Hooray for Easter!

Easter was full of new surprises this year and the start of new beginnings for our family. We found out a few weeks before Easter that we were expecting another Shelton baby! We are beyond excited to be expanding our family :-).

Greyson was especially interested in the story behind the holiday, and it was fun to hear his version of the Easter story. He informed me that "Jesus wakes up and comes out of a rock." I guess that's one way to put it :-). We celebrated Easter a few times it seems. Hannah went to an Easter playdate at our friend, Colin's house, while Greyson had his big Easter egg hunt at school. She had fun with all of the kids looking for eggs and finding magic candy inside. I told her she could only have two pieces, but of course, she kept sneaking off and opening TONS of candy to eat. Gotta love that girl!
Easter morning, James and I surprised the kids with Easter baskets of goodies. They were beyond thrilled, and they think the Easter Bunny is just as cool if not cooler than Santa. We had a hunt in the back yard in our jammies before heading over for the big festivities at Grandma's and Grandpa's.
The kids all had such a great time at Grandma & Grandpa's house. They hunted for eggs, played like crazy, and rode in the cars out in the green belt. Grandma's house is just the coolest as far as the kids are concerned.
