Easter Wrap-up

We had a really nice Easter weekend.  The kids had no school on Friday, and because it was earth day I decided to take them to see the movie African Cats. If you see it the first week out, and Disney Nature will make a donation to protect the Savanna.  We really enjoyed it.  It helped remind me of what's really important.  I also feel we are so blessed to have such an amazing beautiful earth, and we should pass a love of animals and taking care of our planet onto our kids.

Saturday Griffin had his final soccer game of the spring season.  Right after we had a pizza party at the park.  The boys all got their tropheys.  Not sure how it will work next year.  They will most likley split our team up.  It's sad, these boys have played together for the last two years.




Saturday night the kids dyed easter eggs.



Sunday morning they discovered their easter baskets.  The easter buuny left a note saying if they found all their eggs they could turn them into Mom & Dad for a special prize (bubble guns).


Later in the afternoon we headed over to Uncle Johnathon's house (Grandma Shelley's brother) ,where the kids were looking forward to doing an egg hunt in his big backyard.  They found lots of really cute eggs.

After that eveyone came back to our house to enjoy a yummy easter dinner.  The kids got  an easter gift from Aunt Tracye, a bunch a really cool retro toys.  It was a nice afternoon together.
