We have had a busy Sunday.
We Jack woke up at 6:40.
We tried to convince him that Easter was tomorrow, but he already saw the eggs… so we got up.
He tried to find all of the eggs before he found his basket.
That didn’t work so well because he kept dropping them:
I just learned last night that not everyone’s Easter Bunny hides baskets and eggs.
Ours does.
Except this year, the boy Easter Bunny hid one basket in the oven.
And turned the light on.
Do you know what happens when you leave the oven light on all night long?
The oven gets very warm.
And chocolate melts.
I guess this was the boy Easter Bunny’s first and last year hiding baskets.
The boys found lots of eggs:
This was the last one standing… can you see it?
These eggs are obviously made for us desert dwellers:
They are grass, dirt, and concrete colored!
They are the best. eggs. ever.
We officially “opened” the pool – which I should mention has a different meaning than it did when I was growing up in New York. Here in Arizona, we don’t really “close” our pool. We just decided that today was the day we would start swimming in it.
Still a little chilly, though… I think the water temperature was 68 or so.
Jack took a quick dip and decided to eat some fruit and watch Michael:
The best part of the day (by far) was after dinner.
We went outside and played with the boy’s new toys.
(I saw these and fell in love with the box):
I love the stick figures!
Michael tried it first:
It was a little hard, though.
His legs aren’t quite long enough.
Dad had to try it out next:
Then we had an idea…
and that worked well, but we thought maybe we could get them to go further.
and over the house.
Then we made a contest party out of it:
and all the neighbor’s kids came out to try:
This one obviously went pretty far… look at their faces!
The catapult?
It’s definitely coming out at the next party.
