Hello Monday! After getting called in and serving as a juror on a trial last week (a very interesting experience for another day!), I'm happy to finally have the time to share with you the rest of our Easter weekend a pretty adorable video at the end of the post! In case you missed them, Friday and Saturday adventures of our Easter weekend too.
The thing I missed most about traveling for Easter this year was attending church so I made a point to have a special Easter lesson and activity during our family night the week before. I filled 12 plastic eggs with a scripture and something symbolic inside to represent the piece of the Bible story about Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection. My favorite scripture we read was at the very end that said "
On Sunday morning Liam discovered that the Easter bunny found him all the way at Sita's house in Meridian and the egg hunt began!
It was so adorable watching him struggle to bend over in his suspenders to pick up each egg he found ;) haha ...
My second favorite part was watching him carry his basket with his whole arm! He didn't make it very far before he decided to just set the whole thing down and instead of bringing the basket with him to the eggs, he brought the eggs to the basket.
The Easter Bunny kept in mind that a two year old would be participating in this egg hunt and hid the eggs accordingly (a.k.a mostly scattered all over the grass except for a couple on this fence and one in a tree). And yes, the Easter Bunny got made fun of for it with, "Easiest egg hunt ever!" Liam on the other hand LOVED every minute of it which was such a fun change from last year when he found two suckers in the grass and cared less about the rest of the eggs. haha
Diligently returning one egg at a time back to his basket ...
The hidden egg in the tree took quite a bit of explanation. He also got distracted by a plane flying overhead several times. Two year old boy for ya! haha
Magic suckers growing in Sita's grass!
The suckers were definitely a hit and had to be opened immediately ...
After a good head start on his sugar coma from the egg hunt we figured we had nothing left to lose and gave him his Easter baskets full of MORE candy and toys!
These trucks were his favorite part of Sita's basket if you couldn't tell by the expression on his face ;) ...
Couldn't even put one down to read his new Easter book with Sita, that's pure love right there ...
We got him a plane kite and would you look at that, his favorite part of our basket were more cars!
These ears were MY favorite part and lucky for me, he didn't want to take them off all day! My bunny lining up each new car in a row ...
One thousand and one, one thousand and TWO! Mid candy bite ...
Best dad in the whole world!
Bubble HEAVEN ...
Gosh I love this little boy so much!!!
I can't imagine my life without this handsome husband of mine in it either!!!
18 weeks with my littlest love ...
We spent the rest of Easter Sunday playing rummikub on an itty bitty table on my mom's front lawn (we looked like we were a bunch of old people having a tea party haha), eating the traditional ham and twice baked potatoes for dinner, and sharing dessert at my dad's with cousins! It was a glorious day!
Because of Jesus Christ I get to be with them forever and there isn't any better gift than that ...
He is risen! Happy Easter from the four of us!!! XO
