Happy Easter!!! Sunday morning, Easter basket treasure hunt. The bunny did good this year….a basket with a few of Lando’s favorite things: Dino book, a water torpedo gun, and Cheetos (a treat I don’t let him indulge in). Baking preparations done and we headed off to my Dad’s house (Tati and Nani) for more celebrations.
Wishing my other 2 out of state brothers, their wives, and my niece and nephew could join us!! The rest of the crew as follows: left to right- Landon, myself, Jake (16), Bella (11), Tanner (17), and Scot. April 8th happened to also by my brother Jake’s 16th birthday. The day was a double family celebration!! Jakey selected Easter/birthday dinner this year to be non-traditional, homemade lasagna and pizza. Delicious!!
The kids, sans Scot and I, partook in the egg hunt searching for cash and candy filled eggs and the high dollar golden egg!!
Counting their loot!! I seriously miss participating in the cash egg hunt!!
Egg toss!!
The day held some extra fun surprises. My brother, Tanner, sent his girlfriend, Kaitlyn, on a scavenger hunt leading her the final spot where he asked her to prom! Of course she said, “yes”!
My 11 year old sister, Bella, had been working on her baking skills and made this baseball diamond cake for Jake’s birthday. She is quite the little baker! Jake’s girlfriend happens to have a birthday just days after his. He wanted to give her her gifts with the family present. My brothers are serious romantics!!! Watching them was so awesome and exciting. Scot and I were reminded they we were their ages when we met, I was 15 and Scot 17….Time sure has flown by.
A little swim, baseball, soccer, football, and alas, we are exhausted!! Happy Sunday, Happy Easter!
