I can't believe that this was last year, and here we are again at Easter a year later. Wow, it's amazing how time fast goes! We spent Easter in Lake Charles this year and went to the same Easter Egg Hunt, fun day that we did last year. This time, Gavin got to walk to the eggs and found a few. He realized by the second egg that he could open it and there was a surprise inside. This caused a small distraction for him and he wasn't too interested in hunting more eggs. I tried to get him to look for some more, but he was really concentrating on the candy inside egg #2. He was also busy watching all the other kids run around like crazy that he wasn't too sure what was happening. Now thinking about it, we could have practiced with him by hiding eggs around the house or something for him to go find them. He enjoyed getting the three eggs that were in his basket as well as enjoyed dumping them out and then putting them back in.
After the Easter Egg Hunt we took Gavin to the petting zoo. For some reason, he was not interested in these animals. He wanted Brooks to hold him while we walked around the cage and was adamant about not touching them.

We got to enjoy the afternoon with our cousins and managed to get this picture of the kids! Impressive, huh?!? Wish Audrey Cate could have joined us, but we will get plenty of pics with her later!
Now, I know you got to see my skills in the moon walk (that's it's name, not a jumper) but check out Gavin! You should know that Brooks put him in the moonwalk while the festivities were going on and there were like 50 other kids in it.... he did not like that. So, when it was all over and we were the only ones there, we put Gavin in it and he went to town. It took a few jumps for him to get use to it and then we played chase and he went to town on that moonwalk. He loved it! He laughed so hard, ran really fast, and would throw himself on the ground to purposefully roll over. Oh, he was precious! We are looking into getting our own personal moon walk to take with us to Saudi. Have you ever seen the "miniature" ones for backyards? Academy and Toys R Us have them. Some friends of ours have one and the kids LOVE playing in it and jumping around. I'm thinking it will provide lots of hours of entertainment outside!
We ate lunch sometime between all the fun and Gavin was entertaining us with his faces! I have NO idea where he gets them from! Haha. He is just soooo much fun!
I'll post pics from actual Easter day soon. Need to run! Have a blessed day!

We have a bounce house and LOVE it!! It's great for birthday parties, but also if you have friends over with kids or playdates.
I debated back and fourth for a while on which one and decided to go with the indoor/outdoor one so that I didn't have to use stakes to hold it in place. (Our first occasion was for my daughter's birthday party in December so we wanted to make sure weather wasn't a requirement).
It's not a bad idea to own one, although of course they are much smaller than the large ones - like too small for you to do flips in ;-)
