Easter

I did this egg hunt every year when I was a kid. Now the next generation does it.

Fred got a prize egg but was more excited about the candy.

Stella was mad because she only got two prize eggs. See how many kids there are? And there were only about ten prize eggs. And she got two! (Which is against the rules.) And that was not good enough for her.
Chloe was crying because she didn't get a prize egg. I was not proud of my girls at this moment (except for Stella's ability to get two prize eggs--that was awesome).
Is anyone else ever ashamed of their kids? I'm ruining them.

Stella gave one of her prize eggs to Chloe. We were all satisfied at this point.

Other traditions:

Dying eggs.

Hiding and hunting for the dyed eggs.

A scavenger hunt to find Easter baskets.

Stella's loot.

Fred, Halle & Chloe

We also watched Ashton and Ethan do a triathlon. My kids wanted to do it but I missed the registration deadline.

And we went to the narrows on the Red Hill. Rachel's brace broke and her shoe fell off--that was epic. And Dan was very determined to get his barrel chest through after a chubby, busty lady made it ahead of him. When there's a will there's a way.
