Z is for ZOO

The Monday after Easter we headed to St. Louis to celebrate the letter Z at the Zoo for preschool. It was a fun trip!

Ready. Set. Go.

My children love maps...

The Whetstone Family (Faith's teacher Karen & classmate Wyatt)

Again with the maps...

And again with the maps...

Z..Z..Z..Z..Z..Z..Z..Z..Z..Z..Z..Z..Z..

Easter

We had a great Easter weekend. We traveled to see a lot of our family.

Sunday @ Grandma Holst's House

Poor boy needs a brother!

Grandma Holst's Egg Hunts are infamous!

Look at all those eggs!

My dad and his brothers (3 of the are 6' 8"!)

Hunting for their Easter basket items at Gramy & Papa's House.

Saturday @ Great Grandpa Don & Grandma Kay's Farm

Ttitus' favorite was the tractor ride.

Hunting Easter eggs around the farmyard.

The men chat while the kiddos hunt.

Easter baskets from Grandpa Rick & Grandma Leeanne

Doing Easter Crafts with the Grandmas.

Easter Bookbags @ Nana's House

(the girls have spent many hours playing with these paper dolls)

Coupon for staying up late- pretty sure she used that one that very night!

Church w/ Nana and Easter Outfits

Why is it we can only get a good picture of two of our children at a time? Three just doesn't seem possible.

Spinning her dress- she is all girl!

Silly girls.

It was a wonderful weekend to spend with all our family rejoicing that Christ is risen!

 Apparently this is the only picture I took of our children on Ester morning. There are no pictures of our children with our family Easter basket. This year it was full of books to add to their Easter collection. They love their seasonal/holiday themed books. However, this picture does capture one of my favorite memories snuggling up Easter morning and reading about the true meaning of Easter as a family.
