Happy Easter!
Bryce searched for eggs at the playgroup Egg Hunt...
while Drew preferred sweeping...
and sliding.
We had a big Easter weekend! It started out on Friday, with a fun Egg Hunt with Bryce's playgroup. There were lots of his buddies and their siblings, and we all had fun. As you can see, Drew was more amused by other activities, but to each his own.
The boys model their new Easter outfits from the Bertelsens and show off their chocolate bunnies from Grammy & Papa. (Thanks, everybody!)
Of course, on Sunday morning the big news was that the Bunny made it to our house. Bryce is really into holidays now, so he was very excited. Drew is getting pretty savvy as well, he knew exactly which gifts were for him!
Two eager kiddos check out their Easter loot.
The Bunny brought Drew an Elmo toy...
and a cool crocodile piano.
Bryce found Megatron (Transformer) and some Mars Mission Legos in his basket.
After a quick breakfast and an egg hunt in the living room, we packed up and headed for the zoo. It's become a tradition for us to go on Easter morning, because the zoo staff gives special treats to the animals. It's a hoot to watch them race out and tear their way through papier mache eggs loaded with goodies, jello eggs, Rice Krispie treats, etc. The carnivores get frozen blocks of bloody water with meat and fish inside. Again, to each his own! We had a beautiful, sunny morning to enjoy the animals and our picnic.
Bryce, Drew, & I wait for the animals to get their treats.
Stu entertains Bryce while Drew snacks.
Some animals get Easter treats filled with nuts & popcorn...
while others get "bloodcicles." The cheetah seemed to like his.
After an afternoon nap, we headed over to Grandma and Grandpa's house for Easter dinner. The Bunny had also been to their house! Amazing! The boys found more eggs and had a great time playing outside with their grandparents. All in all, a wonderful day.
Drew & Grandma make some bubbles,
while Bryce & Grandpa fly a plane.
Drew is a big fan of the mini Big Wheel. (Mini Wheel?)
We hope the Bunny was good to you and yours, as well. We love and miss you all! Happy Spring!
