The Saturday before Easter, the kids got their first opportunity to color easter eggs. Then, we went to an Easter Egg Hunt at Hathaway Park across from Noah’s school. We watched Veggie Tales “An Easter Carol” after dinner.

Sunday morning the kids awoke to baskets of goodies left by the Easter bunny before we went to celebrate our risen Savior at church. Then we had lunch at TGI Friday’s, where Noah ate a cheeseburger and fries instead of his normal chicken fingers (helped along by the bribe of ice cream and chocolate syrup). We relaxed the rest of the afternoon and evening.

May the hope of Easter fill all of your days.

In Honor of Dr. Seuss’ birthday, Noah’s school had a Green Eggs and Ham dinner (courtesy of Beaches restaurant). Noah won a $25 gift certificate to Beaches in the raffle and also got a book. And he surprised me in the library afterward by picking up Green Eggs and Ham and reading it to me. He didn’t have time to finish it at school so pulled out his copy at home to finish reading it to me. I got the last little bit on video.

Noah participated in the Pinewood Derby held by his Royal Rangers outpost on Sunday. He wanted a Dinoco Lightning McQueen car and Dad delivered. The car came in third place in the race and took the Best of Show trophy too.

There was a total lunar eclipse last Wednesday. Though this photo wasn’t our view, we did get a pretty good view and Pat brought out his telescope that he got for Christmas so we could get a close up view.
