Today is Easter Sunday!
I don't know why it is called Easter Sunday...it should be called Easter Weekend. Our Easter festivities started on Saturday when Sashi asked if she could have her picture taken with the Easter Bunny. Wow, i thought...Sashi really wants to have her picture taken with a Big, fuzzy, yellow Bunny?? I was shocked...so shocked that i answered yes! Why was i shocked? For those of you who do not know Sashi...she HATES Santa Claus and will scream like someone is trying to kill her if you try and get her near him....so i thought the Easter bunny would have the same reaction. So we went to the Nugget Mall and stood in line to have pictures taken. Sashi didn't know what to think of the bunny once she was face to face with him. But after the bunny showed sashi that they both were fuzzy (sashi had a green fuzzy sweater on) Sashi jumped onto the bunny's lap without a problem. Sashi carried this photo around all weekend long. I think i should put it in a frame and hang it on her wall.
After the Bunny photos....we went to the store to buy eggs to dye. Ian was WAY into this this year and had to have enough eggs. I asked him how many eggs we should get this year and he replied "i know how many." I thought this was very funny so we went egg shopping. I got one dozen eggs. I thought this would be enough. Ian thought about the 12 eggs and said, " mom, if we only have 12 eggs and there are 4 of us...that means we only get to dye 3 eggs each and that just isn't enough." I about died. Wow! This child bellyaches every time he has to do math...but he just thought about this and BANG the answer was given. I said, golly Ian you just did a math problem...i will get you more eggs. We went home with 24 eggs. We dyed the eggs the most beautiful colors. Ian and Sashi had a blast. I am wondering what on earth i will be doing with 24 Easter eggs?? I don't like boiled eggs Ha! I am thinking maybe Ian will be having an egg in his lunch everyday this week *wink*.
On Saturday night...Ian and Sashi could hardly fall asleep. They were tossing and turning in bed until 12:00am. The children woke up promptly at 6:30am wanting to have the egg hunt. We had the egg hunt at 7:00am and then got dressed and went to church. I must tell you the kids have been on a sugar high all day long. I swear they are like little molecules..bouncing everywhere. I am so grateful that they fell asleep. I was starting to wonder if the chocolate high would wear off?!
We had a good Easter even though i think i am going to sleep while i write this post. I hope everyone had a great day.

Love,
Mia
