Owen and Brody's School Egg Hunt

This morning the boys had their Easter egg hunt at school.

Brody was very excited!
 

Can you spy Owen peaking over his classmate's head?
On your mark...get set...

GO!!!!!!

 

 

 

It was a successful hunt!

My Favorite Bunnies!

Trying out our very best Easter outfits!
 

 

 

 

 

FUMC Easter Egg Hunt

After church this morning we headed out for a super chilly Easter egg hunt

with our buddies the Hicks

The Easter bunny.  This Easter bunny was "not real" as Owen stated upon seeing her ponytail poking out the back of her open bunny head...It didn't matter to Henley, she was not getting near the bunny, real or not!

 

 

 

 

our haul

 

Of course a snow cone is perfect in this balmy 40 degree weather!

Universal Cont.

This few pics were on my cell phone and I needed to include them

Here is the luxury ride I drove to Universal Studios.  We went to get our rent cars and laughed we needed a bus to get us all to LA.  Well, lucky us, they had a 16 passenger van, and I got voted driver. I was totally willing to drive, this isn't really too far from my daily reality is it? While driving through LA, with the Hollywood side out the window, I had to laugh...if I every really were to picture myself cruising in LA, I probably picture a sleek convertable, not a white bus...

Are these guys cool or what?

IT'S SO FLUFFY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Universal Studios

Today, we headed to LA to Universal Studios...

Here's a glimp of our room...this is the "kids" bed and there was a queen bed for the "adults"...On our first night there, I pulled the trundle out from under the "kids" bed and Owen shrieked "that's where Vampires sleep", clearly comparing it to a coffin...Needless to say, I slept in the "coffin" and Henley slept in the "adult" bed...EVERY night! While my bed was a little short, I was too tired every night to fight with a sleepy two year old.  I'm in trouble if she's already winning!?!?!!!!

We hopped in our van and drove to LA to hit up Universal Studios

OH. MY. GOODNESS.
This was the first character we saw! Owen was beyond thrilled. Hands down one of the best things I've witnessed in Owen's life.  He was so beyond excited!

 

 

 

I never would dream they would get this close...no fear, I was wrong!

So COOL! It was fun to stand in line with the boys to hear them talking about Optimus Prime as we got closer and closer.  After the picture Optimus shook thier hands and gave high fives. TOO COOL!

Apparently, Optimus makes for a great drink too! After meeting a transformer and getting this awesome drink, would the ride measure up? OH YES! It was a 4D ride. So much fun!

Brody had to go back to meet Bumblebee.  He even posed like a tough guy!

Shark attack!

There were soooo many characters all over the park.  Henley wanted nothing to do with any of them, until we say Marilyn...I guess she thought she was a princess?

We hung out in Curios George's crazy ball room forever. It was two stories of all sorts of contraptions to fill and shoot balls. Great fun!

I just love this pic of Owen "on set" in London!
