Easter 2011

Some pictures from our Easter celebration this year:





I might or might not have stayed up until 1:30 in the morning the night before Easter to get these outfits finished.

Hudson wasn't excited about sitting on Shae's lap for these photos but once we let him decide where to sit, he was just fine...for about 10 seconds.




Dyeing Easter Eggs

Last week, I boiled a dozen eggs for each kid and let them go to town with crayons and pots of dye. This is the first year I've let Hudson join in and he had a blast.

...but, it wasn't long before we could see it would be better if he wore a paint shirt.



...although he didn't keep it on for long.

Photoediting


It's been a while since I played around with my PhotoShop actions to edit some photos. I don't know why, it's so much fun. Here are a couple I worked on this afternoon:

Daddy Daughter Night


Maira recently got to bring Jess to her playschool for a Dad's night. She got to show him around her class, play with him, make a craft, and of course, eat a snack. She was so excited, she was counting down the days beforehand and she had a really fun time.





Monster Faces

The other night, the kids were hamming it up for the camera, making their best monster faces and I thought the lighting was pretty interesting in these shots:



I love the colour of Hudson's eyes in this shot, the light seems to go right through them. Such cute little monsters they are...

It's been a while since I posted so I've got some catching up to do. Spring has finally arrived but I've got some cute winter pictures to post before I get to spring stuff.
