Easter

The boys had a lot of fun with the Easter Bunny's visit. Thoms left him a cup of milk and some carrots. He didn't eat them all so they kind of shriveled up overnight. The boys ate jellybeans for breakfast and before we knew it it was time to get ready for church. It was an extra quiet Easter since we stayed home.  Ken asked if I would make a Shepard's Pie rather than a ham dinner. We really missed being with family this year. We are going to have to plan something different next year!

After naptime the boys had an Easter Egg hunt in the backyard. Thomas cheated and was peaking out the window. Nathan would gather the eggs but Thomas was too quick. Thomas' basket overfilled and he was dropping eggs. Nathan would follow behind and pick them up without Thomas knowing. It was hillarious! Nathan was so mad when Thomas caught on and got all of Nathan's fallen eggs. (Note: See temper tantrum picture...the video we took was priceless.)

I was able to calm everyone down so that we could color some eggs. I tried to limit the mess in the kitchen so Nathan used BINGO markers to decorate them. He had to be super gentle or else they would crack. He did a good job but the whole process was not entertaining enough and he got bored with it. Thomas was ready to color the remaining eggs and seemed to have lots of fun.
