It was a long, fun, and sometimes frustrating Easter weekend. Of course, I had to work Thursday and Friday...Saturday I got up at 10:15 to take the kids to an Easter Egg Hunt. Kyle only has 1 more year left after this one..he'll be too old after that. So, we went...for the first time in a long time the weather was pretty nice...it was overcast, but not cold and not windy. I sent the boys to wait with their age groups, and went with Talia to her age group. At first she was really excited....
However, as we continued to wait, she decided that she did not want to be told "no, we have to wait until it's time". She threw an impressive tantrum (for her, the tantrum thing is relatively new).
Finally it was time...and the tears magically dried up! All the kids got a bunch of stuff, and so everyone was happy.
We dyed eggs Saturday night...which was an experience, because both Cole and I were grumpy. Me, because I was tired, and Cole because he had been dealing with Kyle's county report all weekend (more on that tomorrow). Talia dyed her hand and her shirt, and broke 2 eggs, before it was done...And there are no pics of me, because I was NOT in a picture mood.....
Sunday morning we woke the kids especially early to hunt for eggs...it was so fast, I hardly had time to take pics. They all loved their Easter gifts....
After church, we headed over to my In-laws for dinner....
Then we headed over to my parents...my dad did an egg hunt for the kids, but by the time I got out there with Talia, the other kids were all done!
Last night we were exhausted...but it really was a good day.
