Winding up Easter weekend today with a clean-up around the house - the kids are thrilled.
We enjoyed a good weekend - here's the breakdown:
1. Friday was spent here with Nana, Mary and her kids. We spent the afternoon coloring eggs, hanging out in the sunshine. taggart loved the hunt for eggs where he was looking for all the orange eggs. Every kid gets a color to look for to avoid any confusion.
2. Saturday we hung around outside while Tony planted all his new trees and such. For dinner we headed to Pat and Henry's for Easter dinner. Willi, Brenda, Naomi and Anita came from Edmonton, David and Brittanie were here from Portland and of course everyone else - 32 in total. Fantastic food, another hunt for the kids, and a nice time visiting with family.
3. Sunday - nothing formal, just us. Tony planted more in the garden, he keeps surprising me as his love for gardening seems to grow and grow(no pun intended). We went for a walk in the trails, where the Easter Bunny seemed to know we were coming (wink) and the kids had a third and final hun. Ended up at the playground to burn off some energy before we headed home for pizza.
4. Tony headed back to work today while me and the kids enjoyed our last dayof the long weekend. He must still be feeling in weekend mode as well because he called me this morning to ask me on a date. Meeting him in Langley for a bit of shopping and dinner. Nana was kind of enough to say yes to watching the crew. Thanks, Nana.
Good weekend!!

Sounds like you had a great Easter, jam packed as it was. So Tony has a green thumb, does eh? A little closet passion of his? Well, I have about 15 houseplants and would have more if I had more windows. So tell him not to be ashamed, there's more of us than he realizes :) Thanks for the pics, always nice to see what's going on.
If only all weekends could be like that!!!
Our weekend was also a fun mix of family and relaxing - it was soooo hard to go back to work Tuesday morning!!!
