Easter Fun With The Grandkids - April 2011

On Saturday, April 2nd, Madison, Emma and Erika came to spend a few days with us.  Zoe and Lincoln love to play with their cousins so they came over to play.


 We had a craft day centered around Easter

 First we had a coloring contest.  Emma won the most magnificent marker award

 Erika got a prize for the most colorful



 Lincoln won the most squiggly award


 Madison won a prize for the most creative pictures


 Zoe won the best cutter award.  That girls loves her sissors!

 Then we made bunnies using cotton balls and filled the cups with jelly beans

 Madison used her creative skills and made a pig

 Then we made Easter bunny hats.  This is Emma modeling her hat

Then, thanks to Steven McFadden, we all went to the movie "Hop"  It was a great weekend and we all had a lot of fun.  We love spending time with our grandchildren.  They are so full of energy and we were exausted by the time they went home.  Our grandchildren keep us young at heart.

I'm pretty much in love with this post and all the pictures! Fun crafts that you came up with! I'm glad Steve was able to get all of us into the movie. Oh and thank you for letting my kiddos come and play too while Steve and I went out.

That looks like so much fun! I wish I was there to make a bunny cup filled with Jelly beans. Your grand kids are so lucky to have you to play with them!
