Easter Sunday

Easter came way too fast this year....maybe since the weather doesn't feel like Spring time yet? Maybe also because Danny was gone all week (and weekend too) working in Umatilla. But we made the most of it and we had Weston's first annual egg dying extravaganza. First of all, I purchased a dye kit that said "5 colors included". Once we got it home and started the process we discovered that we had an extra color tab...how exciting. The excitement faded after Weston put each tab in their respective glasses. We had one blue, two oranges and three greens. I did try to manipulate one into red and another into a purple using some food coloring, but it wasn't so successful.

Weston still enjoyed tossing the eggs from glass to glass, and we only ended up with one that was too cracked up after all of his hard work.


On Sunday we were lucky enough to share the day with our niece Alexx, who made the two hour trek from school. We are also grateful for our good friends and neighbors who invited us over for lunch.

Madison and Waylon hid the eggs and Weston had a great time finding them.

However, his attention span for hunting eggs was fairly short lived. Didn't take long before he was on to the next adventure....looking for things to dig up in Steve's garden!

After we got home and Alexx headed back up north, the boys took great naps and I got the best news of the day....Danny was headed home and would be here in time for dinner!


Through all the ups and downs, in and outs, it's days like today that I realize that I am so blessed to have such a wonderful life!

So cute! I got out of dyeing eggs this year! Yea, me! This year was daddy's turn, though he did find some recruits to assist. It was the first time Cole got to do some, and he Loved it! Clayton even re-hid the eggs for Cole to find yesterday.
