Easter Sunday

I consider this year to be our first REAL Easter as a family because Greyson was actually old enough to participate in the festivities and we were all together (Greyson did participate in an Easter egg hunt last year at Susan's but Clayton was in Iraq). We dyed eggs the night before (we got home late from picking up Cris from the airport and Greyson wasn't quite ready for bed) and after Greyson finally went to sleep (having a guest always makes one too excited to sleep when they are suppose to) Clayton, Cris and I hide all of the Easter goodies. The next morning Greyson looked for his eggs, and then I made breakfast (Biscuits and Gravy, a family tradition - it was my first time). After breakfast we went to Walmart so Cris could pick up a few things for her stay and Greyson spent his birthday money from Grandma Cris (He bought a four-wheeler, pictures below). Once we arrived home from shopping we spent the rest of the day relaxing (for Cris and I that meant getting a little sun, for Greyson that meant a nap and for Clayton that meant searching the web for tattoo ideas)...after relaxing time was spent outdoors enjoying the beautiful weather. Greyson got to ride his new four-wheeler while the adults watched. After dinner and until Greyson went to sleep that night, we spent our time outdoors. Even after Greyson went to bed us adults enjoyed the nice weather...if only we had a firepit. It was a wonderful Easter, spent with family. I hope that the rest of my family enjoyed their Easter as well. :)



Coloring Eggs.

Greyson did a decent job.

Daddy decided to join the fun.

I guess I wasn't doing a good enough job.

Watch and Learn.

And here's my Easter basket!

A chocolate bunny and a book (Curious George)

The last egg.

An insincere smile for the camera.

All Greyson's stuff!!!

Wow!

The prize shot.

All our colored eggs.

My first ever attempt at Bisucits and Gravy.
It was YUMMY!

Peeling the eggs was becoming frustrating.
So Clayton took over.

Grandma Cris bought Greyson some big boy undies.
He did okay.

His new four-wheeler

Loves it!

Daddy showing him how to turn.

He's got the hang of it now.
