Sorry we haven't updated our blog in awhile. Things have been a bit busy... It has been nice to be on Spring Break this week. Since Don is a school teacher, he got to be home with the kids all week. In addition to some quality family time, he also had the chance to re-build the front fence which was partially torn down last summer. Everyone is glad the fence project is done and we are very excited about how it turned out.
Spring Break also means Easter! This year the kids had the chance to do two fun Easter Egg hunts. The first was down at Grandma and Grandpa's in Maple Valley. Grandpa planned a challenging clue-based egg hunting experience for the kids that they thoroughly enjoyed. Apparently someone (I won't mention the redhead's name...) commented that last year's clues were too easy so Grandpa made sure this year's were extra challenging.
On Saturday, Nana and Uncle Dan visited and the kids enjoyed a second egg hunt, this one in our backyard. This was Collin's first experience with hunting eggs. He REALLY enjoyed being outside. Talk about a curious kid! Collin is an amazing explorer. He seems to feel compelled to check out EVERYTHING. After collecting a few eggs, he dropped them and started to chase the cat. His attention was later captivated by the Magnolia bush and then the grass and then the slide and then.... The other kids had a blast chasing down the hidden eggs and chocolate bunnies (Yes, their bunnies were hidden too). Only one tragedy. We were unable to locate one egg. Squirrel must have gotten it...
