Looks can be deceiving...

Sunday was Easter. It was wonderful and despite the weather report that it was going to be cool it turned out to be a beautiful day. We woke up (Braxton woke us up) about 7:15 and we went into the dining room to see what the Easter Bunny had left. Braxton had a great basket. It had some cars in it, a Tupperware cake taker (just like Grandaddy's), a movie and SOME MARKERS!! Braxton has really gotten into crayons and markers and they are normally the first thing he goes searching for regardless of where he is. Crayola has this wonderful line called Crayola Wonder. The markers only work on the specific paper. So no more marking on skin, carpet or clothes. You can look at the picture and see Braxton's face when he saw his markers.

After church, which we didn't get to attend because we had nursery downstairs, we went to Grandaddy's house where the Easter Bunny had stopped as well. Another great basket full of clothes, toys, a really cool firetruck, and chocolate. All the family came over about 3 o'clock. We had a wonderful dinner and enjoyed catching up with each other. Grandmama seemed to be having a good day. This news in itself seemed to brighten everyone's day! After we ate, we went outside to walk around the garden and for an egg hunt. Braxton's egg hunts consist of tossing the eggs on the grass and watching him pick them up. He was very entertained and was incredibly proud of himself for every egg he found. Half-way through the egg hunt Braxton looked at Grandaddy's basket and noticed that HE had all the eggs while he himself only had about 3. So he switched baskets. So although it looks like Braxton has found a lot of eggs it's really the basket that we were using to "hide" the eggs.

Smart "egg", right?
