Happy Easter!

We had a great Easter weekend!  Austin and Colton were able to go to the March of Dimes Easter Fundraiser at the Crossroads Mall in Fort Dodge.  They spent a couple hours there, riding rides, finding Easter eggs and playing some games.  They both got back to Annie and Papa's with a bucket of little toys, candy, and Easter eggs.  Austin had some concerns that the Easter Bunny would not know that we were going to be in Fort Dodge on Sunday morning so at first he was hesitant to leave Cedar Falls, but boy was he excited on Sunday morning.  Austin ran downstairs to see if the Easter bunny came and Papa overheard him say, "No Way!" and then he ran back upstairs to wake up Brian, Colton, and I.  He was so excited to tell us that the Easter Bunny brought toys and candy! 
 

Austin was very interested in the Easter baskets and enjoyed pulling everything out and telling us what he had received.  Colton was content walking around and finding one egg at a time.  Colton would find an egg, open it up (which was a bit of work sometimes), then get so excited over whatever piece of candy was in it, and then would sit down and eat the candy before finding the next egg.  He definitely loved that there was so much candy involved with Easter!  The Easter bunny hid about 40 eggs!  It turns out this may have been too many so Brian ended up finding the ones that the boys gave up on.  Nick and Courtney joined us in Fort Dodge after church and we had a great Easter dinner.  The boys got outside to play for a little bit, but the wind forced us to spend most of the weekend indoors.  It was a fun weekend!
This picture is of the boys finding the eggs the Easter bunny left in their shoes.  And then my camera battery died!
