter top is dark because it would have been stained but we had fun.

Here are our finished products, aren't they pretty!

Here is Emily loving hard boiled eggs, her new favorite snack!

It was a great day, but very long. We were tired that night.
