Colored eggs, a 5K, chocolate bunnies and goggles.

We started Easter weekend on Friday night with our first meal on our new picnic table.  While the salmon and asparagus were on the grill we decorated and smashed dyed some Easter eggs, practiced hunting eggs and played a little ball.








Saturday morning we got out of the house early and my little team came to support me at my first 5K of 2011.  I have done a few races since becoming a mom and I still get a bit emotional at my own little red headed cheering squad!  After the race we headed to the local Botanical Gardens for an egg hunt.  We forgot the camera but the boys both had a great time.  They each got to hunt eggs and did quite well.  We then had a picnic, explored the garden, played frisbee and visited the choo choo before heading home for naps.  After naps we played outside until dark and ate another meal on our picnic table.













Sunday morning, a truly GLORIOUS day.  Matthew was the first one up and when I walked in the living room he was already halfway through his little chocolate bunny.  They both enjoyed their baskets of treats and a little breakfast before we headed to church to celebrate HIS RESURRECTION.  After an excellent service, a change of clothes and a thick coating of sunscreen back outside we went to enjoy the gorgeous day.  We trimmed some trees, weeded flowerbeds, relocated the playhouse, gave wheelbarrow rides, moved lots of mulch and enjoyed the latest Easter dinner ever!!










We are truly blessed by our lord EVERY SINGLE DAY.
