Hippity, Hoppity...Easter had it's day!

Yesterday's activities were great!  This is the first year that we've stayed home for the holiday, and we had a nice, chill day (not in the literal since, it was like 85 degrees!).  Matt was on call, but he really only had to go in from about 3:30-6:30, so we pretty much spent the entire day together as a family.

We started off with a visit from the Easter Bunny:

Candy at 9am...always a hit!

We went on an hour-long walk through the neighborhood, kids in the wagon, dogs trotting along.  I was surprised at how warm it was at 10am.  We came back home and played for awhile, then it was nap time.  The boys went down, and I went to sit outside in the adirondack to read.  I fell asleep for about 30 mins and my arms, legs, and chest got pink (got my Vitamin D for the month!)

When the kids woke up (well, Jack was the only one who slept - I will never understand how a 2-year-old can sit in a dark room, in a crib, and talk and sing for 3 hours without sleeping!), Matt was still at the hospital, so they picked their Easter basket for the egg hunt and we played outside while we waited:


Matt got home and hid the eggs...It lasted all of 10 minutes, but the boys had a great time finding them:



Jack could hardly wait to sort his loot!

(And YES, he's wearing cowboy boots with his outfit...he insisted!)

We have a busy week ahead of us...dog grooming Tues, getting my hair groomed Wed am, then off to Raleigh Wed afternoon for the major event AKA Jack's 4th birthday party!!
