Easter Activities

The past week or so we have done a few Easter activities to get in the Easter spirit! Our neighborhood had an Easter egg hunt. We almost didn't go due to the weather...it had been raining/snowing during the day but by the evening time it had stopped but it was still cold enough to have to wear our winter coats and hats! Jake stayed home with Ava as she was getting over a cold so I braved the cold and took the boys. Sam totally got the hunt and when they yelled go he took right off. Jack on the other hand stood there and wanted me to pick up the candy and eggs for him.....silly boy!

After the hunt they had a soup and bread dinner and dessert. Someone was giving out stuffed rabbits so of course the boys wanted one. Sam got one and then of course his brother had to have one. Jack disappeared for a minute and returned with a bunny. We then left and on the way home I asked Jack where he got the rabbit and he begins to tell me that he took it out of someones bucket! So if anyone is missing a blue stuffed bunny....it's here. My sweet little Jack decided he needed one and that was the only one he could find.

We then had playgroup the other day and had a very special visitor come for the occasion. We colored Easter eggs, played egg and spoon race game, and egg toss and then the Easter Bunny came to visit with all the kids and brought each of them an Easter treat. We got our picture taken with the Easter Bunny and he even gave all of the children a hug. Jack was a little unsure of the Bunny but Sam loved him. Ava wanted nothing to do with the the Easter Bunny so I had to be in the picture too. Thanks for the awesome playgroup!
