Cookie Dough Thief

So last Friday my friend Jennie Raye gave our family a tub of cookie dough. Her husband Logan loves cookie dough, but when he went to Costco he bought the wrong kind...claiming that all cookie dough is the same. And found out he was wrong. So I said I would take it, my boys love cookies and then I would also have an easy snack to make for my nursery. Well Nicklaus saw me making cookies Sunday morning with said cookie dough; so this morning I was putting some laundry in and he walks up to me holding the container and started asking for cookies. I told him no, we can make cookies later and put the dough away. I go to get dressed and I see him running away as I walk back into the room. Lo and behold this is what I found him doing...

No wonder he is such a chunker!

Happy Easter the final chapter

HAPPY EASTER SUNDAY

We woke up and the boys were so excited to find their baskets and new motorbikes

from the Easter bunny.

Noah kept doing his Superhero pose, because he now has a Superhero bike :-)

 They took a race around the yard

while Nick dragged his bag around with him



After church we went to Grandma Wendy's house for a

and Easter egg hunt and dinner

 

Best quote from the whole day was Noah

"Mom, I'm proud of myself for going to church today"

I'm proud of you too Noah!

Happy Easter part two!

Saturday we went over to Collin's cousin's house for a pre-Easter celebration. We walked over to the park and hunted for eggs.

 Riley got her first skinned knee,

She couldn't walk up the hill, just kept rolling down. Even just trying to get her to sit on the hill she would roll.

Think I need to call her rolly polie now

Noah ate most of his candy before we even made it back to the house,

and Nick would barely leave my side.

After the egg hunt we went back to their house and had a BBQ and visited the rest of the time. All in all a perfect way to end the afternoon and get the boys excited for Easter Sunday the next morning.

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter Everyone!

Good Friday

This is a fun filled weekend! We started it off with a little Easter Egg Hunt at Golfland Sunsplash (where Courtney works). The kids had a blast looking for eggs. Riley just wanted to hold the eggs and not put them in her bag. And Noah ended up with a bag full of them, and we had to put most of them back. (Each kid had a limit of ten eggs)

That is a pretzel in her mouth- she would NOT give it up!

And we ended the night at Grandma Wendy's house to dye some eggs,

 Noah decided if the eggs were done by smelling them.
