The Willoughby Easter was a little rushed, but still nice this year!!!!
I had been fighting bronchitis for over a month when Easter came around this year. I was SUPER busy at work and so run down from taking Paityn to softball every night of the week.
My mom and dad were able to come up on Saturday which was so nice….That gave me the opportunity to run to the grocery store to pick up food for Easter Sunday dinner and also get basket items for the kids. I am usually so prepared when it come to holidays, but this year have been running so far behind on everything!!!
Saturday evening the kids and I dyed some Easter eggs and later that evening when they fell asleep I was able to get their baskets all put together along with Paul’s (of course). My mom and dad helped me hide over 80 plastic eggs which had candy and money in all of them. When Paul got home that evening from work, (about 11:00 PM) he helped me hide the colored eggs. That is usually his job in the morning, but we just figured it would be easier to get everything completed the night before. We also usually hide eggs outside, but since we have been up here in Oregon have been unable to do that. The rain usually puts a stop to that!!!
Easter Sunday morning came to fast. The kids woke us all up very early, but who isn’t excited about Easter?
They first went through their baskets, digging, dumping, and filling their cheeks with delicious candy!!!!
Once the baskets were empty they both began finding eggs all over the house. Paityn is getting older so we had to hide some really good this year for her. The last egg was found about 11:30 AM. We were all pretty happy with our hiding abilities.
Paul had to leave for work, which really sucked
Mom, Dad, Paityn, Maddux, and I had a wonderful meal with plenty of leftovers…..
