It was another busy Easter Sunday. We met up with Papa Ken, Bev and Auntie Greta at Grace Lutheran for a big breakfast of eggs, hashbrowns and french toast. All of the kids joined the adults for the service, and Jillian worked on following along on the hymnal. We went home and rested up afterwards.
At 2:00, we headed to Castle Rock. Everyone ate the potluck lunch, then geared up for the egg hunt. The little kids all got to hunt in the entire upper yard, since they had outgrown the small lower yard. Jillian and Bridget were super speedy, trying to keep up with cousin Rielee. Tor took his time, and got some help from Mommy and Daddy. After finding all the eggs, they opened them as well as the baskets. Tor came up big with the Batman Hall of Doom. The kids then went outside and hid eggs for the adult hunt ... they did a pretty good job of it.
Next was the egg roll, and Jillian and Bridget stayed in until nearly the end (Tor was out after the first toss, but he just kept rolling it anyways just for fun). This was followed by the egg toss. Jillian and Daddy partnered up, and Bridget was with Mommy (Tor just played in the fountain and got soaked). Bridget hucked it short on the first toss and the egg broke ... she was not happy. Jillian tossed and caught the egg quite a few times before going out. She was kind of disappointed, but then felt better when she saw how long she stayed in it.
By the end of the day, we were all exhausted.
