Easter Egg Hunt

My friend Amanda and her family hold an Easter egg hunt every year. Last year we were out of town, so this would be the first egg hunt that the kids had participated in. They both did great. See the pictures below.

Phillip spies some yellow eggs...

He loves to mug and smile for the camera now, especially with his new Easter basket.

Andrew spies a purple egg...

Andrew is very intent on finding more.
Just check out all those eggs!!
All Andrew wanted to do was crack them open and eat the candy out (wrapper and all)!
A nice family photo after lunch, thanks Aunt Terah for taking it for us (and look, both boys are smiling and looking at the camera, it's a true miracle!)Hope you and your family have a fun and happy Easter!!
See ya later alligator...

The Characters

Hi. Welcome to our blog. We appreciate you stopping by and taking a look around. Let me introduce you to the characters in our little drama.

Chris - My sweet, wonderful husband of almost 10 years. He's an engineer who works for the Navy. He enjoys rough-housing with the boys, playing golf, and surfing the net.

Phillip - My firstborn son, he's now 3 1/2. He's currently into Spider-Man, Mickey Mouse, and all things Cars. He loves hitting golf balls with his Daddy and playing baseball.

Andrew - My second-born, he just turned 2. He talks up storm, only about half of which we actually understand, and is currently figuring out how to jump. He's into eating and everything his big brother is.

Fudge - Our 7 year old, male chocolate lab.

Brownie - She's Fudge's litter mate, also a chocolate lab.

All three of the men in my family could definitely be described as instigators. But, that's only part of the story of the title of this blog. You see, Chris & I are alumni of the University of Florida. Their mascot (in case you don't know...) is the Gator. So, you see, we tried to do a little play on words there. I do want to give credit where credit is due and thank my friend Susan for thinking up this very appropriate title. Believe me, I've been agonizing over the title of this thing for weeks now. Hope you can appreciate our little pun.

That's it for our first post. We hope to see you back here soon. See ya later alligator...
