Easter Eggheads...

Our Easter weekend happened to coincide with the opening of baseball and soccer season.  So instead of a little road trip, we hung around home and mowed and trimmed the lawn in between games.
Kael and Dax are playing machine pitch ball this year and Ace will soon start coach pitch.  All of the big fellas are playing spring soccer and Ryan is coaching or assisting on any given night.  I am chasing Boone and finger swiping his mouth when he ingests gross things from the bleachers and the ground respectively.  :)
When we weren't at a ball field near you - We participated in the neighborhood Easter Egg hunt.  Booner Bear did justtttt fine thanks to all the tween girls he wrapped around his fingers and coerced into following him around to hold his basket of eggs.
We basked in the spoils the bunny brought us.  
The Easter Bunny included some geodes in the boys' baskets this year so they cracked them open in the wee morning hours and loved finding their sparkling crystals inside.
I was crushing hard on the included eye protection.  I mean - could you die?
And Boone - ever the happy little camper - was just thrilled to be there and have an animal punch ball to experience.
Hi There Blue Eyes.

We colored eggs and all of our fingers outside (because this ain't this mama's first rodeo).
 We truly just enjoyed the nice spring weather - the budding leaves - the quiet time at home as a family in between bursts of hustle and bustle.
I am grateful for our Savior and the reminder of seasons, growth and love.
Happy Spring.
