Easter, our way

We don't seem to have typical, traditional holidays, ever, and today was no different.

We got up, and the kids hunted for the eggs. Elliott was not all that interested, and mostly just played with the stuff from his basket. He really likes the magna-doodle.
He did help find a couple, but mostly he left it up to Ethan.
He likes looking at them, just not looking for them.
After egg hunting, it was time to open the baskets!
You can't get much more excited than that. :)
The boys and Jason played with the new toys, and we all got ready to leave for the 2nd annual Easter Egg Hunt and Brunch at the Hayashida's. We really do have awesome friends.
Just when we thought we found them all, Elliott finds one more.
Now we are home, just lounging. Jason is making tacos for dinner, and that should pretty much be the end of our day. Maybe it's not "traditional", but I really hope that when my kids are older they remember the holidays as a really fun time with family and friends. That seems more important to me than how we are dressed, or what we have to eat.

Hope you had a great Easter too.
