Meyer Easter '14

This was one of the nicest Easter's (weather-wise) that I can remember since I've been in St. Louis.

We started the morning with some awesome surprises from the Easter Bunny!

Johnny was stoked about his new Bocketball. 

And Maer-bear wanted to break out her new kite IMMEDIATELY.

(it took some major convincing that church should come first...) 

Then we discovered some eggs around the house and the hunt was on! 

This poor kid with his silly glasses and fedora hat... good thing he puts up with us! 

After my many failed attempts, this was the best picture I could get of the two of them that day.

Forget about a family shot - it's close to impossible to get this kid still for even 10 seconds,

so I'm afraid that won't be happening any time soon. 

However, there is one thing he does like... the TAMPOLEE! 

I'm not sure who likes it best actually... 

Between that and the bubbles, these kiddos were sufficiently entertained! 

I think the rest of the "kiddos" enjoyed themselves too.

Happy Easter 2014!

Easter Fun at Eckert's Farm

The kids and I went to Eckert's Farm this year on Good Friday to
meet the Easter Bunny and check out all of their awesome Easter activities.

Maeryn has officially conquered any fears she ever had of costumed characters,

She ran right up to Peter Rabbit and gave him a huge hug! Johnny boy... not so much.

There were lots of baby chics, ducks and bunnies for the kids to see and hold.

Maer did great, but we're still working on Johnny having more of a "gentle" touch...

He started to get the hang of it after a while.

And then, BAM. He started giving bunny smooches like a pro!

So sweet.  :-)

Ready for the Egg Hunt!

Go Time.

Both kiddos made a haul.

This could be the year that we will have zero pictures of the kids together with costumed

characters... Johnny wanted NOTHING to do with the Easter Bunny.

Such a fun day, Eckert's nailed the Easter festivities big time - we will definitely be back!

Happy Day!

Now that we have had some nice weather, we finally got our trampoline put up...

and we have a very excited girl on our hands!

WCDS Spring Concert!

Maeryn did an awesome job during her class' Spring Concert this year.

Each group sang a special song and her class did: Take Me Out to the Ballgame

in honor of the Cardinal's opening day.

Such a cute program!

After the show there was cookies and punch - probably Maeryn's favorite part...

Here's Maer-Bear with her buddy Peyton. 

And with her awesome teacher Jessie, and more friends Morgan and Peter.
