Easter

I went to Nico's school on Friday for their Easter egg hunt. The Easter bunny also came for a visit and Nico got a picture taken with him. Nico had fun and after that was over he got to come home with me instead of riding the bus.

Saturday we went to the Boise Farmer's Market for the very first time this year! We found a new vendor that sells gluten and corn free bread and baked goods. Nico tried their cinnamon bread. We will be going back this Saturday to BUY some! I thought the cinnamon bread would make some good toast for breakfasts. Went to Old Park that afternoon and Nico discovered swinging on his tummy.

Him and a girl named Lily hit it off at the park and they were both swinging on their tummies.

Sunday was church and then Easter at the cabin. We saw family we hadn't seen in a while, an Aunt and  Uncle of mine that had never met Nico before! And cousins I hadn't seen in a while. It was a lot of fun. Easter egg hunt reminded me of the ones we used to have at my Great Grandma French's farm. The adults would hide the eggs and then the kids would be let loose (the younger ones first). So Nico got to search for eggs one minute before the next batch of kids were released. He was allowed to get 22 eggs. Since he couldn't have the candy in them, the other kids were kind enough to trade eggs with him so that he just ended up with toys. Lots of stamps, lots of finger puppets, light up rings, colorful rubber bands. My brother Jonny climbed up the side of the cabin and planted one of the easter eggs in a bird's nest perched on the highest beam on the side of the cabin. When the kids were let loose to find the eggs, one of my cousins climbed up there to retrieve it.

Alanna took pictures of the event and I'll post them when I get copies!

Monday we went to see Allicia and kids in the morning. Then in the afternoon we met Grandma Salisbury at the mall for an adventure! I got a pair of pants and shirt and some See's candy (Thanks Mom!) Haven't had See's candy in about 3 years at least! Rocky Road used to be my favorite.

Tuesday I had another essential oils class for pregnancy and babies. Nico and Guy got the tire fixed, went to the library, and then to the bookstore to play with the train. It was a fun night for all. 

Please pray that Guy will be favored when he interviews for the engineering position in the next few weeks. We are ready for him to move to days!

Today Nico was watching a muppet show on Netflix called The Mighty Jungle. Kids tell parts of the story and the muppets act them out. One part had this meerkat holding his baby sister. So Nico started talking about his baby sister and went to get his doll. I tucked her in next to Nico and he gladly stayed there with his arm around her until he was done watching his show.

That's all for this week! Stay tuned for Easter pictures in the coming weeks!
