Happy Easter
Nathan got me these beautiful flowers for Easter :) He is the best hubby ever!!!!
Nathan is also the best Daddy ever - late Saturday night he ran to wal-mart and bought the boys this basketball hoop!! Since we didn't have to buy a lot (thanks to Grandmas and Grandpas providing all the chocolate) Nathan wanted to get the boys something to go along with their huge kinder eggs we got for them. This basketball hoop is what he came up with; Daddy's love and get to spoil :)
Joshua and Matthew's Easter Baskets
Matthew's basket and football bank...Joshua has declared football to be Matthew's favorite and basketball to be his own favorite. They both LOVE ALL sports though; sport, cars and music is all they play with!

The boys both got an animal towel in their baskets. Matthew's is a dinosaur.

On the way to church Easter Sunday morning.

My beautiful flowers that Nathan gave to me for Easter!!!!
A GIANT kinder surprise :)
The toys in these eggs are actually pretty neat! Joshua got a Tom & Jerry volleyball game.
Matthew got a little game that you fling the divers and try to get them to land in the lifesaver ring in the water...they love them :)
The mailman delivered a day late, so Matthew got his birthday present from G&G Ravert on Easter Sunday!!!
Egg Hunt begins!!!!!
the boys both slept extra long on Sunday afternoon, so we waiting for them to sleep before we started the hunt...
the only problem we had...
when they discovered what was in the eggs, they we done 'hunting'... so we ended up just collecting all the eggs we hid :) oh well! ;)
Marshmallow egg, yummy!
Matthew is such a Daddy's boy! As soon as he sees Daddy, all his attention is towards him! It is so cute, when Nathan picks him Matthew is all smiles and he growls like normal and kicks his feet and hugs Daddy soooooo tight! Nathan absolutely LOVES it!! Who wouldn't :)
Joshua is always close by to help when there are presents around :)
When Matthew saw his ducks he said, "Duck Duck!!!" He loves it!! Thank you Grandma and Grandpa Raver!!!!
what is it with church platforms....? as soon as the boys get up there, they LOVE it!! So, since I wanted to get some pictures of them, I waited until we got to church....that way I could get some good smiles :)
They were having a blast :)
Happy Easter!
Joshua - 2 (soon to be 3!)

Joshua got this basketball with their new hoop, so it took the place of his other basketball for the day, and got to come to church with him :)
Happy Easter! from us (even though this is late)
