Easter 2010

Today was a lovely day.

We had Easter brunch at a restaurant, and the boys were on their best behavior. We didn't even have to threaten them. Of course, when we arrived, Grammy had already placed stocked Easter baskets on their chairs. Plus, there were so many of us that the restaurant sat us at two tables, which actually turned out to be a bonus, because the kids could walk from one table to the other which gave them a chance to wiggle, and sit by someone new. Later we had an easter egg hunt at Aunt Jenny's house, and the kids were fantastic. We told them they could each find 10 eggs - and they did! No one pushed or shoved or bragged about finishing first. They helped each other find the eggs, the older kids entertained Kai, and they caught a ladybug - bonus! Here are my favorite pictures of the day.

The boys opened small baskets at home. Play-doh for Jett and a spinning top for Kai. Plus a bunch of plastic eggs with one m&m inside each egg. Jett was thrilled, completely thrilled finding one single m&m in each egg.



The Easter-egg hunt was a full-contact sport. Thanks, Uncle Will!


Finding the treasures...


...and finding the treasures with style.


It's just not easter if you're not digging a jellybean out of a child's mouth.


Happy Easter, and Happy Spring!
