Easter 2011

JP was up early this morning to see if the Easter Bunny had come and what he left.  He was especially excited to see eggs hidden outside because the forecast called for a chance of snow and we told him that we didn't know if he would be able to hide them or not.  I love that he still believes.  He told our babysitter last night that he had to go right to sleep because the Easter Bunny should be coming.  He came through and brought all the kiddos some new pjs, a light spinner toy and some candy including a chocolate bunny.  The girls got some jewelry & sunglasses, Ryan got a train & sunglasses and JP got a mini Webkins Duck.

JP & I left early for church to help hide eggs for the church hunt.  When we returned it was time for our own hunt.  I think the weather has only been in the 40's all day, but it didn't slow down the kid's from finding the eggs.  Well actually only Ryan, who really got into it today, and JP searched for eggs.  The girls were happy just watching them run around and getting Daddy to give them jelly beans from inside the first eggs they found!

It has been such a nice and relaxing day.  While the trio napped, JP played on the computer with his new Webkin Duck he named Waddley, Joe read a book, and I...you guessed it...finally got caught up on the blog!!  Happy Easter!!

The Easter Bunny filled our baskets!

Each of the kiddos got these 3 cute chocolates to go with their bunny:

Thanks Dad:

No egg is too high for JP!

Cleaning out the eggs and making a bowl of jellybeans to share.  I told JP he is so lucky that the trio didn't care about the eggs filled with coins- he made out with $3.05!  Lucky kid!
