Easter Sunday

We stayed home and did Easter alone for the first time and it seems we have mixed reviews. Just kidding, we had and great time and Chad got to hunt for easter eggs time and time again. Mark was a little let down that Chad lost some of the "giddy-up" for finding eggs he had last year, but he's coping well (Mark, that is.) Both the kids got easter baskets which included a stuffed frog (new bedtime buddy) and a frisbee for Chad and a bunch of baby toys for Alli. Chad's basket was also chock full of candy, the whereabouts he still can't figure out. Mary was looking at some candy and asked Mark, "Are these jelly beans?" Before Mark could respond, Chad piped in, "No, they're Easter...jelly beans." What was Mary thinking?

Two weeks ago, Grandma Johnson taught Chad to paint eggs using a Q-tip as a brush. So naturally, Chad sat down, grabbed a crayon, and picked up where he had left off. It took us awhile to figure out what in the world he was doing.
