easter morning, the kids woke early with the anticipation of baskets. not only did they find new baskets overflowing with goodies, but they were each surprised with new bikes! i will forever remember the Easter morning i woke to find a brand new lavender scooter waiting to be ridden all over our cul-de-sac. so i really could relate to the kid's excitement. jack was speechless and dylan was eager to ride. her legs are just a touch short, but i'm sure by the end of the summer, she'll be zipping by, red hair in the breeze. later that evening, jack did inform me that:
mama, i'm so excited for my new bike.
after a full spread breakfast, we spruced ourselves up for an afternoon of Easter celebrations. at great grandma's house, we were greeted by family and good smelling food and so many soon-to-be spoiled grandkids! those adults, they just can't help themselves! (but obviously, we can't either - it's so much fun completely taking a child by surprise. i love their looks and reactions!)
the kids found 33 colored, hard boiled eggs, roughly 4-5 times. and with each new hunt, the egg count dwindled. someone should have informed that dylan to quit breaking the eggs! it's so fun to watch the kids scour all the different hiding places; high up in the blinds or a light fixture, some on bodies, tucked in shirt pockets or stuffed into a sock! such a great day.
