We have had such a good time celebrating Easter this year. The best part is that our cousins are here! Samantha and Nathan arrived with Grandma Jean last Wednesday. We have been having a blast with them. Ellie is in 7th Heaven.

We have been hunting eggs like crazy! Yesterday we went to the West Point City egg hunt. There were tons of kids there, but we still had fun and collected a bunch of eggs. We also took a picture with the Easter Bunny. Definitely a highlight for Ellie. Next we were off to Grandma Jean's for another egg hunt and Easter party. The Allred family egg hunt is one of my favorites at Easter. Maybe it's because the eggs are always hidden in the same spots...I don't know. It just feels like tradition! After lunch we colored eggs and just hung out. It was a good day.

Coloring eggs with the cousins.

We got up early this morning to see if the Easter Bunny made it to our house. As usual he got carried away. Ellie found flip flops, bubbles, and sidewalk chalk. She also found Mario Kart for the Wii. The boys thought their goldfish and Pez were cool.


After church Mike and Hope invited us over for yet another egg hunt. It was way fun. They live in a fancy house on the mountain so there were tons of places to hide eggs. Rumor has it that there were close to 600 hidden eggs! They also have a fun swing set that Ellie loves. The kids had a blast. Unfortunately, my camera's battery was dead by then... All in all it was a great Easter for the Cook's!
