Easter Weekend

So I know I am behind in blogging and keeping up with what is going on around here. So here it goes. On Easter weekend we celebrated my stepbrother Doug's birthday on Saturday. We went over to Mary Anne and Josh's place to meet up with everyone. Had a great time letting Aedyn play with his cousins, although the Jeep made me a bit nervous. Connor got showered with attention, especially from Catie!! We finally got to meet Daniel, and he is an absolute doll! After eating, being merry, Doug opening gifts, and eating cake, the kids opened Easter baskets(well Connor got a bunny) from Grandma and Grandpa Young. We did have a bit of a scare, we lost Aedyn in the house for about 2 minutes, we found him in Catie's room in the closet. He loves to play in Connor's closet, opening and shutting the doors.

The next day was Easter and it was a busy day. We woke up late, the boys let us sleep in until 8:30 am. we got up, ate breakfast, then got ready for the day. We put the boys in matching outfits. Mom, Kat, Jon and Heather came up and we all went to church for easter service, which is not a typical Easter service with the pastor Francis Chan. But through the boys being fussy, Aedyn missing his nap(not a smart move on our part), we got through the service and headed home. Nina and Brian joined us then for dinner. I already had a roast in the crockpot and fix scalloped potatoes, salad and asparagus. During dinner Aedyn and Connor opened their Easter baskets from Grammy Bev. We had brownies for dessert and then the Riverside crowd headed home, Nina and Brian hung out and we played some games. After Aedyn got up form his nap the boys opened Easter baskets from us and the Easter bunny, and we headed outside for some family photos and sidewalk chalk drawing. I wanted to be able to have Aedyn hunt for eggs , but it just didn't happen. Overall it was a great Easter!
