We had a fun easter weekend. On Saturday afternoon, we headed to Lee's house so Mason and Lee could play. It just so happens that Lee's grandparents were in town so we got to visit with them for a bit. It was a great visit and the kiddos played hard all afternoon.
Saturday night, Mason helped mommy put out the baskets for the Easter bunny to fill. We left them on the coffee table so the Easter bunny could easily find them. When Mason woke up Sunday morning, mommy pointed out the Easter bunny came and Mason went straight to his basket to check out his goodies! Autumn also checked out her basket with the help of daddy.
After baskets, we got ready and headed to church. We joined Robert's mom at Immanuel Lutheran for their family service. The pastor (Pastor Tom) uses an "aid" to tell the story of Easter to all the kiddos. His aid is a pelican named Peli, of course! Peli told the kids all about his Easter goodies which included chocolate covered fish eyeballs. He even brought some to share. Pastor Tom looks in the basket and says "These are M&M's!" Peli's response? "Yeah, Maui-Maui!" Ha! The rest of the service went nicely and even Autumn was in a good mood. Of course, daddy was feeding her a snack - goldfish!
After the service, we went back to Sherry's house for some yummy ham and fixings. There was plenty of food and we brought home lots of leftovers. Mason, Autumn and Grandma played outside and grandma decided to "hide eggs" and let Mason have an Easter egg hunt in her backyard. Mason starts picking up the eggs, opening them, and dropping them back on the ground saying "no candy." He already got all the candy out of them but he still wanted more!
We finally headed home when we spent the rest of the evening doing stuff around the house. Robert mowed the backyard and Mason had to help, as always. They both (Robert and Mason) had taken off their t-shirts and I so wanted to get a picture of that....maybe next time!
