Happy Easter

Happy Easter everybody! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday weekend and were able to enjoy all the fabulous weather with friends and family!
We started our Easter weekend off on Good Friday by taking Carter to get a spring chicken....and as much of a concrete thinker that he is, he named the chicken "chic".
Above, Carter is taking "chic" out of the box once we got home and kissing her through the crate that has now become her little home.
Our Spring Chick!
No need to worry, the sweet little chicken will be well cared for at my friend Jill's farm once she is too big for us to handle. Until then, we will continue playing with her and watching her grow!


Then on Saturday, Carter had a few guests over for an Eggcellent Party! They had lunch, colored eggs and made crafts! I think that a good time was had by all.

Carter's party guests sitting down for their Easter lunch....don't they just look too cute in their bunny ears?!

After lunch it was time to color eggs for the big egg hunt at Nana's on Sunday.

The cousins and their bunnies pose for pictures after an afternoon full of food and fun!

just a few pictures of the party decor!


Easter morning we were up bright and early to head to church but not before Carter checked out his Easter Basket. Carter really seemed to enjoy all his little gifts especially his bug catcher and magnifying glass. He also got a Buzz Lightyear kite and the Kung Fu Panda movie, which has already been watched and re-watched!
Then it was off to church.
and on to Nana and Papaws for Easter morning brunch which was so completely yummy and egg hunt which was fun!!

Carter takes a break mid-hunt to see if the eggs are all they are talked up to be....must have been because he got up and kept on hunting for a few more minutes anyways until he gave that up to play!

And their off!!
Baby Kalen was there too but not really into hunting this year. Cannot wait to see him out there with all the little ones again next year!

We concluded our little Easter weekend by spending some time with all the Wynberry's at Uncle Tim and Aunt Traci's house. Carter had fun, as always, playing with the boys. The rode bikes, did stunts, jumped ramps, decorated cookies and hunted eggs.

We are just so thankful that all of our family was able to be in town to spend time with us this weekend. We had just a good time seeing everybody and Carter had so much fun playing with all his cousins. We are so lucky to be from such awesome families!!

Papaw and I are so blessed to have such a wonderful family! We enjoyed watching the kiddos doing all of their Easter activities. They were so cute at their "luncheon", they enjoyed their bunny sandwiches and each others company. It's so sweet to watch them all together playing and having fun.
