Dying eggs for Easter 2014. I felt like Easter snuck up on me this year and spent the last couple of days rushing to get everything done. Really makes me thankful for all the effort my parents put in to making holidays magical
Running from egg to egg trying to find as many as possible!
We spent the afternoon at Papa & Grandmas house. They wanted a picture of all six grand kids and I just cracked up when I saw these.  For the most part all the kids looked pretty much the same but Oliver had a different expression each time!  He is such a character! 
Another wonderful day and thankful for good weather too. 

Cohen's preschool took a field trip to the Children's Museum in Tacoma. This was the first time we had been and it was so much fun.  I didn't see much of Cohen, he was off with his friends but Easton let me follow him around and check everything out!
Cohen, Atticus and Jack at the water table.  These boys had a blast and were soaked once they were done!
Below are pictures from the Children's Museum in Olympia.  Since we had such a great time in Tacoma I thought we should visit this one.  It's amazing!  Its huge and has so many things to offer.  We spent about three hours there and could have probably spent the whole day!  Worth the drive and we'll be going back again. So fun watching them play and discover new things!

We spent the day at Owens Beach a few weeks ago.  It was a beautiful Monday and thought we should take advantage of it.  We packed a lunch and some sand toys and had a great time.  The boys put their toes in the water but that was as far as they went, it was pretty cold!
One of the highlights was this little seal that swam right up to the beach and spent about 45 minutes just laying in the sun.  She was literally a few feet from us and didn't seem to mind all the attention at all.  Easton named her Sandy and cried when we had to leave her.  We also saw dolphins out in the water and a fire rescue boat that was doing some drills right in front of us.  The boys loved it!
