Easter 2013

Easter happens to be one of my favorite holidays.  It is full of hope, love, joy warm weather and new beginnings.  We were scheduled to attend three egg hunts.  But the weather last weekend wasn't great so they got rescheduled to this past Saturday.  All of them at 10 or 10:30.  We went to church to hunt for eggs with our friends. 

Owynn was excited about the eggs when we first arrived.  He didn't really understand why we had to wait, but eventually he got distracted.  By the closet with the basketballs, inside the gym.  Distracting him from that was REALLY hard.  The children sang songs and a wonderful message was given by one of the organizers.  The kids got lined up (younger ones on the east side of the building and the older ones on the west side) and set free.  We were last to exit but it made no difference.  If we had been fist we still would have been last.  Owynn got excited about the eggs and started opening each one as he found them to look for chocolate!  He's my child, for sure!

Nana tried to give him a kiss goodbye.  He wasn't having it!

A good haul!

CHOCOLATE!

Open it!

In Owynn's basket there were a few goodies, which didn't interest him as much as this nugget!  Owynn watches Blue's Clues and LOVES to play along.  Now, he has his very own Handy Dandy Notebook!  He even had to find a pen that would fit in the spine.  It went to church the next day and every time Blue's comes on he pulls out his notebook when Joe does as well.  He also got a kite, some sidewalk chalk and a sand box.  

We hope everyone had a wonderful Easter and is well.  Our love to all!
