Happy Easter



Easter morning we came home to find little Easter eggs all over the kitchen floor. The boys said "the Easter bunny must have pooped all those eggs out when he came." The egg trail led the boys to the kitchen table where they found their baskets full!


And Wyatt explained that it wasn't really Easter bunny poop because, "you know the Easter bunny actually poops out jelly beans."




They had time to look through all the goodies, eat a little candy, and play with new toys before getting ready for church.
It was a beautiful day to celebrate the death, burial and resurection of our savior!!


And after church, we headed off to Aunt Jane's for an egg hunt!


Cousin Landon was there, but Noah was sick :(


They hunted and hunted....


And searched and searched....


They found so many eggs!!


 In so many cool places!!


They all had a basket full of goody filled eggs!! Some eggs even had a special gold coin they could trade for a prize :) So much fun!!

Even Weston loved running around filling his basket!


Afterwards we headed in to make our own Easter eggs with a no stress, no mess egg coloring kit.....



After the grown up ladies - Me, Rachel, Mom and Memaw - attempted to get everything ready so the boys could come in dye the eggs and decorate with stickers - we realized this no mess, no fuss kit was a bit of false advertising. We almost burned down Aunt Jane's kitchen, nearly cracked all the eggs and had to stressfully figure out the best "process" to get the boys in and out without losing their interest. Whew....

The boys had fun anyway and enjoyed the looking at the silly faced eggs!


After all that fun, we headed down to Hendersonville to visit with Nana and Aunt Cindy's crew before heading back to Portland for church and then dinner with Daddy Jack's crew. 
Just another busy holiday in the Napier house! I love that we have so many places to go and so many people to visit. The boys get to see grandparents, great-grandparents, aunts/uncles, great-aunts and great-uncles, cousins, 2nd cousins and even 3rd cousins at nearly every holiday!! What a blessing to have such a big family so close physically as well as so close in our hearts and lives!!!

Happy Easter!!!!
