Easter Celebrations
My favorite part of Easter is the egg hunt at my Grandma Genny's. We run around the house finding our plastic eggs and calling out the colors of everybody elses. After all (or most) of the eggs are found we gather at the end of the extended table to talk and open our eggs. It's fun to be a kid again.
All the cousins wearing our wacky teeth.

I love the sign on this basket. The boys labeled them so the Easter Bunny wouldn't get mixed up. Underneath Tyson it says "I rock". Hayden woke up at 4:30 am and couldn't fall back asleep. I eventually took an alarm clock into his room and had him wait until 6:00 to go downstairs.
The big hit was the mighty beans the Easter Bunny left. The excitement didn't last long once they figured out they weren't as cool as the commercial.
We went to the egg hunt at Grandma Kay's house. The boys always ask about the events we get to do with her. My mom and Uncle Tom braved the cold to watch them hunt (well, pick up eggs off the ground with tons of other little kids).
We also went to the JDRF breakfast at the Grand America hotel. We had a nice breakfast and went on a treasure hunt on the main floor of the hotel. Then the boys made pretend sushi out of rice crispy treats, peanut butter and raisins.
