Happy Easter

It has been a busy day around here. We were up bright and early to get ready for the 9:30 church service. The kids found their baskets and were thrilled. I think they ate candy for breakfast. I would ask Eric but i really don't want to know. Everyone looked very nice in their Easter outfits as we headed to the church. Never seems to matter how early we are up we always get there just as service starts and after putting the kids in their classes it makes Eric and me late. I should work on that. Anyway, the service was nice but i don't think that church is right for us so we will continue our search. We ate out for lunch. The kids love restaurants. We try not to eat out to much so that was a treat. After getting home and trying to take some pictures the kids broke out the bubbles. It is a beautiful day. Nap time consisted of watching "Bedtime Stories". I will make up for it by putting them in bed early. After the movie we dyed our eggs and colored on our chalk ones. Yes, we have 28 green and black "chalk board" eggs. I thought i would be fun. Okay, so i thought they were strange and cheesy but hey if that is all they had that is what we will use. I shouldn't shop the day before. They still made for good hunting. Eric and i hid all the eggs around the house and then let the kids loose. They are still not great hunters but are very competitive none the less. After an eventful trip around the house searching in every bush and corner, we counted all the eggs. .Ella collected the most but with each egg Jack found he assured her he would "be the winner". I pretty confident there are still two in our yard somewhere. It was a great day and now that the kids are all hyped up on sugar i am going to attempt to get them in the bath and to bed. They need the rest after this wonderful day. We are very blessed. Happy Easter!
