Happy Easter

We woke up on Easter morning and it was snowing.  That was a new one, even for the unpredictable weather here.  Scott made cinnamon rolls the night before, and we were going over to my parents for breakfast before church.

I was getting ready when I heard a crash.  There were no tears, so I didn't think it was from the boys, I ran down the stairs and found Scott picking up the pan of cinnamon rolls that had just fallen on the floor.  Thankfully, the bottom of the pan landed on the ground, so the rolls just got tossed around, they never fell out of the pan. WHEW!

We got everyone wrangled and ready to go and were halfway to my parents when I realized that we had forgotten the fruit we had promised to bring.  I also forgot the battery for the camera - had the memory card, but no battery! We were on a roll this morning!

The boys were mesmerized by the large snowflakes we saw at several points!

Since it was snowy and wet outside, the Easter bunny hid eggs inside my parents house while we were at church.  That sneaky bunny!  Wen we were on the way home from church, we knew the bunny had been there because we saw a neighboring house doing an egg hunt outside.

The boys divided the eggs so everyone had the same number, then eagerly opened them to check out their loot!

The Easter bunny stuffed Lego minifigures in the eggs - they were a big hit!


After playing with the new Lego guys for a while, they were ready to try out the Super Hero Plates from their Easter basket.

I've seen Fashion plates before and always thought they looked fun, but I had never seen the superhero version before!

The boys loved choosing the head, body and legs for their superhero.  Then, they could color their masterpiece.

I think this one will be a hit - hopefully they'll enjoy creating all sorts of superheros!

We ended the day with a delicious dinner - ham, potatos, and deviled eggs, oh my! We had a great day celebrating, hope you had a wonderful Easter with your family and friends!
