Easter Weekend 2016

Our Easter holiday lasted two days. On Saturday morning the girls and I did an egg hunt with friends from Horizon. Alyssa, Makaio, Genevie & Gabriel were there. The park divided the kids by age. This was the best egg hunt I have ever been to. Every child left with 50+ eggs. There was certainly no shortage. There were also egg dying, face paint, jumbo bikes and tons of other things. We had a wonderful time with our school friends. Later that day we went to the botanic gardens for the Easter festival. The girls were all dressed up and excited to celebrate with Emily & Julia. They had a petting zoo, face paint, tons of crafts, plants to pot and then the bunny parade. After the event at the botanic gardens we went out to eat with the Partello's. It was a wonderful day. I am glad we have now been in San Diego long enough to have traditions. Hopefully we will go back again next year for our third year with our first California friends.

On Easter morning the girls woke up and ran downstairs for their egg hunt. They both had so much fun and even shared nicely. I was able to film the entire thing to capture their cute responses to the eggs. After the egg hunt we went to church which again was outside at the Mesa College stadium. The girls sat very well through the service. We were more prepared this year and had blankets to keep comfy and things to entertain the girls when they lost interest in the service. They both really enjoyed the music. After the service we ran down to the field and participated in the egg hunt. The church also handed out their series of children books. They are a nice addition to our collection. It was a wonderful weekend.
