Hayden's 1st Easter pt 3

    Hayden had a wonderful first Easter!! He got to spend it with family. Even though he missed NaNa and PaPaw very much and wished they could have been there! It was a gorgeous day! The day started out gloriously!! Uncle Greg got us the most amazing donut holes to eat while we cleaned and got ready for our guests. Hayden even helped clean. He helped chase the vacuum around. LOL

He wasn't even afraid of the vacuum!!

     Once everyone got there we all sat down to the wonderful feast Aunt Myrtle, Uncle Greg, and Aunt Sandy made. It was delicious!! Hayden even got to try mashed potatoes for the first time. He made the funniest faces but he kept coming back for more!

YUMMY!!

Hayden's first bite of mashed potatoes

Hayden's tenth bite of mashed potatoes. Can you tell the difference in his faces?? LOL

   After lunch and Kelly, Jeremy, Hannah, and Elise got there we went out Easter we went out Easter egg hunting! Hayden got a Little Tyke toy and $1.50 to put in his piggy bank. But he honestly was more interested in eating the eggs. LOL

Elise wasn't quite sure what to think at first but she very quickly warmed up to the idea!!

Of course Daddy was helping Hayden

Hurray!! Haddy found his first Easter egg!

Uncle Greg was helping Elise find Easter eggs

Hannah and her dad looking for her eggs

Elise had to sit down to pick up this egg. LOL

Do I get the egg or the grass?

Grass it is!! LOL

HAHA!! He just wanted to eat the egg!

   After the kids hunted for Easter eggs we all went back inside so the girls could open the eggs to see what they got. They also opened a few presents. Hayden had to get into action and got to play/eat some wrapping paper. :) It was so much fun watching Hannah and Elise open their eggs and their presents. Elise had Kelly open her eggs and then took whatever was inside to Jeremy. LOL When everything was all cleaned up we all went outside for MENTOS GEYSERS!! I think this was the most anticipated part of the day!! LOL Everyone went outside to watch everything get set-up. It was taken very seriously. There was a wooden tray that been built to keep the Coke bottles from tipping over. It also allowed them to do up to 4 Coke bottles at one time. They had also bought these really neat little contraptions that allowed you to fill it up with the Mentos and then just pull and string and it would drop the Mentos into the bottle while you ran like crazy!! (Ready for an action sequence??)

   After a very long but amazing day it was time to go home. We were all very sad. :( But it's nice to know that we don't live very far away and can go visit again for a weekend. :)
