Happy Easter
This morning Erin and I ran/walked 11 miles. I took Pali the dog for a couple miles with us. It took forever but we survived. We were both PMSing too. Dad and the kids played at home, played games, ate snack together. After lunch the kids dyed Easter eggs. So fun, the kids loved it. Their hands got all dyed too. I made 14 eggs thinking that was enough but the dying went fast.
Dyed hands are much easier cleaning in the bath, so the kids took a bath. While in bath we said we thought we heard something…we said the Easter bunny? While the kids were in the bath dad hid the eggs in the yard. The kids picked up lots of eggs, when they came in to see what was in them, they went out and looked for more. So cute but it goes by fast. We came in and opened all the eggs, they both put on their tattoos (Tow Mater and Abby Cadaby) and ate lots of M&M’s and Jelly Beans. We had a fun time with the kiddos. They played outside for a bit and just got all wet. I think I change their pants at least twice a day, ugh. Then they watched Thomas and Curious George. The kids played inside for a while, Nicole rode Kota the dinasour while Justin grocery shopped. Then they heaed outside in the backyard, they are so busy. They played with water and dirt=mud. Luckily they didn’t get too dirty. We decided that we should go to the park, so we headed to Blue Gum. The kids had fun playing in the sand and then played on the structure a bit. They needed to get out. We came home and had a proper Easter dinner, ham. The kids were pretty hungry, especially Justin (wonder if he is going through a growth spurt). After dinner the kiddos played in the backyard, basketball. Then Nikki and I took Pali for a little walk. We came home and cleaned up then it was time to go upstairs. Upstairs the kids pretended money was candy. And played with it and put it in baskets. Got ready for bed, brushed teeth, and read books. Justin is snoring away but Nicole is still awake.
