Cache is finally old enough to sort-of understand the whole concept of Easter egg hunting. So, for fun, we made plans with our friends Carol and Jason to do a hunt at their house and decorate sugar cookies afterwards. It was a lot of fun, even though Carol and I ended up with the brunt of the cookie decorating, it was fun for the kids to cut out the different shapes and get a little messy. Even Cache enjoyed this part. I never know what he's going to like when it comes to getting dirty. He's a little timid when it comes to dirty hands. He asks for them to be cleaned off about every third Cheeto, so it's hard to guess sometimes. But he had tons of fun with the dough and wasn't shy about getting his hands into it!

First cookie cut! |
|
He really liked the bunny cookie cutter. He held onto it waiting for more dough lol |
|
Helping roll out dough! Silly smile |
|
Finished product! ( a little out of order) |
|
Cache's masterpiece...a mound of dough |
|
Such a goof! Popeye Smile! |
|
Poor Jared was sick and tired at this point, but Carol got a shot of him on their couch :) |
|
Can you tell which one is Cache's? I'll give you a hint...it's a bunny, on top of a bunny, on top of a bunny... lol |
Carol and Jason have a 6 year old and a 6 month old. The 6 year old had a friend over and they were all over the place! But they did take Cache out on the trampoline and played with him. He really enjoyed being one the of the "big kids" for a little while. At least until the dog in the backyard (Scooby) got a little too friendly. But they brought him right inside and all was well.
After cookies and lunch, we did an egg hunt! It was a lot of fun to see Cache running around carrying his little pail looking for cookies. Mostly, he had fun running after the big girls and giggling. It took some convincing and lots of pointing to get him to notice the eggs. :) Whenever he found one, he was immediately curious as to what was in them and spent most of his time just eating the jelly beans. But it was fun!

Before hunting began |
|
Found one! |
|
I'm trying to get him to keep his eggs in the basket. He kept loosing jelly beans lol |
|
Left my pail behind! |
|
Taking a break for more candy! |
|
The kids...and me lol |
After the hunt, we all went back inside for a bit, but I couldn't find Jared and Cache...guess where I found them?
Riding Jason's bike! Like father like son :)
Another funny picture. Kind of random, but funny. While we were finishing up the cookies, Cache had wandered off in the house and I was looking for him. He was in Cloe's room...
|
Not sure how he got in there on his own, but he was having fun! :) |
That's it for now! I have another story about camping this last weekend, but that will have to wait for chores to be over :)
