We hope everybody had a Happy Easter today! Our day started out bright and early at 5:30AM, when Katie came into our room asking whether the Easter Bunny had visited. (What does she think this is...Christmas?) She was promptly sent back to bed; but, as she sheepishly admitted later, she actually went downstairs to investigate and scope out toy/egg hiding spots. She returned to our room at 6:45AM and was tortured with the "you must wait until everybody wakes up" mandate.
At around 7:30AM, the Great Hunt finally began! When Mike has a little more time this week, he is going to edit the video we took of Katie's and Michael's escapades in searching for their Easter eggs and gifts from the Easter bunny. It was quite entertaining for all involved. The kids made out like gangbusters, with baskets full of chocolate and jelly beans, new musical instruments, and sticker books. When all the excitement died down, Mike and the "bigs" finally got ready for Mass, to celebrate the real meaning of Easter...
After a DELICIOUS home-cooked Easter lunch (thanks, Grammy) and some well-deserved naps, we finally settled in for some new-toy play and Easter cake. All in all, we enjoyed some crazy pandemonium and many laughs and smiles. Thank you, Eastah Bunny....bock, bock!
