Egg Hunt and More

We have had a great Spring Break! The week has flown by, but it's been fun. 

 

Our sweet neighbor took this picture. They were walking down to our house to play and she snapped this pic of the boys cutting the grass. Wherever Matt is, Fulton is right behind him. 

Thursday we went to Aldridge Gardens and had the best time exploring around. We had saved up the end pieces of several loaves of bread and the fish loved it. 

 

We even played a little duck-duck-goose.

Friday was full of Easter activities. Daddy made us a delicious breakfast complete with bunny shaped pancakes. He is one awesome daddy. 

We have really been striving to teach Fulton what Easter is truly about. The death and resurrection of our Savior. This is a challenging concept for a three year old, but we made Resurrection Eggs to help him visualize it. 

 

After we dipped the marshmallow and wrapped it, We put it in the oven. 

He was keeping a close eye on the rolls. 

 

After they cooled, we opened them to see that the marshmallow was gone. 

"He is not here; He is risen, just as He said" Matthew 28:6. 

Several nights this week we have gone through our Resurrection Eggs as well. It's pretty cool to see how much he has absorbed in just a few days. Matt was reviewing with him and 

I love hearing Fulton speak the truth. 

 

Friday we also saw some baby chicks at a local store and they were the cutest things. 

We had a busy day and did a little relaxing on the porch because the weather was perfect. Minus the gallons of pollen, but oh well!

 

Friday night we dropped Fulton off at Kiki and Pete's house to enjoy a little Easter egg dying. 

He had a ball. Matt and I got to have a little date night. Twice in one week?! 

Our family is good to us. 

 

After dinner, Fulton, Daddy and Pete enjoyed a little basketball 

while sister and I cheered them on. 

This morning we had our Easter egg hunt at church, complete with just about every bouncy house you could imagine. 

I even got in on the action. 

 

It was great to see sweet friends there too!

Then it was time to hunt some eggs. Not much actual hunting going on, more like 

just picking them up, but he still loved it. 

Sweet boy did good!

After a full bucket, he was back to finishing off his popcorn. 

And on the way to the car he decided he wanted to conquer this big slide that he backed out of earlier. He made it up and decided he loved it. After five more slides, we finally made it to the car!
