Easter Morning

We asked Cameron what he wanted to do for Easter morning, since we would not be at home.  The Easter Bunny would normally go to our house and leave the kids' baskets, but we asked Cameron if we should email the Easter Bunny and ask him to bring the baskets to Mimi and Grandpa's instead.  He thought about it for a while and decided that he would like their baskets at Mimi and Grandpa's.  The email was sent and the Easter Bunny did what we asked.

Another silly monkey

The Easter egg hunt starts - each one of them found an egg right away

Leah finds her special egg (it had "paper money" inside)

Ooops, Cameron found Leah's basket.  He did really good though, not telling her where it was and just giving a clue or two to the location.

She found it!

She didn't realize that she could bring the whole basket over, so she was trying to pick up each thing and bring it over.

Cameron found his in the coat closet

Happy boy!

I wish we had a video of him going through his basket, it was so cute.  For each thing, he would pick it up, look at it and say "Yes, a _____!!"  He was so enthusiastic about everything, even the socks.  :-P

Finally Leah brought her basket over and started looking through it too.

Comparing basket contents

Someone is very excited about getting chocolate

And someone else is excited about getting a movie

Leah looks awesome in her new shades

Cam dumped out his entire basket for better inspection purposes

Getting the kids to take a nice picture together was not easy

I think this was our best shot

Leah went through her basket about a hundred times, naming each thing in it.  It was cute.

Trying to get a picture with their Easter baskets and their nice Easter clothes.  It was about as successful as earlier (aka, not very!).

The next photo shoot location was outside in front of the flowering bushes.  This was one of the first pictures we took and it turned out pretty darn cute.

And then here are a bunch more.  Mainly very silly, like this one, where Cam started being silly.

Then Leah joined in the silliness

Being silly together

And then dancing

I think I told them to say "Easter Bunny" for this picture.  You can see how well that worked.

Then I told Cam to put his arm around Leah

This one is pretty cute other than Cam smushing Leah's face!

And the final picture of the shoot... more silliness.  At least we got a couple cute ones (and a lot of silly ones)!

After the photo shoot, we packed up the car and headed up to Kim and Jeff's for Easter brunch with everyone.
