So, we had a pretty busy weekend over here. Yesterday was John's 30th Birthday, and we spent it together as a family of 4 and had a good day. We didn't do any crazy celebrating or have a party or anything, but John said he just wanted a day with the family.
In the morning, Emma and I braved the breezy, cloudy, 37 degree day and did and Easter Egg Hunt in town. There were a ton of kids there, so we only got 3 eggs, but Emma had fun and we got a picture with the Easter Bunny. In the afternoon, we all went to the Kirby Science Center and let the kids play and burn off energy. Then, it ended up snowing and getting kinda yucky out, so we headed home for the day.
It ended up snowing about 5 inches, which wasn't really something we wanted at the end of March. The kids went to bed pretty early from all the activity, so John and I finished the night with some wine and Game of Thrones. All in all, a pretty good birthday celebration.
This morning started with some Easter Basket celebration. Both kids really enjoyed digging into their baskets and getting some new toys. Most of what the "Easter Bunny" got them was summer and outdoor toys, so there wasn't much they could actually play with today, but they didn't seem to mind.
We went to church this morning, and it was a battle. Elliott was tired, and restless, and crabby, and church was an hour and a half, so it was not the most fun service ever. But we survived, and I always enjoy Easter Sunday. Right now everyone is napping, and then we are going to head out to Jim and Barbs to celebrate Easter with John's side. The sun is shining, and trying to melt the 5 inches of snow we are currently buried in. I look forward to some Easter Celebrating in a couple hours!
Happy Easter Everyone! He is risen, He is Risen Indeed! Alleluia!!!!
