Easter this year was wonderful. The Easter festivities started on Tuesday at Mother Day Out with Wyatt's class egg hunt and picnic. He really enjoys his class and all of his buddies, they were so excited.. the first egg hunt of the week... Wednesday at CBS Wyatt learned about what the real meaning of Easter is... he came home yelling, " Jesus is Alive!" I am sure it will all come together for him in the next couple of years. Thursday we died eggs... This is one of those things I do bc I feel like I have to as a mom. I would not want Wyatt or June to say 10 years from now, "Why did you never let me dye eggs?" This was fun for Wyatt but a disaster to clean up.. he started to lick the eggs with die all over them, then June got a hold of a green table on the floor and was foaming green at the mouth. After that ordeal, I did make the smart decision to use plastic eggs for the egg hunt. Friday we took it easy, Zach had his first Sockers game and we all went to support him. The team did really well and won so off to a good start.
Saturday, it was off to the second year of the egg hunt with the Johnson's and McNeel's. This is always chaotic and so much fun. I have about 200 pictures I need to download and post, bc the boys are so cute! June was scared to death of the bunny.. she screamed every time she came near.. which was a lot! Wyatt did find the winning prize egg and picked out a huge art set to take home. I was hoping he would go for the stuffed bunny.. bc the art set is not washable! Saturday night we had a date night and Skeet and Nini watched the kids while Zach and I enjoyed a meal without children! It is funny, bc it is so nice to get away and all have to talk about when we are away is the kids?!
Sunday morning we headed to Papa's for our egg hunt in his house... (the backyard was muddy)As always the grandparents spoiled the kids with candy and more candy. We had a great time at Papa's then to the Doss house for lunch. As you can see Nini always prepares a wonderful meal and has the perfect decorations to accompany it! Ann joined us and then we wrapped it up to two sugar filled children and much needed naps!
I love Easter and I am so grateful for the Sacrifice our Savior has made for us... and hope everyone takes a minute to remember the real meaning.
