We were going to Snowflake for Easter and Dev took that Friday off so Thursday we drove up after he got home from work. When we got there it was already getting late so we went and said hello to Melissa and the boys and then headed to my mom's to get some sleep.
The next day we went and watched Dane play baseball. They played Holbrook, or beat Holbrook rather :) It was a really good game and I am glad that we were able to come and watch him. Deagan thought it was pretty exciting to sit and watch his Uncle Dane playing baseball. He sat on Josh's lap in the truck most of the time pretending to drive... his favorite thing in the world.
Saturday my Mom and I took Deagan to see Horton Hears A Who. Deagan had never been to the movies before so we weren't sure what we were in for. He was amazed by everything at first and just sat there staring. After awhile he was more comfortable and thorougly enjoyed his M&M cookies and White Cherry Icee. He did really good, better than we thought he would. My mom and I enjoyed ourselves also... it was a pretty cute movie. Thanks Mom for taking us! After the movie Dev and I took Deagan over to Grandma and Grandad's. Some of the grandkids were there coloring eggs.
Dev and Josh had to join in on the fun of course :)
Tanner and Brooklin hard at work.
All of the eggs turned out really cute, everyone did a good job. And where was Deagan while all this was going on... well since eggs don't have wheels he was not at all interested. He was on the ground driving his truck around, fine and content. Silly kid.
After we colored eggs and had a bite to eat we had an Easter egg hunt for the younger kids. Deagan was all for this idea. Dev let him know there might be candy or money in the eggs. It was so fun to watch him run around and look for these eggs, he got so excited whenever he found one. He would chuck it at the ground to break it open and see what was inside. It was pretty entertaining.
Easter morning Deagan sat up in bed and said, "I want my Easter." Dev and I laughed and took him out in the front room to find his Easter basket. I didn't get any pictures though, dangit! I don't know what I was thinking. He got a lot of good stuff, had fun finding more eggs and ate way too much candy. Chocolate bunnies for breakfast is not a good idea. Once a year is okay though. Hopefully next year we will remember to do breakfast and than Easter baskets. We had a great weekend and loved seeing you all. We love you and miss everyone who didn't make it.
My brother came home with us and it has been wonderful having him here to keep Deagan entertained for me. We are in the process of buying a house... again... (hopefully everything works out this time, we've got our fingers crossed!) so things have been crazy this week for me. It has been nice to have a helping hand while Dev is at work. Not what Braz had in mind for Spring Break I am sure. Thanks though, I owe ya one. My mom came down Thursday night and we went to the valley yesterday to get her a new car. She got a Nissan Altima. It is so nice, she loves it. I even got to drive it home :) Thanks mom. They are going back on Sunday and we will be sad to see them go. It is always nice when they come and see us. Deagan loves having them here and will miss them. Him and Braz had a good time together this week.
