Easter






Easter weekend was so much fun. We woke up Saturday morning and went to Nolan Park. The boys were so excited to go hunt Easter Eggs. Before "the hunt" started Austin told us he was going to get all the eggs. Alex then told us he wanted the blue eggs (his favorite color). So the firetruck horn blared and they were off. Austin took off like a rocket he picked up eggs along the way and was soon lost in the chaos. Alex went by several eggs making a bee line for a blue egg. After he got a blue egg he just kept looking around. Parents were not allowed on the field so Travis was yelling from the sidelines for him to get more eggs. He went to pick up another one and put it in his basket then he stopped and looked at. It was purple!! He wasn't going to have any part of that so he put it back on the ground. Travis and I just laughed. I love that little boy!!! When all the eggs were gone the boys came back and showed us what they had got. Austin, being a great big brother and cousin, shared his eggs with his cousins and brother who didn't get a lot of eggs. Grandma and Grandpa Gray had an Easter Egg hunt and BBQ. And after that we started a fire and roasted marshmallows, YUM! We went home and colored Easter Eggs for the Easter Bunny to hide Sunday morning. They boys loved this, we even tried getting fancy (for us) and did two and three colors on the eggs. They decorated with stickers and crayons and then left them on the table for the Easter Bunny. Sunday morning we had the boys' third Easter Egg Hunt. They had fun finding the eggs they had decorated and put their names on. We ended up with way too much candy, but it was a lot of fun.
