We had a quiet low-key Easter at home. The day before, we took the boys outside and let them dye the eggs. Morgan loved putting the eggs in the different colors and Edward loved trying to figure out which color combos he could play with. It was a lot of fun and of course, a couple eggs got broken.
On Easter Morning, the boys both woke up around 6:30am which is completely unheard of in this household. hahaha. Edward just came and crawled into bed with Daddy and I. Morgan, however, quietly snuck downstairs to check things out. He came back upstairs with an egg he had found and asked me to open it. I let him eat the pack of peanuts that were in the egg while I finished waking up and then I took the boys downstairs to check out everything. The boys loved their Easter baskets and even more, they loved the egg hunt. Edward had eggs hidden in the living room and Morgan had eggs hidden in the playroom. After they found their dozen eggs, they got to open them all and eat what they wanted.
After Darrel woke up, I made some pancakes for breakfast. I made some bunny tails pancakes. All the boys liked them. Though I made them way too big, so we took the head and ears off of everyones and saved those for a later meal. In the afternoon, Morgan wanted us to hide the eggs for him to find about 4 times. Then later, we hid some outside for them to find. Morgan loved it and asked for a few days for the eggs to be hidden for him. Darrell had a couple friends from his UCSC college years come by to visit, so I made a couple batches of homemade pizza dough and put out a slew of toppings so we could all make personal pizzas. They were a big hit. We finished the day out with a homemade carrot cake and the boys got a glow-stick bath.
