Easter Recap

Happy mid-week! Our Easter was good. We went to my grandmother's house for the first time in three years. You gotta love those family differences! It was a wonderful day and we enjoyed it.

Evan learned how to hunt for eggs very quickly. He wanted to open each one after he picked it up though. He figured out that most of the plastic ones had chocolate inside.

He's growing up so fast! He didn't want Mommy or Daddy's help toting his bucket.

After the egg hunt, things started to go a little wild. Evan ran for cover.

But the aliens convinced him to come back out

Confetti was flying everywhere,

Cole was beating up poor helpless eggs with a mallet,

and shoes were lost ... and found.

We were bordering on Redneck Easter at this point. I didn't even get a picture of the hard boiled egg carnage near the lone tree in front yard.

Are you wondering why you read this blog with my bad humor yet?

But alas, things returned to normal. Kaylin, my cousin's beautiful daughter, was ready with a smile

and luckily no police were needed.

I hope you all had a great Easter too! I'm ready for the next holiday. I have missed big family holidays but hopefully we (my family and me) can all push our differences aside or keep them at bay for a while and just enjoy each other. Love you all, enjoy your week.

Just as a disclaimer: the family difference thing has nothing to do with Mike's side of the family. Don't go looking at Katy and Heather's blogs funny thinking they were a part of this.
