Easter Bunny

We weren't really planning on doing anything for Easter this year, but I decided to play Easter Bunny anyways.   There are few magical holidays for a kid growing up, and there is just something exciting about having the Easter Bunny come and leave you treats.  So I got a basket, filled it with green fake grass, and got Tristan a couple little things.

Easter morning, I told him there was something waiting for him in the living room, so he ran out there and immediately went for the basket.  It was pretty cute, and he's been playing with his new little sparkle wand and Iron Man truck since.  Next year hopefully he'll be a little more aware, and it will be more exciting for him.  I fully plan on being a Leprechaun and Santa Claus as well.

After we got home from church, my parents came by to visit.  And yeay that my mommy is finally down here for good!  Anyhoo, haha, as soon as they walked in the door, Tristan ran to grab his shoes.  Whenever my dad comes to visit, Tristan thinks that means "take me for a walk!", which of course they were more than happy to indulge him with.  We ended up walked to two parks close by, both with playgrounds that he was up and down like a little squirrel.  It's nice that he is more sure footed now and can enjoy things like ladders and slides.  He's still afraid of the swings though, haha.  Oh well, I don't know if he's going to grow out of that one any time soon.  We also ended up bring Korra along, and she had a grand ol time when we let her off her leash to run around the playground as well.  It was a good  thing it was Sunday and there was no one around so we could do that.

My parents weren't able to stay for too much longer after we walked back home because they were having dinner with my brother up north.  But I'm glad they came to visit, Tristan loved walking them around and hurling himself to them down the slides.  Then, we all took a much needed nap!

Easter dinner was a little nontraditional, and that was Nick's idea.  We had spaghetti and meatballs with sweet potatoes.  Haha, I know sounds interesting, but!  I am a pretty darn good cook, so I made some tasty turkey meatballs.  You know it tastes good when Tristan will eat it. And that was our happy Easter!  Hope you all had a fabulous Easter too!
