Happy Easter

We had a nice Easter with family yesterday, although it felt very weird not going to church. Julian has had a fever for the last three days, so we didn't think it was fair to take him to Sunday School and expose all the other kids to whatever was bugging him.

As soon as J woke up and came out into the living room, he spotted his Easter basket. He had fun picking through it all, but his favorite by far was the Easter balloon I picked up on a whim at the grocery store that morning.

Although he did think the harmonica was pretty hilarious.

Then after breakfast (a carrot muffin in honor of the Bunny Himself), we had an egg hunt. I practiced with Julian the day before so he would know there were treats in those little plastic eggs (and would therefore be worth hunting for) and he had a great time! He found them all and would gobble up the treat inside of each one before looking for another.




After nap, it was egg coloring time. I thought maybe watercoloring them would be less of a mess than letting him handle cups of dye. He liked doing it for about 60 seconds and then was so over it.

All done.

I said, ALL DONE!

This picture pretty much sums it up.

Daddy thought it would be cool if we painted a Spartan S on for the big game.

Julian however, did not.

We ended up with something more like a 9.

But some pretty eggs as well!

And this momentous day brought Julian his first taste of chocolate. It's safe to say he liked it.

And last but not least: The Obligatory Bunny Picture
