Easter Weekend

Johnny was out of town Thursday and Friday night visiting friends in the valley. The kids and I went to see the Easter Bunny at Walgreens on Saturday morning . Eli was so excited. I wasn't sure if there would be a line or not, so we went a few minutes early and did a little shopping while we waited. He was walking around the store calling out for him. When he finally came out, he started jumping up and down and immediately held his hand and walked with him over to the area they had set up for pictures. Then he turned to me and said, "Mommy, I know that's not the real Easter Bunny, it's a man in a costume. I can see his hair." The face part had a zipper in the back of his head and was way too small for the guy. It did not damper his enthusiasm though.

On Sunday morning, the kids found what the Easter Bunny had left them. They were both happy with their loot :)


Johnny made "special" waffles for Eli. This consists of waffles with white chocolate chips and syrup. Then while Johnny went back to bed for a little nap, the kids and I hung out and got ready for church. They both looked so precious in their new outfits. We got to church really early, expecting a huge crowd. Turns out most people just came on time. So, Eli got to play on the indoor slide system before Sunday School. The service was beautiful. The stage was full of flowers and the message was very moving. After church, we had a nice lunch at Saltgrass then went home. The kids took a nap and Johnny and I relaxed on the couch watching a little TV. It's been a wonderful weekend.
