Easter Fun

I am definitely behind on this blog - I returned to work from maternity leave 3 days after Easter (4/23) and life has been a little busy to say the least. :)  I'll start playing catch up with our Easter weekend in Orange County.

We had a great Easter at my parents house, as usual.  We spent lots of time relaxing in the hottub, playing on the floor with Oliver, and just hanging out.  My Dad had shoulder surgery earlier that week, so he spent most of the time in his recliner healing and resting. :)

I took way too many pictures of course - between having a nice camera now and it being Oliver's first Easter - it's to be expected right?

Dying eggs the day before Easter
Ben got creative with the white crayon before dying this year

Ben also took the time to make 2-toned eggs this time - so fun to see him growing up!
