Here comes Peter Cotton-Tail (2)

I'm so far behind that I don't think I'll ever catch up....to the Easter Bunny!!! We had a fun Easter this year. Lance has been working so much that we weren't sure if he would be able to celebrate with us, but he had a "bye" on Sunday and was able to spend the day with us. In the morning, before we went to check out the loot from the EB, I tried to remind the kids about the real meaning of Easter. When I brought up the subject Allie said "Yeah, yeah, yeah, we know, Jesus was resurrected. Can we go find Easter Eggs now?" In tender moments like those I realize what a great job we are doing as parents. Next year, the EB will be visiting us on Saturday instead of Sunday. The kids looked cute in their Easter finery. We drove to Carlsbad to go to church with the Bakers and have a delicious dinner after. Jamie had planned a mini-fireside after dinner where we did talk about the true meaning of Easter, while the kids ate MORE candy.
