After Ryan's party and everyone but the Friends & Okruhliks left, we let the kids play in the backyard. We got out the water table which we knew Ryan would love. The big kids still loved it too. I remember when we got this table.
2008 - Ava's 1st birthday (only 4 kids born then - Lexie not pictured)
Look at how small Ian, Sawyer & Ava were!
2009- Ava's 2nd birthday - Ava & Lexie & Sawyer
2012 - Ryan's 1st birthday - Ava & Emily dumping water on Ry's head and styling his hair. He loved it!
Then when Ryan went down for his afternoon nap, we busted out the hose and sprayed the kids some. Not sure why they love this but they do. They also watered the yard quite a bit in the process.
Darren decided that playing with the hose on the deck was not enough and convinced the kiddos to run in the yard and try not to get sprayed by the hose. This was of course very good entertainment for us adults.
Ian dashing by.
Ava's turn!
Emily's up (although i think she enjoyed getting sprayed the most...that girl loves to dump water buckets on her head!)
Finally after all the outdoor play time, Aunt Donna & Uncle Mike helped the big kids dye some Easter eggs. Ava handed out her aprons to Ian & Emily so their clothes would stay clean and we got to dyeing.
Ian looks so serious...concentration is key!
Emily did not have the patience to sit still and wait so I think she only dyed one egg but she was happy!
