Easter Sunday

We had a wonderful Easter Sunday yesterday filled with lots of fun.  We woke up at 8am (yes, that is not a typo... Jackson actually slept in) and we showed him what the Easter bunny brought.  This year, the Easter bunny filled Jackson's basket with a Tonka garbage truck, sidewalk chalk, a CD, a light up bouncy ball and of course, some chocolate.

Jackson's favorite part was the garbage truck, which I could have guessed. He spent the first hour driving it around loving all the noise it made.

And since it was a holiday, I made Jackson a special breakfast.  Cinnamon rolls... his absolute favorite. :)

Later in the day, we headed over to BJ's parents house for a family potluck and Easter egg hunt.  It was a nice day so we were able to be outside!  We still didn't dye regular eggs this year (maybe next year) so plastic ones were used for the hunt.

And of course, we had to play ball while we were outside.  The picture below is Jackson hitting it out of BJ's hand but I started pitching to him and he actually hit the ball five times all by himself!!!!  One was even a line drive right back at me that I was lucky to catch. :)  I think he has his Dad's skills.

HAPPY EASTER everyone.  We hope you had a good one!
