Easter Eggs and Sweet Treats!

This years Easter was a lot of fun with our families! My dad and his wife came down for the weekend and had a picnic! Coy loved it, even though his little nose and cheeks got a little sun!He enjoyed watching the water rush by him as we sat next to the bank enjoying our KFC, potatoe salad, olives and some super yummy cup cakes! We watched Jens, Justine, and Eric throw toys into the stream and down the water fall, and we really enjoyed watching my brother Cody and Kaylas husband Kody trying to get them out. Finally the Easter Egg Hunt!!!


Coy absolutely loved picking up the eggs, even though he never really figured out they needed to go into the basket before hitting his mouth... I think all of them have been Coyatized...
This blue egg was Coys favorite! Im not sure if he just like the feel of it on his gums or if he enjoyed the blue on his lips better! Every time we went to take it away Coy would get so upset that he wasnt chewing on it and  he would scream and then cry! We laughed and laughed for all the blue that was on his lips, tongue and his tiny fingers!
We then loaded up the vehicles and left. The picnic was over and Coy was so tired he slept for almost 3 hours! It was awesome! When he woke up we took off up to Pinto for the picnic time with Colby's family.. It was about 6 when we got there and the rain clouds moved in! So, we spent our time in the building with cousins where we ate, played games and told some stories of past get togethers. We also watched Tangled and gathered around the fire place. Unfortunetely this whole time Colby was gone to work so he didnt get to be with us this year for Easter, but he showed up at his dads picnic an hour earlier than he was suppose to! I was soooo happy! After Colby ate we visited for a few more minutes as his mom put Coy to sleep. Then we left because Colby had to get to bed because he had to work the next morning... When we got home we decided to give Coy his Easter basket that night so that Colby could enjoy being with him when he opened it up. Coy got, some T-shirts, a church outfit, and a whole ton of toys, oh and a toooonnnnn of candy!
I wanted to take a picture of colby, but he um... wasnt camera ready..at
all.. So.. here is Coy and I with his basket.. he got a ton more.. but it was scattered and it was all I could do to keep Coy from screaming from me taking him from it all! Finally.. after a bath, bottle and bed Coy crashed hard! He slept all night!!

Sunday morning came and my dad and his wife had stuff for him, they gave him more clothes! I couldnt believe it... this kid made out like a bandit! We then made some blueberry pancakes with my sister and her family and my dad and his wife. They were soooo yummy!!!! My sister and her family said their goodbyes to my dad and his wife and we got ready for church! We only went to sacrament but it was so spiritual, RueThella and Craig Laub did great! After church we said our goodbyes to my dad and his wife and got ready for another picnic! This time.. with my mom, her husband and my cousins. We drove down to Gunlock where we would be having the picnic. I got so carsick, and the two kids crashed out. Finally we got there!.. The wind was blowing and it was about to rain.. ugh... so we put up a tarp and all hung out underneith it. We ate cu all sorts of goodies until dinner time. We had steak, and potatoes and all sorts of other stuff. It was so good.. but the rain kept getting harder and harder then BBBBOOOMMM and CCCCRRASSSHHH the thunder and lightening came.. so.. we packed up the trucks and headed home... unfortunetely we werent able to have an easter egg hunt at this picnic.. but I think my little man was all tuckered out anyway..

Coy had the best first Easter a baby could ask for!!!!!
