Easter

We've had a fun couple of weeks--nothing too exciting, but just general merriment.  For "Easter" which we'll call Palm Sunday, we went to the Broadmoor for brunch.  We went on Palm Sunday because there were no reservations for Easter (we waited a bit too long with our scheduling).  Ashley's Mom was in town babysitting Teddy and Charlie, so we had quite the group.  Me, Ashley, Bode, Grammy, Nana, Teddy, and Charlie.  We had a great time, but we didn't really get a good group photo.  Here are some of people eating--not the greatest of pictures, but this is the best we got.  Evidently Bode knew a picture was being taken.
The highlight of the meal had to have been the ice cream bar.  The boys all made two trips.
Yesterday, Bode and I colored 30 eggs.  I didn't get any pictures, and that's probably a good thing because at one point, Bode spilt one of the dye-bins.  That wouldn't have been the best home movie :-)  Fortunately, we had adequate newspaper down, so the effects were minimized.  This morning, we woke up and the Easter Bunny had come and hidden all the eggs.  Before heading out for the hunt, Mommy and Bode stopped for a picture.  We couldn't get the dogs to stand still, so you don't get a good shot of them.
The bunny hid some real well, while others were out in the open.  Here's an "action" sequence.
We've (I've) eaten too much chocolate today, so we're (I'm) packing running clothes for tomorrow's workout.  Less than a month left of kindergarten for Bode--hard to believe he'll be a first-grader in a few months.  USAFA's classes end in a few weeks as well.  I'll have some down time, but then I'm also teaching summer school.  Still, summer is such a nice time.  Bummer that Ashley's job is season-less ;-) Pleasant week to all.
