Getting Ready for Easter

Friday was Hayden's Easter party at school and she was so excited that Daddy got to come too.  They had an Easter egg hunt and each child had a certain number they had to find, so now I understand why I had to number each egg that I sent.  Hayden was #2 and she found all of her eggs, with a little help from Mommy and Daddy.  Then they had a picnic lunch with chicken nuggets, chips and fruit.  After the party we went to Nana and Steve's house to play, then it was back home to dye eggs.  The girls had so much fun that we had to promise to do it again tonight. 

This morning Mark went hunting and when he got back we headed to Athens for the day.  We had lunch at Carrabbas, which was one of the best meals we have had in a while.  Even Mark enjoyed it and he hates Italian food!  Then we went to Academy Sports and bought Hayden a tennis skirt, Mark was determined she was going to have one!  Gracie was upset that she didn't get a tennis skirt but they really didn't have one that was her size.  After a quick trip and spending some money, we headed to the movies.  We took the girls to see HOP!  It was a really cute kid movie and it was about believing in the Easter Bunny.  It was just good timing that we went today, so Hayden made sure to get in bed and go right to sleep so that the Easter Bunny would come!  Gracie still doesn't really understand but she will be pleased in the morning too.  After a very full and fun day, we came home and dyed more eggs.  It was a very wonderful day for our family! I must admit that this pregnant Mommy is very worn out today!

Tomorrow is Easter and we are going to Grandmama's house for lunch and an egg hunt.  I know the girls are going to have lots of fun.  Then hopefully we can get home and get a little rest before we start another week of school and work.
