Happy Easter from Us to You!



We hope you had a very 

Happy Easter!


Here is some of what we were up to on this glorious Sunday: 

Woke up way too early. 
Had a healthy breakfast. 
(Oatmeal and fruit.)
Read a book about the life of Christ
Went outside to find Easter baskets. 
(One small Lego set, one Lindt chocolate bunny, one Lindt chocolate carrot.)
Played Lego. 


Ate (part of) the chocolate bunny
Played more Lego. 
Had a healthy snack. 
(Apples and natural peanut butter.)
Biked 30 minutes to church. 



Celebrated Easter at church. 


Biked back home. 
Went off-road and hit some jumps
(Well, the boys did, I was in a skirt and have no skills.) 
Possibly my favorite part of the day. 


Ate a very late lunch. 
(Salads for Max, Karl, and I. Sandwich for Noah.)
Prepared 20 eggs for our little Easter egg hunt
(Half had a few coins, half had 2 jelly beans each.)
Let the kids lose. 



 




It wasn't much but they were happy




Played (even) more Lego. 
Ate dinner. Not your typical Easter dinner. 
(Roasted broccoli, quinoa, chick peas and tomatoes in ginger sauce.)

So far so good. 
Not as fun as spending Easter with family but we had a great day!

Then we tried to have family night and that's when 
(as usual) 
things (especially Max) started to fall apart. 
So we cut it short. 
Maybe too much sugar although we tried hard
to keep a healthy balance?
Not the best ending to Easter Sunday 
but we do know that 

He is Risen! 



PS: Can you tell that I am slightly obsessed with how handsome Max looks in this white shirt and blue sweater with his wild blond hair that's finally growing out again after Noah cut it off back in September? Love that crazy kid!
