Hoppy Easter!

Thank goodness we were all better in time for Easter! Brock had some work to do to get ready for that Easter Bunny!! He did a great job coloring the eggs and really was super careful placing them in to the coloring bowls. (Hey, Aunt Bev... we may need to stock up next time we see you.... I think we're down to only three kits left!!) ;)

Video above of Brock doing an Egg-celent job coloring! Sidenote, what in the world.... how does the kid already say "No Momma, pink is for girls/you, not for me." The damage from preschool has already been done!! (Also, Brock learned the word "butt" too this past week...le sigh.....but I digress...)

Finished products with breakfast the next morning - I so missed that smile while he was sick!
Kade enjoyed the colored eggs too!

Brock needed his energy for the EASTER EGG HUNT! I asked Brock if he liked Easter Day on Sunday night and he responded, "Yes, Easter Egg Hunt Day." "No, Brock, today is Easter, did you have a good day?" "No Momma, Hunt, I liked Hunt Day". Oh, okay Brock.

A church down the street from our house was having a hunt and I figured proximity trumped quantity this year. It was a perfect ratio of children to eggs at the church and it worked out great. Uncle Brian and Aunt Nancy had just sent the boys matching bags and Brock was excited to test out the capacity!!

He did a great job! So different from last year when we had to beg him to pick up one! This year he was off! Still funny though - he would pass by three very obvious eggs laying in the grass to get to a particular colored egg (whereas the five year olds had this on point and scooping up all the eggs as fast as they possibly could!)

We went over to a friend's house Saturday night for another little egg hunt with her girls and dinner. Brock definitely has the hunt part down!

Finally, it was Easter Sunday! Brock was a little wary of his Easter Basket appearing next to his bed while he slept, but quickly got over it when he surveyed his bounty!

Brock has been on a Pez dispenser craze lately with daily affirmations that the Easter Bunny would be bringing him a new Pez dispenser. I don't know if he was as excited as he could have been with the BIG dispenser in his Easter basket since someone (Brent) bought him an entire case of various superhero dispensers when he was sick.... spoilage!!

The family got ready quick for early service at church, then returned home for pictures. (just in time to beat the rain!)

Easter Sunday was a wonderful day with the family. We spoke to lots of family on the phone and spent time together relaxing and preparing dinner. Happy Easter to all of you from the Easons!!
