Easter

Easter was a lot of fun this year. We went to our neighborhood's annual Easter egg hunt on Saturday. The kids collected eggs full of candy, money and tattoos. The Easter bunny came early for us and the kids found their newly emptied baskets full of more Easter treats! Their favorite thing was their "Webkins" which are apparently all the rage at their schools. It's all the kids talk about now. They are stuffed animals that you can register online in "Webkin world". In this virtual world the kids can feed, cloth, bathe, and play with their webkin pet. Alex got a tree frog(he named it "froggy"), Lili got a golden retriever (named it "bow" like a hair bow), and David got a panda (named "Goli" sounds like the beginning of Goliath... no I don't know why). If you want to get them talking, just ask about their Webkins pet!

On Sunday, we dyed hard boiled eggs at Grandma and Grandpa Syphers house, had an egg hunt thanks to Grandpa and one million plastic eggs and penny's, and I made the silliest looking lamb cake ever! Of course we also talked about the true meaning of Easter. Grandma gave us a wonderful FHE with symbolic things and scriptures, inside 12 Easter eggs. The kids loved it, despite David having a hard time keeping reverent (what's new?). HAPPY EASTER!
