For my mom/Easter baskets and eggs


 For anyone who doesn't know there is a place in MS that paints custom designed Easter baskets and eggs. They are very special and capture a highlight of each kids' unique interest.  For example: Kailey really likes Minnie Mouse, so this year's egg had a bunny painted as Minnie on it.  Haiden has a collection of five eggs now and they all have captured some part of his life and interests as well.  This year it was bunny with a Wii.  My personal favorite is the Batman bunny he received last year. My mom is committed to getting each of her grandkids a unique basket and then eggs every year until age 12. It's such a great way to capture a moment or highlight of the year as they grow and a special thing to look forward to every year at Easter! 


Haiden's Basket. 




Haiden's 1st and 2nd Easters. 
He absolutely loved balls.


And then we went through the Toy Story phase, followed by the Batman year, and the Wii.
 (He still really loves all super heroes including Batman.)


Kailey's basket.




Kailey's 1st Easter is missing.  (We have it in the house somewhere, but she plays with them.) Her second one is really about the bows.  I love putting bows in her hair still, but it especially that first year of her life. So fun! And then this year is Minnie bunny. 

Logan's basket.




Logan's very first egg. =)


And then on the back of each egg is the child's name and date. 

Thank you mom for all the eggs and baskets! We love them!
