EASTER

This Easter was so much fun because Gavin really "got it."  To start off the season, we took him to the movie theater for the first time to see HOP.  He sat through the whole movie, including the credits.  He thought it was so funny because the Easter Bunny in the movie plays the drums and hops around.  After he saw the movie, he seemed to like the Easter bunny a little more, but still wanted nothing to do with visiting the bunny and taking a picture.  A couple weeks later, we were at Chick fil A and there was an Easter Bunny walking around and then he sat so the kids could go up and visit.  Gavin was all about him!!!  He went right up and hugged him, sat on his lap, kissed his cheek, and would not leave him alone.  We were completely shocked because he doesn't usually do stuff like that.  It was pretty exciting for all of us!

Here he is with the bunny that he couldn't get enough of.  Of course he had to love him that much when I didn't have my camera with me.  

He liked hunting for eggs and putting them in his basket.  He knew that all of the eggs had something good in it for him.  He got to go on three egg hunts this year!  On Saturday, we went with my family to an Easter Extravaganza that was right down the street at the high school.  Him and Taylor hunted for eggs and rode on the children's ferris wheel.  I was surprised once again when he got right on the ride without hesitation. 

We walked from our house

On Saturday night, Nate's family came over and we had a another egg hunt for him and Dylan.  Their grandma and grandpa hid a lot of eggs with good stuff inside.

M&Ms are his favorite so he was pretty happy about this egg!

On Sunday, we went to Palm Springs to see my family.  My Nana and aunt filled so many eggs with candy and goldfish and the kids had such a great time.  Gavin was taking the eggs and dumping the jelly beans because he only wanted the goldfish and crackers.

Before he went to bed on Saturday night, we told him he had to put out some carrots for the Easter Bunny.  He wanted to put them on the table in the back yard.  He checked them right when he woke up on Easter and this is what he found.

Hope everyone had a nice Easter!
