Happy (Belated) Easter! These boys had a good week of Easter celebrations. They enjoyed an egg hunt at school on Thursday. Luke even got to attend Will's class party in addition to his own, but did not do Will's class egg hunt. On Saturday we did a community-wide egg hunt at a local park. The weather that morning was nice but due to rain the day before, it was a pretty muddy experience. We had a little issue with Will running off in the crowd but overall it was a good time. After that we went to Will's favorite restaurant- Chappy's Deli. On Easter Sunday the boys dug into their baskets early but we did not hunt eggs before church. The boys got some new coloring and sticker books, some garden tools and a giant magnifying glass for bug watching. Despite our best efforts, Will had already downed two Cadbury eggs before breakfast.
We dressed for church and I tried my hardest to get a good picture of both boys looking at the camera at the same time. We have dozens of goofy-looking pictures and few good ones. We attended the church service and did our best to explain Easter to Will, fielding questions like "How do people come back from the dead" and "Is Pastor Rob Jesus?"
After church we came home and, as luck would have it, the Easter bunny hid eggs in our backyard while I was getting the boys changed into their play clothes. They hunted eggs for the third time. Luke was an old pro and pretty enthusiastic. Will found a few eggs and then seemed content to stop. They enjoyed some of the spoils of the hunt and then we had lunch at Outback Steakhouse. I offered a nice Easter meal but we ultimately decided to make it a relaxing day and eat out. The rest of the day was spent relaxing (me and David) and playing/napping (the boys). Overall it was a good day!
Though I purchased Easter cards to send, I never did get them in the mail. On the upside, a case that I had been working on that was to go to trial soon has settled, so now my brain is not so fried. We're looking forward to a trip soon to celebrate Will's fifth birthday with a Lego party! Below are the rest of the pictures from our Easter week:

| Lots of pictures like this. We tried to get them sitting up and looking at the same time. Nearly impossible. |
