Anna's birthday and Easter...

So I'm super late in posting all of these photos, but that seems to be my life lately...and I'm ok with it. :) :) We celebrated Easter with birthday fun as Anna's 3rd birthday was on Easter this year. The kids had a blast finding the eggs outside (hiding eggs in Tucson is no easy feat, but we had fun :) ) and finding their Easter baskets I had hidden. We had dyed eggs the day before and waited until John was home Sunday to make dinosaur eggs out of them. John made Anna a bunny cake (he is SO good at the cake thing and since I'm not much of a cake fan, I don't mind at all giving him that task :) ) and we had our neighbors, Kara and her son Owen (Kara's husband Grant was at work---he is in residency with John), over for dinner. We sang "Happy Birthday" and Anna acted shy yet loved the attention. We had had a family party in Denver earlier that week and opened presents, so it was a pretty simple party with dinner and cake and ice cream. For birthdays, I ask the kids what they would like for dinner and Anna asked for homemade pizza. That was probably the simplest Easter dinner ever---I can't complain :) All in all it was a great day and we had some good family fun! Here are some pictures from our adventures.

In all the party-ness, I forgot to take a picture with candles and all. Oops. This will have to do :)

Our dinosaur Easter eggs!

Such cute kids

Big smiles for the camera!!

I just can't get over how cute Vera's smile is in this pic :) I think it's one of the few non-posed smiles we have of her :) Well, all of their smiles just make me smile...
