Easter, 2010

Our 2010 Easter was extremely busy. It started on Saturday. Beth and I took the kids (and Ang's littles, Kate & Laney) to an Easter egg hunt at our Awanas church. The kids had 25 eggs a piece before I could even park the car! Then, we headed to Ang's house where the littles swam while Emmy took a nap.

Sunday morning, we woke up not so bright and early to attend the 7:30am sunrise service. Beth came along, which was nice. In the middle of the worship music, Sarah decided to shift to my sciatic nerve which caused some severe pain to shoot up from my leg, through my back, and all the way into the base of my head. Off and on, all day, I battled with that irritation. After church, I went home and took a nice, two hour nap. While I was drooling on my pillow, Beth and the kids dyed eggs (Thanks, Boppy)!

After my nap, we loaded up the mini, and headed to Grammy's church for yet another Easter egg hunt and some rather tasty snacks. We've done this for the last several years. Then, we went back to Grammy's for some "Easter egg cake" -- Publix butter cream and pregnant Mommy go very well together, by the way -- and the kids played for a little bit. I wanted to do the egg decorating there at Grammy's, but with the pain I was going through, all I wanted to do was go home. We came back to the house to finish decorating eggs, I crashed on the couch, for the most part, and then Joey came over for dinner.

After Joey and Beth left, Grammy, Rusty, and I played Outburst to end the extremely busy weekend! I don't know that I've ever looked forward to bed than I did this weekend!
