A great way to start the day - childhood anticipation of the excitment ahead. Emma and then therefore Madeline were so excited to see that the Easter bunny had been digging through their colored eggs.
So we were off to find what great things he had left. They didn't even want to wait for Jay to wake up. They found their little "nests" of goodies. They were so excited!
The mad rush was on to get out the door to church. We arrived right on time, but the 1000+ other people who decided that this was the one day they should come were a bit earlier then we were. We sat in the overflow area - a good pastor and goergous flowers.
Then on to Grandma Kim and Grandpa Don's for the rest of the day. We started with the highly anticipated egg hunt. I held my own this year. The kids (thankfully) had their own little hunt just for them. It protects them from the pushing, shoving, scratching and biting that has taken place in the past adult egg hunt. Watching them hunt for the eggs is just so, so sweet.
Then we came in to eat. Certain we all ate too much of yummy food, then on to the park for kite flying and play time. Then on to relax and watch a little golf.
Took out some more food, munched. Rounded out the evening by watching Marley and Me. A great movie. Lots of real life and things to remember. Made it home around 9:15. Past everyones bedtime.
A great day! Wish this weekend could have lasted another few days!
