The kids woke Tara & I up around 8:00am this morning,
which shows some restraint on their part I suppose. I think that they were up
earlier checking out their baskets and watching TV, but they didn't get anything
out which I know had to be killing them. After we all managed to make it to the
living room the kids emptied out their baskets, devouring a ton of candy in the
process. With the baskets empty and the eggs found, we moved out to the kitchen
to make breakfast (homemade waffles, pancakes, bacon, and sausage). As you can
see from the pictures, everybody enjoyed themselves greatly!
Easter at Home

attacked by the kids. From the left are Jayden's, Drew's, Tyler's,
and Samantha's baskets with Rodney & Tara's new Crocs loaded up with
candy too.

Sammy showing off her new book from her Easter basket. Sam also
got a new Webkinz, a wireless Playstation 2 controller, the Marley &
Me movie, and her very own Pokémon Platinum game (no more fighting
to borrow one of Tyler's), not to mention her fair share of candy as
well.

Tyler showing off his copy of the Pokémon Platinum game (now he
and Sam can battle each other). Tyler also got a wireless
Playstation 2 controller, a Webkinz stuffed animal, a Harry Potter book, and
the Bedtime Stories movie in addition to a bunch of candy.

After we recovered from eating our breakfast,
we got ourselves cleaned up to head over to Grandpa Jerry & Grandma Gail's house
for dinner and an egg hunt. The egg hunt occurred after dinner with the big kids
looking all over the back yard and the little ones searching in the front yard.
Easter at Jerry & Gail's House

Drew found an egg in the middle of this bush, but had quite a
difficult time getting to it.
|
|
Jayden didn't have any difficulty getting this one off of the
ground.
|
|
Drew also found an egg in outside the window. Good thing he was
just tall enough to reach it!
|
|
Tyler was walking around looking for more eggs but was having a
hard time finding them at this point.
|
|
Sam found an egg sitting on the deck, but was already looking
around to find more.
|
|
Tyler found an egg in the leaves, but had a hard time getting it
out of the wire around the garden.
