Hoppy Easter!

Last night, we dyed Easter eggs (and made a huge mess, but that's half the fun, right??) Pop-Pop, Justin, and Jack had a blast making very colorful creations for the Easter bunny to hide. (Caroline is still a little too young, and SuSu had fun playing crawl chase with her and tickling her belly enough so that she didn't mind.) 

Look at all those pretty colors.

Some of the finished product. We tried to explain that "all the colors mixed together"
made brown, but Jack didn't believe us...

He was really good at gently putting them in this year. Much better than
the throwing he did last year.

So excited!

Daddy and his tongue diligently working on an egg.

Oh la la.

Missy Moo (drooly face)

So happy!

 Easter morning, the kids slept in (amazing) and woke up to big baskets and lots of eggs to find.

Caroline, it seems, wasn't quite awake yet...

But she quickly got into the swing of things.

Digging through the insides of all the surprise eggs. He was most excited about
"all the money the Easter bunny gove me!"

Jack's haul...that he was supposed to share...hmmm.

Jelly beans!

They were adorable. Holidays are SO fun with kids.

First taste of chocolate. Not so sure about it.

"Hey, brother, whatcha got there?"
"NOTHING! Back away!"

Jack and I went for a walk this morning in our beautiful California weather, and all the boys just headed out to see The Croods at the theatre ("NO GIRLS ALLOWED.") Looking forward to my cheat day (ha ha!) with great food, candy, and family!! Lots of love from our house to yours.

Edited to add:
I forgot I didn't post this yesterday. Cupertino had it's annual Big Bunny Run in the morning, so I ran the 5K (in a personal best time of 31:33! So proud of myself!) and Mom & Jack did the 2.5K walk. Afterwards, there was a kid's race by age group. Jack had a blast!

Starting line!

Pop-Pop cheering Jack on!

He has a slightly competitive streak. I love it.
