Easter Weekend

We celebrated Cooper's 4th Birthday on Saturday! We went to the Fun Park and let the kids play on the soft play. We at pizza , cupcakes, and opened presents. The kids had a great time and it was fun to watch them play with each other. Cooper received some great gifts and we want to thank Ty, Reese, and Jaxson for coming. Jaden and Addey were out of town, but Cooper got a neat bubble set from them.Cooper, we are so lucky and blessed to have you as our son. You have made the past four years the best years of our lives. We have been blessed with your great smile, your fun personality and your loving attitude towards us. You are growing up too quickly and sometimes we wish you were a baby all over again. Thanks for making us the proudest parents. We are so proud of you and the person that you are becoming. Thank you for being such a good example to your mom and dad. We love you!


Part 2

Lee's Marketplace put on a easter egg hunt for the kids in the community. Cooper had fun seeing the Easter bunny and going around the store with dad while mom shopped for food.


On Saturday afternoon, we had a Douglas family Easter egg hunt. The kids had a great time looking for the eggs. Each kid could pick up 10 eggs. When Cooper finished, he said, "Did I win?" He only opened two of his eggs. It's nice because he didn't eat much of the candy.
Next, the kids got to decorate nests. Uncle Bruce and Aunt Tara made little birds nests' out of shredded wheat. The kids got to fill their nest with eggs and a little peep to go on top. That was a fun activity. Thank you Bruce and Tara for organizing it. Marilyn made a great ham and dutch oven potato dinner that night for everyone. It was so good and we had a nice time with the family. We missed those who were not able to be there.

Later that evening, we had round two of Cooper's Birthday party. We got him a cake and he was able to blow out his four candles. It was fun to have most of his cousins around for that. Thank you all who made that a special day for Cooper.
