Easter weekend

Easter this year was very relaxed for my family. We celebrated on 2 separate days and were able to spend quality time with both families.   I asked for all weekend off and got it so there was no worring about rushing around.

Saturday we went to the in laws for an egg hunt and dinner.  Jake did not grasp the concept of "finding the eggs", he just ran around and had fun.  His cousins had no problem with their egg hunt and found all the eggs in a matter of minutes.

After the egg hunt the kids played until dinner.  We had pork tenderloin, asparagus, pineapple, cheesy potatoes, rolls and raspberry pretzel salad.

After dinner we watched the kids play and talked.  I was sad to see Jake playing by himself.  I expected him to interact with his cousins more, but instead played in another room by himself.

We left quite late and both kids were in melt down mode.  

Sunday we went to my parents for the afternoon. We celebrated Easter and my dads birthday since he will be on vacation on his actual birthday.  We had a busy afternoon but it felt very relaxed.  Jake had another egg hunt and failed that one too.  It was funny to see him run around like a crazy boy.

After the egg hunt we ate dinner.  We had ham, cheesy potatoes, green bean casserole, and rolls.  We had cake and then dad opened his cards and presents.

We then spent the rest of the night outside since the weather was beautiful.  We took a walk around my parents lot, blew bubbles, drew with chalk, and Jake got a haircut.

We had a great Easter.  I'm very thankful that we were able to spend time with both families and have a relaxed holiday.
