Easter with the Beeston

This year, I really wanted to start a few Easter traditions. I almost talked my way out of it because I thought that the boys were too young to really "get it" and participate. Then I figured that I could probably come up with some type of excuse every year.

SO, we started by having some friends over on Friday to decorate Easter eggs. Unfortunately I didn't capture the 2 adults and 3 babies at the table, but I did take a picture of the end products. From left to right, there is Billy, a football, me, our pet chick, Logan, and Taylor.

Logan and Taylor were talking practically the whole time, while Kylee was observing the unfamiliar setting and listening to my loud little guys. Every now and then, the boys would get quiet long enough for Kylee to say something. It was fun to watch.

The next day, we went to a friend's house for an Easter Egg Hunt. Logan and Taylor really enjoyed grabbing the colorful eggs, which went straight into their mouths, as does everything else. Every now and then, Billy and I could convince them to put the eggs into the baskets. The eggs were, for the most part, filled with goodies for the adults. But my friends were thoughtful enough to fill half of them with puffs for the kiddos. We had a great time and the weather could not have been better.

Then on Sunday, we gave the boys their Easter Baskets. They were both very curious to find out what was inside. Sorry boys, once again, the eggs were, for the most part, filled with goodies for mommy and daddy. What else was I going to put inside of them? But there was a book for each one of them. I think they will really enjoy them because they are Touch and Feel books.

HAPPY EASTER, Logan & Taylor!
