A hunting we will go ...

Both the boys had egg hunts at their preschools the week before Easter.  And it was COLD!  Like David-had-on-his-winter-jacket-cold and Luke's-egg-hunt-was-moved-inside-because-it-was-snowing-cold.

 

Here are some pictures from David's hunt.

Here are pictures from Luke's Easter party and indoor egg hunt.

 

Time to eat.  These kids eat at 3pm like they haven't had 2 breakfasts and lunch already.  (Luke eats breakfast #1 at home, then has breakfast #2 around 8:30 at school.)

Fun Easter sensory bin.  Just glad all that grass isn't at my house!

 

The kids made bunny baskets out of milk cartons.

 

Time to hunt eggs.  Luke only picked up about 3-4 eggs because he kept stopping to eat the candy.

Breakfast with the Easter Bunny

What better way to spend a nice, chilly spring Saturday morning?  Eating breakfast with the Easter Bunny and then hunting eggs outside.  The kids love this annual event at our country club.

 

{David thinks the real Easter Bunny lives there.}

 

Breakfast was yummy as always.

 

 

Luke can feed himself with a fork now.  Thank you daycare!

 

David practicing his ninja moves.

 

Yay!  The bunny finally arrived.

Group hug!

 

My sweet Claire!

 

Time to hunt eggs.

Luke believes in opening the egg and eating the candy before moving on to the next egg.

 

Digging for more candy!

 

 

There's that silly bunny again.

 

 

David found a bunch of eggs.  I had to make him stop and start putting eggs in Luke's basket.

Happy Easter!

 

Lyrics from one of my favorite songs from worship today:

 

There is a love that came for us

Humbled to a sinner's cross

You broke my shame and sinfulness

You rose again victorious

 

Faithfulness none can deny

Through the storm and through the fire

There is truth that sets me free

 Jesus Christ who lives in me

 

You are stronger, You are stronger

Sin is broken, You have saved me

Is is written, Christ is risen

Jesus You are Lord of all

 

No beginning and no end

You're my hope and my defense

You came to seek and save the lost

You paid it all upon the cross

 

You are stronger, you are stronger

Sin is broken, you have saved me

Is is written, Christ is risen

Jesus you are Lord of all.

 

Stronger by Hillsong

New school and a Valentine's Day party

I am just crazy about Luke's new preschool.  Right now, he is only there MWF, but in the fall he will be there everyday!

 

We took him to his Valentine's Day party last Thursday (even though he is not normally there that day).  This is first time I've gotten to take pictures because normally we just drop him and run (to avoid any crying ... and he still cries sometimes).  And I still don't know any of the kids in his class, but I did get to meet a few parents at the party.

 

I was worried about my other 2 kids being with me (I couldn't find anyone else to watch them ... believe me, I tried), but they were fine.  Except for David was LESS THAN THRILLED to be at Luke's party!

 

 

Finally!  A picture of Luke with his teachers.  Ms. Michelle ...

 

and Ms. Wendy.

 

 

We are just crazy about these ladies!  And Luke was crazy about the heart cookies.  I'll bet he ate 4 of them during the 30 minutes we were there!
