HAPPY EASTER!

Well I've finally gotten my camera out to load my pictures. Here are some from the start of our trip until today. The Easter bunny was quite generous to Jack. He got a new tricycle to ride at Uncle JJ's and Grandma's house, Hi-Ho Cherry-O, a puzzle, a baseball bat and ball, candy and new cars. Laura and Jack searched for eggs that the Easter bunny had to hide in the house since it's raining today. We've had a lot of fun so far and it's just starting!

Jack got the window seat on the airplane. He loved the ride!

Uncle JJ helped Jack put together his new tricycle.

Then they blew some bubbles at the puppy to see if she would chase them. She kinda just sat and watched them.

Then he got Uncle JJ to push him around in the yard.

And Laura, too!

Laura helped Jack dye Easter eggs.

All the girls and Jack, getting their eggs ready for the Easter bunny.

Notice the pan of melted chocolate in front of me and Kelly. At least we were dipping fruit in it.

We went to the park yesterday afternoon and managed to get Jack in the swing. He realized it wasn't too bad after all but still didn't want to stay in it for very long.

We raced Uncle JJ down the slide. We would have won but Jack put his feet on the sides.

So, I raced him by myself. We tied.

Jack hasn't had much of an appetite, maybe because he's been eating chocolate. He does love that.

One of the Christopher's(Barbara's family) Easter traditions is to make an Easter nest. You take the Easter grass and decorate it with flowers. The Easter bunny then leaves gifts in the nest. Jack got to make his first Easter nest and the girls helped him.

Here he is decorating his nest with flowers.

Jordan's helping him.

Looks like the Easter bunny was good to Jack!

He's searching for eggs in the house.

Here's one! He didn't love searching for the eggs. He was more interested in eating the candy in the stuffed plastic eggs. We're probably stuck inside most of the day because the weather here is pretty gloomy. Anyone up for a game of Hi-Ho Cherry-O?
