Easter with the Hechts

We celebrated Easter with my side of the family on Saturday, the 11th, so that the Murphy-Hecht family could join us. My cousin Dan and his wife Brooke had twin daughters in August and this was their first time visiting in Eugene since they were born. My brother also drove down from Seattle for a surprise visit, so we had the whole family together! We filled up my parent's house, but thankfully the weather was nice enough to have an easter egg hunt outside. We all enjoyed getting to know Summer and Kara--it's so much fun having more girl cousins around!

We ate a delicious dinner together and then it was time for Easter baskets and an egg hunt!

The Henry Family~soon to be a family of 4!
My mom came up with the idea of having each kid look for a certain color of plastic eggs, and they were hidden with their ages in mind. (: It was a great idea! Even Griffin and Finn understood and had fun searching for their color.
Griffin found lots of yellow eggs! Somehow his little monkey ended up in his bag, too. (: It goes everywhere with him.
Ronan's color was green!
