Day 9920

           I hope you all had an enjoyable Easter and weekend. Saturdays and Sundays are my normal days off (except for having to go into work a few hours on some Sundays that is, like this Sunday). We had a crazy hectic weekend crammed full of stuff, I feel like I didn't get any rest but DS1 and DS2 had a blast so it was all worth it. Friday night DH and I took DS1 & DS2 to the flashlight Easter egg hunt that our town puts on. They separate the kids into age groups to make it more "fair". DS1 got one egg since he would give/let the little girls have all the other eggs he found. DS2 got two eggs and lost a shoe (which we found later) but he got ran over by some other kids (he was the youngest in this age group and it was the group with the widest age span); luckily he wasn't hurt. So the boys got candy in their little plastic eggs and a pool pass. They insisted they had fun but I am not sure we will be doing it again next year. 
          Saturday we spent the day cleaning the cars and the house, dying the eggs that were hard boiled (plastic tablecloth and all on the table), having dinner at a friend's house and the regular Saturday stuff like laundry. Of course I was up late making the cake for Easter dinner with the in-laws. Sunday was even more crammed full of stuff, DH had to work so it was just DS1 & DS2 and I until 4. We got up early, had breakfast, got ready for church, went to the church's Easter egg hunt (which was an hour before church service and lasted maybe 10 minutes) then the boys went to their Sunday school class room to play with the other kids. I socialized with some friends who go to the Church and then we enjoyed a nice church service. After that it was home to make lunch and change and then off to a family friend's house to socialize and find plastic Easter eggs. After we were there for a few hours I had to go by work for a little bit then we had to drive to the in laws for Easter dinner and the family Easter celebration. Also to hide eggs over and over again for the boys to find. If you ask the boys what Easter is about they say Jesus which I am glad to hear instead of egg hunting or something. After that we came home got ready for bed and helped the boys say their nightly prayers. All and all it was a good weekend, even if it was a busy one. I will leave you with a picture of the boys bounty of plastic eggs from the Easter egg hunt at a family friends. Have a great week everybody!
