Happy Easter everyone! We had a lovely day. Here are the boys, all cleaned up and ready for church.
We started the day with my family's tradition of running around the house reading clues to find the Easter baskets, and this year Tyler was able to help read them.
They told me they
tried to sleep in 'till 7:00, but they were just too excited. I think they woke us up around 6:45.
We threw all caution to the wind and let Brennan eat everything this year - even chocolate. However he did get a mild rash on his cheek, so perhaps we went a little overboard. At least we didn't have any nuts or peanut butter.
Once it warmed up we had an Easter egg hunt, and Dave had the best idea this year. We divided our yard into 4 sections - one for each of the kids. That way everyone got the same number and they were hidden according to their ability. Brennan's were just tossed around the grass, and he figured out right away what to do. He calls the jelly beans "beans!"
Dallin's eggs were a little harder to find, but he found most of them without help. Yes, he is dressed as Batman. I think it is the dorkiest costume, with the big diaper-looking part and such. But he wears it all the time. Luckily he's growing out of it.
Tyler's eggs were all on the swingset. He loves an excuse to climb.
Spencer's were the hardest to find. In fact he was the last one to find them all. Dave has a lot of fun making it tricky.
After church we drove down to my parents' house for a yummy ham dinner. I was looking forward to it all week. I made 4 cream pies for dessert - coconut cream, banana cream, chocolate pistachio and chocolate with chocolate crust. Somehow that has become our traditional Easter dessert. By the way, just 4 more days 'till my b-day! I just love this time of year.
