Easter

Easter this year included some of the same traditions, as well as a few new ones to change things up a bit. You know us...wild and wacky!  The first big change is that we headed up to Grandma's house late Saturday night instead of on Sunday so that we didn't have to drive both ways in one day.  This was the first time ever that we woke up NOT IN OUR HOUSE on a holiday.  We planned things out though leaving the Easter Bunny a note letting him know where we would be.  Our plan worked too because he found us!!!  Another addition to Easter this year was hot cross buns for breakfast.  I've been learning this song in piano, and Grandma found some real ones for me so that now I know what I'm talking about.  After breakfast Grandma asked for our help in hiding the eggs for the much anticipated annual egg hunt.  Now that we are old and more responsible she figured we were up to the task.  Due to rain, we had to have the hunt indoors this year again, but we made the best of it.  Thanks to our excellent hiding skills, the hunt was pretty intense and took a bit longer this year, but every egg was found eventually!  The rain did let up just long enough for us to tromp outside for a silly string fight, and burn off some of our energy.  It was a wonderful Easter, and now we need to shift our focus to Halloween!
