Ressurection Weekend

What a fun, three-day weekend! The boys and I did a lot.

Thursday afternoon was filled with their parties at school.  I had to run home before joining them, so I was a little late. By the time I arrived, Cason and the four other toddlers in his class were doing this:



Clean-up was fun!

 After I got Cason cleaned up and re-dressed, we headed to Luke's class for his egg hunt. 



Luke, Cody, Paxton, and Vance

We had a game that evening and Lucas was on fire! I lost count of how many runs he had, and he had countless RBI's and got several people out! He almost had a triple out one inning, which was awesome! A double out is pretty cool, too though. We are so proud of him and all the boys on his team. They won 20-10.  A win is always good, but the most important and best part was they played as a team, and learned while having fun!



Our rainbow cakes in a jar were plenty yummy! I took a picture with my phone, but I can't get it to upload. I did post a pic on facebook, so if you are "friends" with me, then you saw them there.


We had plans to dye eggs with friends, but they got sick, so we had to change our plans, but that was ok too.  Lucas, Cason and I colored eggs at home on Saturday.  Lucas is a little on the artsy side (gets that from me) so he really got into it.  Cason, on the other hand, hasn't quite discovered his artistic abilities just yet.  He did paint the eggs and did well with that. He also squished one and launched one across the room which resulted in a nice crackle effect on the paint. Ha! He also decided that the paint looked yummy, so he bit the sponge roller.

After we colored eggs, Papaw and Nana came over !  They had been in Ft. Worth visiting Nannie for a few days so the boys were really excited to see them. (We usually see them at least 2-3 times per week).  And, they brought goodies! They got the boys some really nice clothes, and of course an Easter basket each. 

Lucas asked to go home with them, so we went ahead and gave the boys their baskets from us also.  They were so excited. I made them a basket with a Scentsy buddy and lots of goodies. I made similar baskets for my Scenstsy customers who purchased Buddies for their kids. Lucas kept asking, "Why don't me and Cason get one too?" That made the surprise that much better when he saw that he did get one afterall!

Lucas went home with Papaw and Nana for the evening.  The next morning we had a special Easter lesson during Children's Church. More on that later !  My boys looked SO handsome in their "preacher suits", as Lucas calls them:



If Cason looks a little concerned here, it is because someone dressed
up as the Easter bunny after church and this event  left him somewhat traumatized.
He did not care for the big hairy thing in the polk-a-dot vest.  He is still in recovery mode
in this picture, and keeping his eye on the "EB".

 I will work on a seperate post about our special CC lesson, and more pictures of our Easter celebration!
