good, then this will make sense to you. the hilarious boy pictured above said this after getting out of the bathtub and looking at his shriveled pruny post bath hands:
I must admit I am amazed cole made it till 8:30 before begging to get us out of bed and see if the easter bunny had come.
and after he raced down stairs he found that the easter bunny did not disappoint!
his fav was of course the "PRINCESS AND THE FROG!"
and ali found a basket full of "pretty's"
which cole lovingly helped place in her hair...
(please take a moment to appreciate the bead head on both our children.)
good thing she's tough... after all that practice with mom learning how to do girl hair!
and look at that lovely finished product.
she seemed to dig both the candy and the lamb (or doggie as she called it) as much as the jewelry.
and as for mom's easter bunny spoils...check it out, don't be jealous...
here is justin modeling my AWESOME gift.
(I love that he was funny enough to buy this for me)
ah Becca, thanks for turning me onto the world of the snuggie!
if you can tear your eyes away from that amazing shot, we will move on to the hunt!
in actuality the hunt took place before going through baskets, there was no holding cole back from that!
he jumped right in and taught ali how it was done.
and she caught on quick.
in fact she didn't want to risk having to loose one of her finds to her bro...so she tried to carry them all.
she eventually followed cole's lead and put them down.
she got pretty into it...especially when she found out there was candy inside!
as if this was not fun enough already!
some required dad's assistance to get into.
cole loved his loot.
as did ali.
one of the things the easter bunny brought cole was a notebook to write in. we turned around while fixing dinner to find cole sitting on a stool writing.
no prompting, he was just writing what his little heart desired, which included his name. "perfectly" written on that tiny line.
we are so grateful for the blessing of being together on this Easter Sunday and for the sacrifice that was paid so we can be together forever.
daddy is her hero.
she trusts him with anything.
they are best pals...
just a few of my summer favorites.

as you can see they slowly move their way back as she gets more hair.
and I am so loving that.
but then...
maybe I would love anything about her cute 'lil noggin'.
ali was mesmerized from the get go.
she wanted to be in the middle of all the action.
and when we made her wait a minute or so she started amusing herself...
which of course amused us.
a lot.
but then it was back to business.
cole was very into this...
we decided to let cole dye them, while ali was restricted to washable paint.
she didn't seem to mind.
cole loved every minute of his crafty adventure...
as did daddy, check out his BYU egg...
