Happy Easter!

Not Actually on Easter, but fitting for this post.

The day after Elijah's birthday party was Easter Sunday. It's hard to believe that was less than a week ago, but it was. We had a really nice morning- Church and then Brunch at Bob & Bridgets followed by an easter egg hunt. Katie and Dad came which made it extra special.

I must say, we are raising a pretty good kid in Elijah (if we don't say so ourselves). This kid was in to the easter egg hunt and loved finding eggs, but when his basket was full he didn't try to over stuff or collect more. He just looked at it, and then up at me and said "I all done!"  He also didn't stop to open the eggs and eat all the candy inside like his cousins, he just went along on his merry way, collecting eggs.  NOWWWW, once he was done, he did find a nice cozy spot on my dad's leg to relax and access his spoils. I didn't really think anything of it, with dad watching over him and he was acting pretty darn good. It wasnt' until we got home that I decided to go through his basket and empty out all the eggs, ridding them of most of the candy that I found this little fact out...out of, lets say 25 eggs, there was 1, ONE ONE egg had candy in it! That little poop ate all the candy out of every egg in his basket, and you know who I blame? MY DAD!

Some supervision- ha!  Oh well, I did notice at one point a large pile of jelly beans which he doesn't like, so that gave me some peace of mind. You can image my shock though, to find 24 empty eggs....oy.

Lucas is still too small to get the whole easter egg hunt thing, so he just chilled in the swing - his favorite place to be, and observed the whole time.
(P.S. Sorry there is not really a picture of Elijah's face...it was a little hard to capture the moving target)

I must say, by the end of the weekend I was ready for a day off, but Monday morning came beckoning all too fast.
