Easter 2013

As with most holidays, we celebrated Easter on several different days. We started off by going to Bonnie Mom and Grandpa's house to make an Easter Bunny house. Evan LOVED making the house, which is similar to a gingerbread house, except that it is made of chocolate cookies, instead of gingerbread. Preston could not help make the house this year, but he LOVED the chocolate rabbit cookie that Evan shared with him! YUMMY!

Evan also had a Easter program and party at school. I was so excited that I go to go to this party and celebrate with Evan and his friends. Evan did great during the program and was an excellent singer! He enjoyed the party too, which ended with an Easter egg hunt and seeing the Easter Bunny!

Next up on our list of fun Easter activities was dying Easter eggs! Evan has always enjoyed dying the eggs, but this year he was old enough to help and he had a ball! (The only part that was a bit sad was when some vinegar splashed into Evan's eye when he was dropping an egg into the dye cup. Thankfully, it only burned for a few seconds and once he felt better, Evan eagerly went back to dying the eggs!)

Easter Day was very different for us this year. We usually spend the day with my family, but Grammy, Granddaddy, and Daddy all went to the U of L game in Indianapolis. Since they were gone and we would not be eating together as a family, Aunt Heather and her family went to celebrate with Josh's family. That left me all alone with the boys for most of the day, which was sort of a bummer. Thankfully, the Easter service at church was great and really lifted my spirits. The boys and I did get to do a few things with Daddy including Easter morning fun at our house and an Easter egg hunt at church. We also had breakfast together, which was nice.
