Easter 2009 Festivities

What a great Easter weekend we had! I got to start my weekend with Friday off for Good Friday. I went and took care of making my dream dinners then headed to pick up mom to celebrate Easter with her. Our new thing with the exception of Christmas is that for holiday's we will spend the day before or the couple of days before with our families then the actual holiday will be just the 3 of us. This is working out so well and things are so stress free! This way, Logan gets to not be so overwhelmed on the actual holiday and he can enjoy it. So, first up was my mom. I picked her up after dream dinners on Friday. We had some errands to run and we took her with us. We had planned to make dinner but decided on a late lunch instead. We went out for lunch then went back to our house so that she could give Logan his Easter basket and watch him find a few eggs. We took her home later that evening. On Saturday, Logan had a soccer game and the Easter bunny was going to be at the YMCA before the game. We left early and went to the Y and let him take a picture with the Easter bunny. He was so funny he just jumped right up and sat on his lap and said "monkies" (instead of cheese) when his picture was taken. Logan had his soccer game then we headed over to Karen' s(Marc's mom) for Easter there. We had some lunch and Logan did another egg hunt and Karen gave him a Easter Basket. We headed home so that we could get Logan ready for bed cause the Easter bunny had to do it's thing :). Logan went to bed and Marc and I got to relax and stay up a little bit together which is something that we rarely get to do. We put the basket and all his stuff that would not fit in the basket like his skateboard and hot wheels sets (hopefully will have pictures soon) beside the basket. It looked like Christmas in the living room. Marc then hid the eggs in the house because we knew there would be snow in the morning. That morning Logan woke us up at 7:30 am (which is really early for him) saying "come on come on the Easter bunny came", so we had to run downstairs. Marc went first and grabbed the camera so he could get Logan's expression when he made it down the stairs. Logan had so much fun with all his new toys and hunting eggs AGAIN. We had planned on going to the Sky Sox game that day and they were going to have a huge easter egg hunt but with all the snow it was cancelled. They will postpone for another day so that will be good. We made lunch (ham, mashed potatos, green beans, deviled eggs, and rolls). We all then took a nap! After the nap we took Logan outside to play in t e snow. It was a weird snow. The snowballs were really hard. Over all we had a FANTASTIC family weekend and none of us are tired since we spread it out a little :)
