Easter Weekend!

Easter was so much fun this year! Friday we gave in and let Carson have his Easter basket early because he was so excited about it. His little basket contained; silly putty, candy, sidewalk chalk and the movie Frozen. He was most excited about Frozen and of course immediately wanted to watch it.

Saturday we headed to the park for lunch with the family and an Easter egg hunt. The kids loved collecting all the eggs and Keith even found the egg hidden for adults with money in it. Carson sure gobbled up a lot of his candy before I could regulate but it's Easter right? He had fun playing with his cousins and enjoying the beautiful weather. Afterwards I went with my sister-in-law and brother to hit up some sales on kids clothes. I scored some pretty sweet deals and was happy with how much I got for how little I spent. Later that evening Keith and I went on a date to the West Side Drive-In. This place has been featured on the Food Network show Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives. I love the old time drive-in atmosphere complete with 1950s-60s music and cars. The chef who owns it is apparently a pretty well known chef who has won numerous awards for his food presentations and recipes. We ordered a yummy Philly Cheesesteak and fries. We decided that next time we come back we'll have to order the prime rib meal and the potato ice cream. Afterwards we walked downtown a bit and enjoyed the evening.

Sunday we enjoyed a beautiful day and wonderful Church meetings. It was nice to think about the real meaning of Easter and our Savior who sacrificed all for us. Afterwards we headed over to my Uncle M's and Aunt J's for a delicious dinner with the family. Afterwards we had to take a nice walk since it was so beautiful out and since we ate so much.

The only thing we didn't do was dye eggs, things got so hectic and it just never got done. Oh well, next year I guess.
