Happy Easter!!!


Easter morning and finding the basket.

We had many fun activities going on for Easter. We weren't able to go to our church Easter egg hunt because Braxton was sick; however, this weekend we were feeling better and got to go to TWO egg hunt's. The first was a community fest. We got to see baby goats, baby sheep, a "teenager" cow, a donkey, a real life white rabbit, and some ducklings. We also got to color a picture and Braxton got to pick up five eggs. Within those five eggs were candy and three coupons for karate...needless to say we aren't really into karate so we won't be using them. I thought it was funny that when the egg hunt went into action they played the song "I want candy." How very appropriate! The second egg hunt was a little more exciting. Patrick was working the egg hunt at Lavell Edwards Stadium and so we went along. There was candy, candy, and did I mention candy?!! Cosmo and the Easter Bunny were both there to add to the fun. Braxton picked up enough candy (and a foam finger) on the sidelines that we didn't even have to let him loose on the field. Braxton didn't take long to figure out how to open the eggs to get the candy inside them; I turned around once to find him opening yet another egg and SHOVING all of the jelly beans that were in the egg into his little mouth before I could say no. We had a blast but sorely missed nap time later in the day!

On Easter morning we woke up to find that the Easter Bunny had indeed visited us with stamps, rubber animals, stickers, etc. and of course candy. We had a nice service at church and enjoyed a yummy ham for dinner! We hope you all had a wonderful celebration of our Savior and that you are all doing fabulous!
