Call It What You Want...

We've returned from our Spring Break trip to do a little work around the house with the rest of the week. I like not having to go straight from vacation away back to the daily grind, aside from a chocolate event tonight for me, work tomorrow night (also for me), Tim teaching Sunday school and me in the nursery and then having confirmation all on Sunday...

Here are a few pictures of the fun week:



The boys are in the car, ready to go. Mark is carrying the cross he made in school to take to Grandma. Adam suggested she could put a "mag-a-net" on it and hang in on the "'frigerator".

We spent Friday afternoon to Wednesday morning at Mom & Dad's in Kentucky, including the necessary Easter activities like coloring eggs



Church with the family




Finding Easter baskets in the basement. The "easter bunny" left a trail of candy from the stairs around the corner to where the baskets were. Mark excitedly ran along the "trail", while Adam carefully picked up each piece of candy. Note the armload of candy when he arrived at the baskets.


Hunting Easter eggs in the backyard. Grandpa hid the 48 eggs that Grandma had filled, and the boys had a wonderful time running around finding them.


Mark ended up with a few more than Adam, so here, you see Mark sharing some with his little brother. What a sweet boy! (In the end, we just dumped all the candy into a communal bowl anyway, but the gesture was worth seeing.)



"Look happy about the Easter eggs you found" was the instruction. Adam, of course, has his own way of doing things.
