Busy Easter Weekend.

We had a pretty eventful and busy Easter weekend. On Saturday we woke up early to take Jadon (and the girls) to a sports park near by for their annual Easter Egg Hunt. One word to describe it: chaos. Probably thousands of people (majority of them were kids) gathered on the fields separated by age groups. There were areas of the field that were filled with plastic easter eggs and candy, spralled across the grass. It was were taped off and At exactly 9:30 am all hell broke lose. Jadon was a little slow to grasp the concept of grabbing the eggs so I had to help him. I carried him about 20 feet in from our start point (to separate us from the crowd) and started to grab all that I could for Jadon. In two minutes, it was all over. It happened all so fast that Fiona couldn't get that many camera shots off. So what ended up happening was we reinacted the hunt. We took a few eggs out of Jadon's basket and placed it on the grass so he can grab them and we can get our shots. So that was an interesting experience to sat the least.

On Sunday, the family woke up early and went to church for a special Easter Sunday sermon. This is the first time that the girls have gone to church (and the first for Fiona this year). Our service was held at the Anaheim Convention Center this year. Service time started at 9:15 am, we started to get ready shortly after 7:00am. So just getting ready was a tiring experience. We dropped Jadon off at his Sunday school class and took the girls with us into the stadium. They behaved decently throughout service. So all in all the trip was marginally successful.

I'd take my kids to church on Easter too, but Piper and JS don't like riding in the car.
