Easter 2012

 We spent Easter in Searcy again this year.  Morgan, Jamie, J. David, and Myles were in Searcy to see Jamie's sister, Natalie, perform in Spring Sing at Harding University.  Lindsay came into town too.  My parents hosted us all.  We had a wonderful time together and doing several Easter activities throughout the weekend.  Eden and J. David were glued at the hips and had a blast together.  They never stop playing and Myles wants to be right in the middle of them.  He is getting so big and loves being able to play with them when they allow it.  Friday we just hung out and the Crumbaugh's came over for dinner. On Saturday, the runners (my dad, Morgan, Lindsay, Michael, and I) woke up early and went on a ten mile run at 6:30 am.  We finished that up and then raced to get ready and eat lunch before heading out to Harding's Easter Egg Hunt on the front lawn.  The kids love this and it is so pretty there.  That afternoon before dinner and Spring Sing we dyed Easter eggs.  Eden and J. David loved this and could have dyed eggs forever.  Then we went to Spring Sing.  Eden LOVES Spring Sing.  All the music, singing, and dancing is right up her alley=)  She watched the entire thing and they even had loud pyrotechnics and they didn't phase her or J. David at all.  Sunday was all about Easter and we did another egg hunt that afternoon.  Tons of pictures to follow:

Love these two.  They love each other SO MUCH!


 What a handsome, handsome little boy!!!  Don't you LOVE his curls?  They could not be more perfect.


 Morgan with Myles and Harper.


 Mom and Dad with their grand kids.  Even Harley made the picture=)



 ROARRRR!!!!!  Myles was scaring everyone with his dinosaur.  It was the funniest thing and he did it for thirty minutes straight.  He would go up to everyone and roar and we would all pretend to be scared. He thought it was the funniest thing ever and of course it was!


 LOVE THIS PICTURE!!


 Eden's way of walking to the egg hunt.  Very silly.


 Waiting to be let loose.

 Dying Easter Eggs

 Easter Sunday.  Are they not the cutest?

 There's Aunt ZiZi.  Love this!

 Can you tell how tired Harper is?  She wouldn't sleep during church which was her nap time so she was extremely tired and her eyes kept watering.




 Harper getting into her first Easter basket.  I missed Eden getting into hers:(


 Trying to get all four together didn't quite work out for us.

 Love these of Harper.  She finally started hamming it up for the camera.  


 This is the sweetest thing.   J. David is so precious!



 Easter egg hunt.  We hid eggs and they would rush out the front door to find them.  FYI: the plastic bags are because the eggs started sweating and the dye running so we didn't want it all over their real baskets.  





 "Where are all the eggs?"

 "Got one."


 Harper woke up towards the end so she got to watch for a little bit.  Next year, Harper will be looking for eggs right along with them.
