Easter Weekend

We had lots of fun this past Easter weekend. We started it off by going to the Lauritzen Gardens that is just down the street from our town home. On Friday they had a time that was specifically for Village Green residents and we were able to do a couple of small crafts, hunt for some Easter eggs in the gardens, get pictures with the Easter Bunny, and ate treats and goodies afterwards! Hailey's favorite part by far was meeting the Easter Bunny :)


Then on Saturday we went to an Easter Egg Hunt at the park that was put on by Village Green . Hailey could hardly stand waiting to run and fill her basket with eggs! It only lasted about thirty seconds, but man it was a rush! :)


Later that day we were invited to one of Hailey's friends birthday party. It was really cute and Hailey had a blast playing with all her friends! It was a fire engine theme and they had a big bounce house and the local fire fighters even came down and the kids got to climb in and check it out! Hailey loved it, I had to fight with her to get her to come out!

Painting Easter Eggs
 
Austin enjoyed chowing on Cheetos while Hailey painted eggs :)

Sunday morning we had our own little egg hunt and the kids got to look through their baskets. We kept with tradition and had sticky buns (my FAVORITE!!!) for breakfast. Of course, then we enjoyed going to church :) It was fun having Wes home for the weekend, especially before he has to hit it hard for finals!

Sick Day

Unfortunately both the kiddos have been under the weather the last couple days. Slight fevers, runny noses, coughs, the whole shabang. I hate seeing either of them sick, it's never fun :( But when I came downstairs after being away for a few minutes this is what I saw.... it melted my heart
 And even though they were sick, they still gave me a smile :)

Aunt Jamie comes to Visit

This weekend we had a special visitor....Aunt Jamie!!! Hailey had been so excited days before her arrival! We all were! Wes picked her up from the Grand Island airport Thursday morning and she stayed until Sunday. We had lots of fun showing her around Omaha. We went to the zoo (of course), the pedestrian state line bridge, some parks, and she even treated me and Hailey to Olive Garden! Unfortunately I had to work one of the days, but luckily Wes was able to take a break off from studying on Saturday. Hailey loved every second of it, let's just say she is quite attached to her Aunt Jamie :) Even Austin was getting in on some cuddle action! Hailey loved having a "sleepover" with Jamie every night! The only bad part about the visit, was the Aunt Jamie-leaving-part. :( Hailey was pretty disappointed the next morning when she woke up and Jamie wasn't here anymore. But...that only means she'll need to come again....Soon!!!
