K, I'm loving the camera on my new phone! Look how great our after church Easter pictures turned out! Ben and Kallie failed in their assignment of sending me just ONE picture of their Easter with Nini and Bebe. Xander and his little suspenders and bowtie kill me! And of course, hands in the pockets!
After the boys found the letter "C" in an Easter egg in their baskets, they were curious. My plan was to let them stew about it all through church, but dang it - I was too excited to wait!
This year I decided to try something I saw online. I made the boys easter baskets pretty light and let them "buy" what they wanted instead. I printed out words to represent each item - then printed a second label where I cut each letter out and put it in an easter egg. They had to go find the easter egg with one letter in it and run back inside and place the letter on what they wanted to buy. It didn't matter who placed the first, second, third, etc letter - the only letter that mattered was who placed the last letter that was left on the word.
The boys were pretty excited about this new egg hunt. I told the boys they couldn't grab things off the table, so of course Andrew grabs Zack's hand and makes him grab something. This kid is so funny!
Christopher tried really hard to hide the baskets really hard this year, but dang it, these boys are onto his tricks! Everything Nick pulled out of his basket he wanted me to take a picture of with him in it. His facial expressions just make me smile! I am regretting the recorder. He is always asking if we need music to do whatever we are doing and will follow us around playing this thing with all his heart and might. It's loud.
The Primary Easter activity is always my favorite. Christmas has too much pressure, Halloween you have to get all dressed up, and Easter you go in regular clothes and get candy. Who doesn't like looking for eggs with candy inside?!
