Easter 2012!

We didn't get to go to Houston for Easter this year because both Drew and Dilan had soccer games and Drew had his first flag football game on Saturday. It was just too hard to do both and because David is the coach of all 3 teams, we felt it was important to honor his responsibility to be here. And due to the very cute Easter baskets with names embroidered on them being in the storage unit, we went with some new Easter buckets this year. I like to do less candy and more little gifts so each of the kids got pajamas/clothes stuffed at the bottom of their bucket, a movie, books, and a toy of some kind along with candy that they each prefer.

Drew got the Encyclopedia Brown books which were David's favorites, a new Thomas movie, the train, Scruff, and the zoo train cars, 2 new pairs of pajamas, and only chocolate candy which he requested. Dilan got a new Strawberry Shortcake movie, a Strawberry shortcake book and a princess book, a new Barbie, a new outfit and a princess t-shirt, and gum which is her favorite thing ever along with some other candy. Drake got three new pairs of pajamas, a new Thomas movie, a new book, some rabbit ears and some new sippy cups (which again he will not drink out of but I had to try!) and some candy too. All in all, the kids enjoyed what the Easter bunny brought them.

Dressed in Sunday clothes and ready to hunt for the eggs! All of them did so well this year, even Drake, who completely got the hang of it once we showed him what to do.
