Easter Weekend

We've had a nice, busy weekend. 
Friday evening we had our friends Colleen & Mike over...  only including two of their 4 girls. We had a great time catching up with them.  Cali and Kayson played really well together and Cora showed off for Shae.  Shae certainly learned some things.  ha.  

Saturday morning we just hung out at home.  It was wonderful having Ryan at home (he didn't have to work), it makes such a difference when he's home on Saturday mornings!  Anyway, we just played and hung out.  I cleaned a little and got some laundry done.  Saturday after lunch we headed to Clarion to spend some time with my family.  We left at 12:30 hoping Cora would sleep instead of scream in the car... she didn't scream, but she sure didn't sleep very long.  Big bummer.  We instantly were outside at the farm and just enjoyed the wonderful weather.  

Saturday evening the adults and big cousins (Ash & Hope) went out for supper...  Eden, Lindsay & lil Ryan stayed with Kayson and Cora.  Cora had a TERRIBLE time watching us leave, which broke my heart...  Apparently it did last quite awhile and eventually ("after a long time" said Eden), she stopped crying, but still didn't want to do anything.  Meanwhile, we did enjoy our supper out.  

This morning we were up and at 'em early.  We went to church (which is a reminder of why we don't go regularly - wow, Cora is busy.  Kayson was great.)  Then back out to the farm for a great lunch and more playing and enjoying the nice weather.  Cora was off today - very whiny, not happy, only wanted to be held.  (Not much fun).  I layed her down around 12:30... but it was a short 45 minute nap.  This didn't help her mood any... :(  We tried to keep her busy...  outside time, etc... but she wasn't having it.  She wouldn't eat anything... blah blah blah.  Of course we thought she was tired... so we hopped in the car around 3:30...  she babbled and danced and talked the ENTIRE time until we were less than a mile from home.  THEN she closed her eyes.  REALLY!??!  Kayson on the other hand, slept for about 45 minutes of the ride - but swore up and down to us that he wasn't tired.  Oh these kiddos!!!  :)

We got home and figured we might as well wear them out more - fresh air!  We played outside for a couple more hours, then bed - and they both went to bed great.  :)

Here are some fun pictures from the weekend.  
Playing at Grandma & Papas - she wouldn't really play on the ground.  Weird child.
Pretty girl.
Such a good picture - except Cora's eyes are closed. :(
Hardy cousins, plus Greg!  Cora wouldn't stand with them.  UGH!  :)
Puzzle/quiet time before heading to Clarion
Dying Easter eggs!
The kids had so much fun doing this!!
My loves.
Ryan and Kayson = BUDDIES!
