Happy Easter

Happy Easter to everyone!!!

It has been a busy weekend getting ready for today. Yesterday morning, we dyed Easter eggs...Transformer style of course.

Then Javi had to build Trey and Talan's Easter present which is an adorable little club house we found at Costco. Our plan was for Javi to build it Saturday and have it in the backyard with the easter baskets when Trey woke up Easter morning. Javi had to go to Trey's first t-ball meeting of the season at 1:00 yesterday and I decided to take Trey to the movies (to keep him out of the house so Javi could build his clubhouse) with my neighbor Michelle and her son Drew. We saw Monsters VS. Aliens in 3D!

The movie was adorable...I think I liked it more than the kids did. It really cracks me up the adult humor they put in kids these kids movies that is way over their heads but all of the adults are laughing! I figured going to the movie would get us out of the house long enought to give Javi enough time to get the clubhouse built before we got home. But we were finished at the movies before Javi even got home from the t-ball meeting...then it started raining. So Javi and our neighbor J built it in our neighbor's garage and then brought it over on J's trailer and carried it into our backyard after Trey had fallen asleep. Then last night before we went to bed, Javi left a letter from the Easter Bunny on the floor in Trey's room by his door with a trail of eggs from his room leading to the back door. The letter said that the Easter Bunny had come to visit him and Talan and left them a surprise. Follow the path of eggs and they would lead him to a special treat! I set my alarm for 5am so I could take the boy's Easter baskets outside and put them in the little clubhouse. Trey woke up at 5:45 am...UGGHHH! He was so excited about all the eggs and the letter. He made us get out of bed right away to go see!



IT IS SO CUTE!!! It has a little basket ball hoop, a mailbox and a doorbell that really works on the front. A little BBQ grill and sink on another side...where you can run a little snack shop/concession stand. The back has 2 buckets that you can fill with sand (we have the sand and will fill it today) And the other side has a puppet show window (and it came with 2 hand puppets).

Then we came inside so they could open their Easter baskets...
Trey was so into his new Transformers that he could care less about his basket full of goodies and Talan thought the cellophane wrapping was the best thing ever!!

It is FREEZING outside today too so I hope it warms up so Trey can go outside and enjoy his new clubhouse! I am making a ham for Easter lunch/dinner. Javi is going to pick up his Nana so she can spend the day with us and our neighbors J and Michelle are coming over to eat with us too.
