Easter

The night before Easter as I was tucking Tommy into bed he asked me to catch the Easter Bunny for him. I told him I'd try but the Easter Bunny was very fast and has never be caught. In the morning Joseph and Nathan woke up at 6:00 ready to hunt for eggs and find a basket full of goodies. I just couldn't bring myself to get up and begin Easter at 6:00. I made them go find something to do for the next hour. Bryan tried to wake up Tommy who just wanted to sleep until Bryan mentioned the bunny. Then he sprung up and asked if i caught the Easter Bunny. When I told him I wasn't able too, he threw himself back on his bed (truly) upset. We were able to talk to him and explain to him that the Easter Bunny just couldn't be caught no matter how hard we tried. He got over it and the egg hunt was on.
We let Ava go first so she had a chance to get some eggs. Then Tommy got a head start before Nathan and Joseph cleaned up. It was so fun we had about 30 eggs (which I think is a lot, I don't know why I just do).
 Ava collecting eggs and putting them in her purse.
Daddy helping Ava with her eggs.
 Tommy found the "golden" egg.
 Joseph finding eggs (he found the most, of course)
 Tommy with his basket of eggs, running to get the last one.
Nathan holding his basket full of eggs.

The Easter Bunny left an egg basket full of candy, basketballs for Nathan & Tommy. An itunes card for Joseph, and a baby for Ava that eats and cries (it doesn't poop, thank goodness)
 Here is how the Easter Bunny left their basket and gifts.
 Tommy and Nathan digging through the basket looking at all the fun and yummy goodies.
