And this years egg rolling contest winner is......!

JORDAN!!
(here he is holding his winning egg)

My apologies for a long post but I need to catch up!
So let me back up and catch you all up! I am a blog slacker, I know it's just there is never time! So here goes. Sunday we received this letter from the Easter Bunny...

It may be hard to read but it basically says that he (the bunny) spoke with Uncle Chris and Chris wanted to do the egg hunt and rolling contest with the boys so he left Chocolate bunnies but would be back later with easter eggs. So, we had a wonderful Easter Sunday and the boys enjoyed their chocolate bunnies and looked so handome in their outfits but could not wait for Uncle Chris to visit...

This picture was taken after church (nap time) not very happy boys. Anyway so Uncle Chris and Grandma and Grandpa came and the boys were excited about the Easter Bunny coming but first on Friday was Jordan's 3rd birthday! So we celebrated that Friday and the Bunny came Friday. Jordan's birthday was a blast, we just spent the day doing things he enjoyed like the park, pretending he was Mermaid, etc...He got ice cream and a treat from Grandma and was thrilled when we took him to Pojo's a fun family place!








We got grandma to play a jump rope game, and grandpa to help Jordan milk a cow...very funny! It was a great day and Jordan had a fun filled birthday! So today the Easter bunny came and we died eggs, had an egg hunt and our annual egg rolling contest! The idea is we take our died eggs and roll them at each other the one who's egg is cracked is out. And on and on till you are down to the final two....there is no price for the winner other than an uncracked egg, but the comedy of it all and the expression on the boys faces when they try to hit each others eggs is priceless! Jordan was the champion of it all! We have had a wonderful week and very busy week but the memories are fantastic and will last for eternity! Happy (late) Easter and Happy 3rd birthday Jordan! Here are our egg hunt and egg contest pictures. We'll be back in a week and a half for Tanner's b-day pics!
