Easter Weekend

We started out our Easter weekend by going to the Langstraat's house on Friday night to dye easter eggs. Nick and I had a great time coloring eggs and I was proud of my husband for joining in and participating in another one of the silly holiday traditions that I love....


Friday, during the day, I got the opportunity to hang with Erin and Brianna while Erin made Nick's Easter present. For those of you who don't know Nick LOVES the weight watcher's hungry monster mascot. He is even the wallpaper on our laptop. After looking all over the internet and realizing that you couldn't buy him I asked Erin if she could make one. She said yes, she's so fantastic! Below is a picture of him in case you aren't familiar with the commercials.



On Sunday morning Nick and I gave each other our Easter baskets. Nick was so excited and surprised that the hungry monster was so large. Nick got me Meet the Robinson's...it's my favorite movie. After we went through our Easter baskets we watched my new movie while Nick hung out with Hungry. I think that Erin did a really great job and I got to tell you that Hungry has already made himself at home...

After church we went down to the Esslinger's house for an egg hunt and dinner. The kids had a great time hunting for eggs and dinner was great. Unfortunately, we didn't stay long enough to try out Megan's chocolate pie so I'm going to have to try and convince her to make it again so that we can try it out.
