Happy Easter!

We started our day out with mass at St. Ambrose. After mass we headed to Berra Park for the egg hunt. We were a little early, but that's okay, Max and Will enjoyed hanging out at the park. As it got closer to 11am Max took his place at the tape for the younger kid egg hunt area. He was so excited.

They fired the gun and it began. My plan was to send Max on his own to pick up eggs, but all these parents started pushing. There are CRAZY moms out there!!! There were mothers picking up eggs at a crazy competitive rate and putting then in their kids' baskets. One lady had gotten like 20 eggs before Max had even reached one. I think we need to find a new hunt to attend next year. Nostalgia aside - it was not fun and there were way to many crazy people.

The second egg hunt of the day was MUCH more enjoyable - better company,more beautiful setting. The Easter Bunny visited Aunt Carm and Uncle Mike's yard as we ate. Max had so much fun filling his basket in the back yard. Once his basket was full he was more than happy to help Jacob fill his. It was adorable.



Will had a great time as well. He didn't care too much about the eggs, but he loved chasing the tennis ball around the grass. I love his face in this picture - he looks like his is daring anyone to try to take his ball away.

All in all, another great holiday. I do have to admit that I'm exhausted and I'm so glad that Brian will be back tonight.
