On Palm Sunday, Walmart was giving away 5X7 photos with the Easter bunny, who is actually female. I did not know that... Remember the Christmas Santa photo? Same thing. Leon is freaked out by both now.
Just wait until he meets the Tooth Fairy...
On Saturday, I took Leon to the city wide Easter egg hunt where he learned how to put the plastic eggs IN his basket. Some of the other little kids were ringers and filled their baskets quickly. Leon got 5. But he was happy, so all was good.
Later on on Saturday, The kids colored the eggs. You're never to old to color Easter eggs! Leon did several with his parents. His daddy was over for a while.
Then Easter sunrise service... With church at 7, little to no sleep for 2 nights already due to this head cold, a casserole to remember and an infant... the sunrise service didn't sound very good anymore... But with enough Ibuprofen and cold meds, we hit the road anyway.
Leon had a new suit to sport and did he ever look dapper!
He was overdue for a nap... As you can tell...
Then after lunch with a cousin and a friend, ALL the kids did an egg hunt. I've been told you're never too old to run through the yard looking for eggs. Is that true? When the only place to hide them in some moldy leaves or right in the middle of the yard? I was feeling pretty miserable and just tossed them out there toward the end...
The hunters with their hauls.
Today I'm running on caffeine and a slurry of cold meds. And I have no voice. I really hope it's a quiet day at work!
How was your Easter?

I hope you are feeling better. It was as a good idea to just toss those last eggs out there being you were feeling crappy...There are some HORRIBLE viruses going around. My son was in bed for 4 days straight last week. He has not been that sick since he was a toddler.
Leon looked super cute all dolled up - and the eggs came out great. The thing that is freaky with the easter bunny costume is the bright red human lips - what bunny has lips like that ???
You poor kid. You really are a trooper though. I wouldn't have been so nice about hiding the eggs. I might have chucked a few at the nearest person. I have bad aim so all would be ok.
I hope you start feeling better!
Leon sure looks adorable in his suit.
Because I thought we were going to be out of town last week, I nixed the idea of coloring eggs. We ended up being home and I would have gone out and bought the dye if anyone had asked. No one seemed to miss them, though.
Hope you're feeling better soon! How else are you going to get that prom dress done?
oh but it looks and sounds like a wonderful Easter! hope you feel better soon and have quiet days at work!
