Easter 2008

"Things I'd like to Remember about Easter This Year"

• We woke up to 2 kids stumbling out of their room with sleepy eyes only to spot the Easter baskets and run screaming towards them!
  
• Candy at 8:00 in the morning, while wearing Lighting McQueen glasses and throwing new baseballs.
  
• Easter Bunny leaving a yard full of eggs for the kids to find. S wasn't really big enough to enjoy this last year but boy did he understand it this year.
  
• Multiple Easter Egg hides and hunts. Parents hide and kids find followed by kids hiding and parents finding. L got upset with S because he only wanted to keep "finding" the eggs and L hid them for Mommy and Daddy.
  
• Miminum fuss lunch since we knew what was coming up later.
  
• 4 o'clock rolled around, 2 kids up for naps and we head to the Knight castle for Easter dinner and great company!
  
• We enjoyed the rest of our evening dining on pulled pork sandwiches, potato salad, baked beans and strawberry pie for dessert followed by Easter Egg hunts with all 4 little ones. It was so much fun this year. Last year the younger 2 weren't walking steadily yet, this year all 4 looking for eggs made it so much fun!!!

It was a great Easter. We spent the entire day as a family, not something we do very often.

We had all the makings for a great day and it worked out well; Good Friends, Good Food and lots of laughter!!
