The Rest of Easter

Finally! I can finish blogging about Easter!

This year we did the Easter thing at Pam n Dave's and the kids loved it even though they could not go outside. Jacob was loving getting all of the eggs, even the ones that were a little easier to find for Ethan. all of the kids dug into their baskets, yes, even Jessica. There was good food and Deviled eggs, which we found that Jacob LOVES. We never did get the chance to hide our own eggs. hopefully next year we will have nicer weather and both kids can enjoy the festivities.

Easter Weekend

Jacob had fun coloring eggs while Jessica looked on, she will have her messy fun next year! His first reaction was awe as I lifted a colored egg out of the water, then he was all about getting in there and making his own eggs! of course he wanted all of them to be blue and didn't like that I was having them other colors.
The next morning Jacob got to see his basket. The first thing he said to me was in the morning, (he went into the kitchen before waking up mommy and daddy) and that was "mommy! you got my Easter basket wrong! you put baby toys in it and baby candy in it!" he quickly learned it was not baby candy or toys and he wasted no time digging right in.
Even Jessica enjoyed her basket, though she will not be able to enjoy any of what it has to offer till next year. Until then mommy and daddy will have to take care of all that pesky candy for her.
Then it was time to get ready for church in our new church clothes. this year we visited grandma and grandpa's church and the kids behaved very well. Jessica pulled the ribbon off of her head before we even made it to the car, but she looked cute anyway.

Jacob was being a bit ornery, and I had a hard time getting him to take a good picture. Perhaps it was all of the candy. Well, that is all that I have for tonight, I will finish our Easter weekend tomorrow, if I don't get called into work.
TTFN!
