easter sunday

Erik completely surprised me Sunday on our way home from our Easter festivities. I had been begging him all week to go to the tulip festival with me, which I know is something he finds little joy in. My chances were slim on getting him to go. We had passed our exit for home and I didn't even realize it. A little while later I turned to him and said, "wait...are we?!" and we sure were! It's funny because I was actually busy thinking about how nice a nap actually sounded and negotiated with myself that maybe I didn't need to see the tulips this year. So, I decided not to bring them up.  Well I didn't get my Sunday nap, but I'm happy Erik decided to go with me. As we were leaving, he asked sarcastically, "so was it so much better with me being here?" My response was, "you make everything better when you're there." Now, if only I could delete everyone else who was taking up the field. 

Easter coma

Easter felt a whole lot more like Thanksgiving this year, instead of Easter. It was spent sitting in a chair, with my arm digging into numerous dips as my only movement, and watching endless games of corn hole. Considering I was with the Freeman's and that is their "thing" as I have come to realize. It is at every single gathering I attend with them (regarding corn hole, although endless dips and chips are always present too). I didn't think things through I as indulged in so many appetizers and was full before the Easter meal. I didn't let my stomach hold me back though and I made it through. I even managed to eat a sliver of carrot cake for dessert. I hope your Easter landed you in a food coma for the rest of the night, as mine did!

Also, why do we only have Easter egg hunts for children? I have missed them along with baskets filled with goodies.  Definitely a part of growing up I am struggling with, as everyone thinks I'm joking every year when I ask if there will be an Easter egg hunt.  I'm not joking people. 

Easter

I don't really remember the last time I celebrated Easter, so to celebrate with the Freeman's was quite the treat this year.  I was pretty excited to hear there would be an Easter egg hunt which was set up for Hannah, but I made it be for me as well. I mostly enjoyed all the food but most of the afternoon was spent playing corn hole which I discovered I'm not very good at. Oh, and Hannah thinks she's a bunny...
