Easter Sunday

Living in town with both sides of family has its pros and cons. A definite pro is that we get to see our families all the time and our kids will grow up around their grandparents. A con is that you run around like a crazy person on holidays because since both are in town you feel like there is no reason why you shouldn't spend time with both. Easter Sunday was no different. It was amazingly full though and we felt very blessed to spend the entire day with those we love the most (We missed you Uncle B, Aunt Tessa, D and Sissy!!!!). We ate way too much food, played with cousins, hunted for eggs, ate more food, played with more cousins, and hunted for more eggs. It was a blast...I was just EXHAUSTED by the time we got home at 7:15 last night. We had been going strong since 6am and Will had only managed about a 45 minute nap in the car in route to Round 2. He was a major trooper and looked absolutely adorable in his Easter attire!

I cannot get over how much bigger he looks this year in his Easter get up. I still got away with the knee socks and John even approved his outfit (for the most part...). A little boy in knee socks completely melts my heart!

Of course we are ALL boy and our Easter outfit could not be complete without a boo boo which required a Handy Manny band-aid on our FACE. He just had a band-aid on his forehead and literally it had just healed as of Thursday so he didn't have to wear a giant band-aid on his face anymore. Then Friday, John was off and Will's school was closed so they took advantage and headed to the park bright and early. I get a call about 8:30 that Will had busted his chin open on the slide. Very little tears, but a gash the size of a staple that required liquid suture and a lovely band-aid...oh well, he is still as cute as can be!The Easter Egg hunt on my side of the family is BIG. There are lots of kids and money/gift cards are involved. John and I were laughing because we said next year we don't think Will will need any help. We were pointing some eggs out to him this year, but I think he would have done fine on his own!This egg was hidden under some pine straw and Will started digging for it...he looked just like Bentley!My two favorite boys...Will and Pops...By the time we got to Round 2, Will was tuckered out and was able to catch a second wind by a 45 minute cat nap.Emma's bubble machine was a huge hit!
