Easter

 Here are a few pics from our Easter festivities.......  

There's an 8-egg limit at the Easter egg hunt in Blaine.  Henry is movin' on up, to the 4-6 year old age group this year.  He sprinted to the back of the baseball diamond and picked up his 8 eggs in about 15 seconds.  Lydia managed to snag 6 eggs herself, which was quite an accomplishment, considering how slow the little thing moves :)  

We colored our eggs with Kool-Aid this year - something different - I think I'd do it again next year.  I do love the trick of using a whisk for the little ones.  She still ended up crushing her eggs in the end, but I think it prolongs the crushing for a little while, at least until after they can color them.  Those crushed ones just got used for egg salad immediately! 

We headed home to Jamestown for Easter weekend.  Of course it was freezing cold and windy, shocking!  We took Henry down to where the Bluejays play football, good ol' Ernie Gates Field.  The place was all closed up, but we managed to find one gate unlocked to sneak in so the boys could play!

Henry dyed Grandma's easter eggs, as well, while Lydia supervised with her snack.  Poor guy got sick on Friday night, didn't really eat much the rest of the weekend, took some good naps, and slept hard :(

We went to Jamestown's Easter egg hunt - no egg limits at this one.  Henry - 25, Lydia - 0.  Luckily she had a nice big brother share with her :)

He wanted his picture with the bunny SO badly this year, love it!  Lydia wouldn't go near him, not a surprise to me!
