Easter Celebrations

We hope everyone had a great Easter! We sure did a lot last week. Everything was fun...well, everything except for seeing Easter bunnies. But, besides that...all we had was fun.
Owen wasn't happy about sitting on the table. Liam wasn't happy that Owen was crying. Even bribery with a blue sucker didn't work. Oh well. Its a GREAT photo, isn't it?

Baby Liam's 1st Easter!
Last Sunday, we had a neighborhood hunt right during nap time! We didn't stay too long, but the boys did enjoy hunting eggs. Here they are waiting for the hunt for their age group to start.
Owen is serious about hunting ;-) He got 8 eggs and then called it quits.
Liam found the 1 egg that was right next to him and just played with it the whole time.
He would have come home with only one in his basket, but his big bro hooked him up with a 2nd egg ;-) Sure am glad I donated 2 dozen?!?
Owen stayed as far from the Easter Bunny as he could; but, Liam sat in his lap for a picture (reluctantly, it appears).
Owen, me, and Liam on Easter Sunday. Owen is saying "cheeeeeze." Can you hear him?

Owen.Gerard with his two sons. Owen just wanted to jump off of the rock over and over. I love how this picture turned out.
Gerard and Liam watching Owen run and be silly in the grass. One of these Quinlans is more humored than the other by our oldest son. Can you tell which?
Owen throwing a piece of mulch "to the sky."

The boy's baskets full of fun stuff that was not left by the Easter Bunny. No Sireee. The Easter Bunny did not come to our house...nope. Just ask Owen. The Easter Bunny is "at his home going night-night."

Owen opening Liam's gift. This system works rather well. Owen LOVES opening presents and Liam doesn't get interested in them one bit. Luckily, Owen recognizes what is his and what is Liam's and doesn't try to just take them all of himself.

Our Easter Table set for dinner. The centerpiece includes eggs dyed by Owen.

Time to hunt eggs!


Baby Brooke (Austin's little sister). She's a doll, isn't she?
Austin enjoying the stickers he found in one of his eggs!
Owen wanted his dad to open an egg for him. From about 2-3 feet back, he tossed it to Gerard. The egg landed right in Gerard's beer. Absolutely HILARIOUS!

Liam slept through the egg hunt. When he woke up, he searched through discarded eggs for M&Ms. Poor baby.

It was a great week and we really enjoyed sharing Easter with great friends. It was so much fun to watch the kiddos hunt eggs together. And, even more fun watching them try and talk their dad's into letting them have more and more candy. Ha!
