Easter 2018!

Happy happy Easter!

Quick out of focus picture with the wrong lens before we ran off to church. The older 3 did not want to see their baskets before we got home from church so they covered them in playsilks.

He was quite patient...kids had to be dressed to the shoes before they could look, though Finn is the only one who actually looked.

Finn DID want to see his before church and was quite pleased!

Another quick picture before we went in the chapel.

Beginning of the egg hunt after mass.

Easter 2017 and Pea's birthday, part 2

all pics from the good camera, hence the separate post

I know I posted another pic from this same photoshoot but I like it so I'm posting it again! Easter 2017

Pea's 9th birthdday

The kids opened up a store from Pea's bedroom. The neighbor kids loved it! 

Happy Easter!

I finally hired a photographer! The cherry blossom pictures are what I try for every year...ten years later, I finally figured it out...I can't do it all!

Love this pose.

Sean, 10. Looking older!

My Sweet Pea, almost 8...I just noticed the photographer erased her Snowzilla wound on her forehead.

Kieran, 4. This captures his sweet personality pretty well.

Baby Finn is closing in on 1 year. ;(

Easter and other photos

Easter! We didn't have time to do the picture before mass....it's always better earlier rather than later. The wind was blowing and the kids wanted their baskets!

Kieran loves scrubbing dishes and does a pretty good job of it!

Our old homeschool group met up at a trampoline park. The kids loved it and were exhausted, as was Adam!

Pea loved to climb up there and bounce down.

Kieran on his way down.

Cathleen worked very hard at roller skating. She was feeling a little deflated at this point! She fell on her bottom more times than I could count.

Adam flying his kite on a cold and blustery March day. Kids watching from path.

We attended the base easter egg "hunt". 9,000 eggs, divided among 4 age groups. There were more than enough eggs for everyone and the kids loved it. We then attended our old homeschool group's egg hunt later in the week and the kids were up to their ears in candy!

My baby!

Yes, first thing on Easter morning. I think I was mid-yawn.

Kieran on Easter morning.

Only posting for posterity! 

As the weather's been warming up, we've been spending a lot of time on the river path. And off the path, as in this picture.

Out of order pictures. Group photo before the egg hunt on base.

Kieran's age group was second to go. He LOVED it!

My sweet Peeps.

Jelly bean hunt on Easter morning.

Sean scans the room for more jelly beans. 3 days before he got 3-4" cut off his hair.
