Easter

 

I would definitely call this Easter the best one ever!  It's amazing how much more fun everything is with Nathan around.  And I apologize in advance for the few and poor quality of pictures I took this year.  Nathan was a little hyped up and refused to take a nap.  And no nap means he was not in the mood for the camera.

 

Because we are staying at my parent's house my mom got all the Easter eggs out the night before and had them ready for when Nathan woke up. He loved the eggs! We wanted to wait to do an egg hunt until Chloe and Brax came over so Nathan just got to play with them all day.

We didn't do Easter baskets last year because Nathan was too little so we went all out this year.  We got Nathan some cars, Monsters Inc. figurines, a basketball, bubbles, and an Easter outfit.  I wrapped everything except for the cars and figurines and Nathan found them at about 10 in the morning.  He would go down and sneak one car out at a time, play for a while, and then sneak down and get another.  It was hilarious.

Once Brax and Chloe came over we started the egg hunt.  Nathan actually did really good!  He would follow Chloe around putting a few eggs in his basket, then taking them out one by one, and then putting them back.  Chloe noticed that he didn't have many eggs and so she would put two eggs in her basket and one in Nathan's.  He noticed this a few minutes in and got confused and started putting his eggs in her basket!

 

 

Brax did not need any assistance this year

and did such a great job!

 

 

We then headed over to the Kasteler's for Easter dinner with his parents, Brittany and Bryce, and Christian.  Shayne made a ham, two kind of potatoes, jello, and of course rolls.  Nathan was falling apart at this time and ate the cool whip off his jello and nothing else.  But he sure enjoyed his cool whip!

 

We then headed to the backyard and stayed out for almost two hours!  It was a perfect spring night and it was so fun to watch Nathan and Luke playing in the backyard.  Nathan crashed pretty hard once we finally got him to bed but I think he had a good day too!
