We had a wonderful week of getting ready for Easter here. Peyton was so excited this year. He has been learning so much about the Easter Story at Preschool over the last couple of weeks and I loved hearing him tell me the "lesson" from the day at school. He came home each day with a plastic egg representing the story of the day. So we started the week with decorating our own eggs with the boys.
Then on Saturday we joined in on the 3rd Annual Ridgeview Neighbors Easter Egg Hunt. It sounds really BIG but it is really just the neighbors on all sides of us and across the street.
It is amazing to me how many kids there are in 6 homes (with 3 kids still missing)!
The kids had a blast running through the back of our yards trying to find all of the eggs and candy. There was so much candy out there that there is a good chance we will continue to find it all summer long.
Peyton made off with a TON of candy. It is now hidden away in a VERY safe spot in the house.
On Easter morning we woke up and the boys were thrilled to see that they had baskets waiting for them.
Then we headed to Red Wing for church and an afternoon at Grandpa Mike and Grandma Jeannie's house. The day was FABULOUS!
The cousins at chuch by the flowers. This is an annual shot. One day they will all look at the camera and all remain seated but until then this is the best it gets.
LOVE THIS PIC!
After church we headed to Grandma and Grandpa's for some wonderful food and an egg hunt. We spent the whole afternoon outside.
Love the tongue out... this is hard work.
For a 1 year old (that started his hunt about 5 minutes before the other kids) it was time to move on to other things.
The goods!
It was a hard day and time for a little snooze with Grandpa.
