Major Easter Prep

Thank goodness for Grammy... While Mom and Dad slog around in an endless, sleepless stupor, Grammy is stepping up to the plate to make sure that the kids have their usual, super-fun Easter holiday. The kids and Grammy started off the day coloring Easter eggs (with Daddy's help, too!). We didn't know how things would go with Michael's assistance, but he was actually way more gentle with the eggs than he ever has been with Neve. In fact, by the time egg coloring was over, he managed to only smash two of the 18 eggs!!

Later, post-Michael's nap, the kids helped Grammy to decorate a bunny-shaped Easter cake. (Mike and Traci contend that it is shaped more like a dog bone, but that is another matter.) The kids had a ton of fun putting way too much frosting and jelly beans on the cake, but it should be a yummy Easter treat tomorrow.

Finally, now that the kids are down to bed, Mike and Traci are finally going to do their jobs and prep/hide the kids' Easter baskets and gifts. Katie loves looking for things, so she has been eager for this egg/gift hunt for awhile. We'll try to capture some of it on tape tomorrow. Until then, Happy Easter, everybody!
