Easter Fun!

We had a great Easter weekend! It's so much fun when the weather starts to show signs of spring and the kids are able to run free again.

We were able to get outside on Saturday afternoon and do some much needed yard work. Claire decided at some point to go in and make supper all by herself without telling us. She came out to say supper was ready, which was a surprise to us. She had made an original recipe which included hard boiled eggs (Easter eggs) cut into small pieces, small pieces of sugar snap peas, lettuce, and sour cream all rolled into tortilla wraps. Not bad with a little ranch to dip it in!

Easter Sunday was a long, fun, sugar filled day. Breakfast at church followed by a great Easter Drama!! Lunch was at Shelly's uncle and aunt's house complete with lots of kids, playing, and egg hunting. The evening meal was at Mark's parents with another group of great people, food, and more egg hunting. By the time we got home, the kids were so wound up from lack of naps and extreme amounts of sugar and activities, that bedtime was anything but normal. Hope was still up at 10:30 not ready to settle down. However, this morning Claire said to me "thanks for such a fun Easter, Mom." Makes it all worth while!!
