Eggs…Eggs…and more EGGS…this was the theme of the weekend! It started on Saturday morning with an egg hunt at the community center a block from our house. This was a much bigger event than we expected and with kids 10 and under all trying to get every egg possible we felt lucky to have Thomas get 4.
After that started our weekend project of putting bead board in the basement. As always Thomas was an excellent helper going back and forth from helping to “hamma” and “glue” to taking breaks and playing. After lunch, Mike and I made some real progress and got a couple walls done. Then it was time for Mike to do some work on the trim alone, so Thomas, Stella and I headed to the grocery store to grab stuff for dinner.
After dinner we successfully dyed Easter eggs with minimal staining! Thomas liked dipping the eggs and using the tool to “hold them.” Only 3 eggs were lost to the never ending desire to “crack them.”
Easter morning started off with Mike and I telling Thomas that the Easter bunny had come. We then proceeded to let him open some of the eggs that were left inside and told him about why we celebrate Easter. 
We then finished up some house stuff and started to get ready for Max and Amy and our dinner. Thomas adores these two and the from the minute they get here he hardly bats an eye at Mike or I.
After dinner we went to the park with the neighbor boys and everyone got some running in. What a fun and productive weekend! We hope everyone had a wonderful Easter!
~you will notice our house changed colors in the picture- “the guys” have been working hard in our nice Seattle weather to paint the house. We are so pleased with how it looks and can’t wait for it to be done.
