Easter morning got a bit of a late start because everyone slept in. The birthday dinner must have wiped us all out! But the Easter Bunny didn't disappoint. He sprinkled Tootsie Rolls around the house for the boys to pick up. Will grumbled that he wasn't the one who sprinkled them, so why should he have to pick them up? So much for the fun! Xan grabbed one Tootsie Roll in each fist and tried to eat them, wrapper and all.
The Easter Bunny brought Will a Easter basket full of candy and Xan a small wagon with sand toys. The rake and shovel were especially fun when he used them to beat his Mom and Dad on the feet. Mommy and Daddy gave each of them a book.
Grandma Peggy and Grandpa Paul spoiled the boys with summer PJs. They also gave Will a Plasma Dragon, an ugly thing that hatches out of a green egg and slime. That was the one toy that Will had had his eye on all week. Now that he knows that the parts are interchangeable between dragons, he wants to collect them all. There's a birthday gift idea for those of you who were asking!
Aunt Brenda and Uncle Jim sent Kettle Corn for Mom, Cadbury Eggs for Dad. and adorable hooded towels for the boys. They also sent Xan a cute Spiderman outfit for his birthday - he looks great in the hat!
Aunt Vic and Uncle Earl packed everything into one bag and said that we could probably figure out what went to whom. Both boys got socks (will loved the camo ones and plans to wear them with his Superman camo outfit, he informed us) and then there was a spatula and a $5 bill. Not sure if this was the plan, but Rodney was very excited about a new egg spatula and Mom can always use $5 for scrapbook adhesive. We were all happy campers.
We'll have Easter Dinner and Grandma Nancy and Uncle Mark's House tonight, so I am sure there will be some more Easter cheer later!
