Easter Day Fun

Hooray for another successful Easter morning come and gone. We have a bunch of pics to share (beware). Here are some shots of the boyz baskets. Caleb got some more dinosaurs. A miniature Luigi, some candy, some bubbles and a cup with his name on it that had tickets to a Salt Lake Bees game.

Zaric and Zaden both got a little sand truck, some bath toys, board books, a bubble necklace and some animal crackers.
And the bunny didn't forget Mom and Dad. Here's what he left us. If you don't know who the giant Reese's egg is for, you haven't been reading my blog close enough ;). We also got a couple water guns. hehehe

The boyz showed us their three separate personalities big time with this holiday. So I'll talk about each one individually. Starting with Zaric.
Zaric was completely un-enthralled with the whole idea for a while. He really could have cared less. I gave him his basket and he just turned away from it. After a little bit he did get curious about the eggs laying about and went and found a couple. You can't see it, but there is one right behind that pillow he's reaching for.
He came back after a while and looked in the basket some and just played with his bubble necklace.

Then again, a while later finally came back to it and decided to check out the rest.


Zaden (on the other hand) was completely opposite and hilarious. As soon as we walked downstairs and he saw the baskets on the counter he started saying "oooh oooh" and waving his arms and reaching for them. So I let him lean over and take the one he wanted. He chose the frog and went right to work pulling out it's contents.



Here he is flipping through the board book.




And playing with his truck.


He however, had really no interest in the eggs at all. I got one pic but not a very good one. So I am not sharing it.

And Caleb. He came downstairs and said the he didn't think the Easter Bunny had come until he checked the plate of carrots he'd left out and found that one had been nibbled on. Then he started looking around. When he spotted the baskets he ran over took out the Luigi and ran it upstairs first thing to show Dad. After that he left his basket for later and ran all over finding eggs everywhere and opening them up immediately to see what was inside.


















After he came back to his basket, he was pretty excited to see all the stuff in it.



I think he was most surprised when I told him what the tickets were for. Check out this face!


After breakfast and getting ourselves dressed, it was so nice out that we decided to head to the park for a bit. Caleb took his balls and bat and we hit some balls around the grass for a while and then let him play on the playground, where we played with Caleb's Easter bubbles.






And Zaric discovered sand. He was pretty content just sitting there and moving his legs all around in it.



And then we locked them up in the playground equipment.


Then we came home to enjoy some of our goodies and to get back to all the chores waiting. Mom was crazy and started a couple projects that now she can't seem to finish. There's always tomorrow...right?
