We were a little unorthodox this year. We wrote to the Easter Bunny and asked him to come a day early. You see, we have one Sunday a month in which everyone eight and older fasts (i.e. doesn't eat two consecutive meals) and gives the money we would have spent on food to the poor and needy. It just happened to fall on Easter Sunday this year, so we decided to enjoy our Easter candy a day early. It was also nice to have more time to relax and not have to hurry and get dressed for morning church.
This was Brennan's first year to help read the clues to find the baskets.
I really liked doing our baskets on Saturday. It helped to spread out the fun and candy a little bit.
Chloe only got a couple pieces of candy, but it took her forever to eat them.
Her first Peep!
The Easter Bunny found that all the chocolate bunnies were smaller and more expensive this year. So the boys got Symphony bars instead. See what I mean about being unorthodox? Everyone liked them way better anyway.
Spencer got a book about how to read and write Kanji. He learned a little bit about it in history this year, and he loves it. He also got a brush pen so he could make thick/thin lines.
Thank goodness for boiled eggs - at least we got a little bit of protein in them.
Chloe decided she likes having candy for breakfast!

A friend of mine has permanently moved baskets to Saturday. Love the pictures of Chloe eating candy.
