The Doerr Family: Easter and all that fun stuff!

So I know I am super late on this post but we've been busy. So here are all our Easter pictures. My mom had all the grandkids over to dye easter eggs. This was something we grew up doing with our grandma so it is a special tradition. The kids were having a great time but we did have one minor problem. After the kids were done, Blake decided he would mix the colors together. He's a boy and likes doing boy things (like experiments) so this seemed like a good idea to him. He accidentally spilled the blue dye all over my moms almost white carpet. It was a disaster. It took my mom hours of cleaning to get most of it out. There is still blue dye in the carpet but most of it came out.

The day before Easter Chelsea and I took the kids to a couple of Easter egg hunts. The kids had a GREAT time and Jack even won a huge easter basket full of stuff and a big stuffed easter bunny.
That evening we met Stan and Ivy for dinner. After dinner we came back to the house and they brought easter bags with lots of goodies for the kids. Of course, the kids LOVE the fun gifts. There favorite being the giant lollipop!

On easter morning we did our usual easter baskets. Emily set out carrots and water for the easter bunny the night before. Matt and I nibbled on them to make it look like a real bunny was here. When she woke up in the morning, the first thing she did was go check the carrots and water. She couldn't understand why the bunny nibbled on the carrots but didn't eat them. She was thinking that the easter bunny missed our house. Kids are so funny. :-)
After that we went to church and then over to my grandparents house for an afternoon full of yummy food, easter egg hunts, good family time, and games.
My parents and most of the grandkids. We couldn't get Lauren in the picture.
