My Mom and Dad and brother Joel came for Easter and it was a great time. Chase and Amanda joined us too of course, and we had a very non-traditional meal of grilled chicken salad with fresh berries and candied pecans. I would say more about this, but that would be akward because I made it. (This blogging thing is still new for me).
Unfortunately the boys and I didn't get to go to church because Jack woke up the night before with a fever, crying that his lips were "stiff." I understood this to mean "chapped."
The next day, I tried to encourage the boys that we could still celebrate the resurrection even though we had to stay home. "It's disappointing boys, but we can still" -then Jack finished my sentence - "have an easter egg hunt." Yep, well, that too.
Looking back, I think I might have gone a little overboard on the Easter baskets. I say this, for one reason, because Luke thought they were from Santa. Also because that's the night Rich got worried about where I was and found me in Walmart at 12:30 in the morning. I felt pretty bad about him having to drive around when he should have been working on his Easter sermon... but let's go ahead and blame it on the steroids I was taking for a foot injury (I couldn't sleep, so it seemed like a reasonable thing to do).
And if searching for your wife is not enough of a distraction, Rich got to do his message prep with pinkeye. Pretty cool, huh?

three cheers for another post on tiffany's blog! yay!
wow, those are some very special glasses rich has on...
i'm sure the boys loved their easter baskets - they look fantastic! i want one! :)
That has got to be the funniest thing I've read in awhile. From a midnight run to Wal-Mart in the middle of the night to pink eye, to Easter baskets that are so rockin' Jack thought SANTA brought them ... that's an Easter (AND a blog entry) I won't soon forget reading about!
someday your boys will certainly enjoy reading your blog. Will it last that long? mom
