This year Easter fell on the beginning of Spring Break. We had lots of plans for fun but woke up with strep and sick tummies as often happens for me when I finally get a break. I think my body knows I have to hold it together and then suddenly I get a day to sleep in and my immune system shuts down. Fortunately, we were still able to pull it together Saturday afternoon for some family fun! We dyed eggs in the backyard - Eli called them "balls" and tried to throw them into the dye, which made for a few cracks and spills, but at least he wasn't trying to throw them across the yard. That kid has an arm! - then we gathered ourselves up and headed over to the park by my school that has a great hill for some serious egg rolling. Unfortunately, the eggs did not roll as well as we had expected and by the time we all had red noses from the chilly wind and Eli had yet another massive blowout, we decided to count our adventure as complete. We rolled the eggs one last time and ended up with yokes bouncing down the sidewalk, which was pretty funny! All in all, it was a great time and Eli loved the new adventure!
