Saturday at the Mall

Saturdays we try to get out and do something fun with the kids. Especially while the weather's nice. We had intended on going to the Easter activities at Mother Natures Farm, but it was a bust. Elizabeth suggested we go to the mall instead. So first Andrew took us to lunch at In N Out. We hadn't been there for at least a year. The kids thought is was fun to eat at the tables outside. Then we headed over to the mall. Elizabeth likes to shop the accessories in the teenager stores. So we hit up forever 21, and the boys found these fabulous hats.Famous Daves was promoting their upcoming Grand opening. So the kids got to meet the pig mascot,get balloon animals, and have some ribs. Andrew and Elizabeth were in heaven. She loves them as much as her dad. We had a fun day together.

Elizabeth made us these yummy cupcakes. Grandma J and Papa J sent her the kit for easter. She made them all by herself. Everyone really enjoyed them.Especially Eric.

The kids all climbed on the couch with me to watch conference.Ethan has decided to be my new hair stylist and gave me this awesome hairdo. Then we went on a treasure hunt. The kids had a list of things with pictures of what to find. Each item represented something from the Easter story.I was really impressed with how much Elizabeth understood this year. She truly is growing up quick. I had to be discreet as I tossed a few of the items on the ground as we walked. I figure it wasn't liekly they would find rope, coins, or bread, so I had it all stashed in my pockets. hehe

We had a great Easter. The bunny left an egg hunt for the kids this year. He hopped all over our garden and trailed it through the house. Eric was so excited to see he actually ate the carrots too. The boys were yelling "sugar!" and "chocolate" as they went through their baskets. They're such addicts. We had waffles, eggs, and strawberries for breakfast. The kids though that was special, since they usually get waffles from the toaster, it was cool to have huge belgian waffles.
