Easter seemed to be quite the event around here this year…at last count I think Luke had participated in at least four different Easter Egg Hunts! Needless to say, we had a major stash of candy floating around for weeks after Easter.
The first celebration was with our playgroup here in Holton. Everyone brought eggs to contribute to the hunt, and then we turned the kids loose. Beka even tried to get in on the fun, though she still wasn’t walking very well by herself at the time. Luke tried to help her out though.
Once all the eggs were found, a hush fell over the park as all the kids immediately dug into their baskets, including ours. Beka joined in too, once I made sure to “edit” what was in her basket first. You might be able to tell by looking at their hair in the picture that it was VERY windy that day!
That night after the playgroup hunt, we had an Easter Arts & Crafts night at Parks & Rec. Luke made lots of fun little bunny and chick projects, and Beka got to paint for the first time (helped by Addie and her daughter Lexie).
The next day we headed down to Peck to spend the weekend at Grandma and Grandpa’s house. Uncle Micah, Aunt Wendy and Cousin Ida were all there too! It was very fun to see Beka and Ida start to interact more and more. We think they both got to be better walkers just by spending time together that weekend.
Luke got to “drive” a tractor with (Great) Grandpa Bob too – he was very excited about that!
And after our Easter dinner…another egg hunt!
All in all it was a very fun weekend – the kids always have a great time when we visit family!
