Happy Easter!

Thank you Jesus, for the gift of yourself!

Here we are in prayer.
Ready for Easter Sunday Mass.

Jude at the CYO Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday.

Since we helped hide the candy, we were a little confused when they finally said we could pick it up and keep it.

Dominic helps one of the CYO kids hide candy.

Easter at Home

In preparation for Easter, we made sugar cookie dough. We love to help and Momma tells us we are great helpers!

After we let the dough chill, we rolled it out and cut the cookies in the shapes of bunnies, eggs and houses.

(Good thing we weren't taking these cookies anywhere. I don't know how appetizing they might be to others now that they know we made them in our underwear!)

Then on Saturday morning we colored our Easter eggs.

Here's Dominic's egg!

This was so fun!

Here I am creating a masterpiece!

This is the only video that would fit on here, not too exciting but you get the idea.

Just a few cute pics

A Little Dirt Never Hurt...

Lucky for us, part of our yard is now a mud pit. Perfect for playing in.

These pictures don't even do it justice. We were much dirtier in person.
There are tennis shoes under all that mud.

Mom made us strip down outside. She said something about just shampooing the carpets. We played in the mud AND got to take two baths, what a day!

Fun with Friends

So this first pic has nothing to do with friends, but I'm sure all of our friends will get a kick out of it.

However, we had a special treat last week. Our friends Aidan, Isaac and Joachim came for a visit.
It was a perfect day for playing outside with bubbles and friends. Whoever thinks that 5 boys under the age of 3 will sit still for a picture is crazy!!
(Jude, put that away, nobody wants to see that!)

Boys will be boys

We love hanging out with Baby Ashley and teaching her everything we know...

(although she is probably taught plenty by her twin big brother and sister)

We know all about hiding in the closet to devour a scrumptious, yet forbidden snack of...
Doritos.

Maybe if we close our eyes, Mom won't see us.

Oops, I think we are in trouble!



And now, a demonstrational video on pestering your brother, screaming, giggling, body slamming and just being a kid.

Pizza, Pizza!

Our Mom has been trying to find different ways to entertain us, so yesterday she let us make our very own mini pizzas.

First, we rolled out the dough

Then, we put on our toppings. Some pepperoni and cheese. Oops, Jude you missed!

Of course, I had to try the cheese to make sure it was fresh. Then Jude had to try MY cheese too.
Then for the final product.

The best part: eating our creations!
