On Saturday we headed to a local church with some friends and kids for an Easter egg hunt and other activities. Xander really enjoyed just hitting the eggs together.
Xander had even more fun with the eggs at home. He would shake them and then he got one open. He was so excited and I think surprised to find something inside. Then he wanted to take them all apart. Luckily he has no concept of candy yet, so he just played with candy inside.
On Sunday morning we attended the first service of our church's Easter program. Then headed to Jason's parents church for their Easter program. Jason's dad was the narrator. When Xander noticed his grandpa he pointed at him with both hands, stood up, and started "talking".
Then we went out to lunch at Outback (very Eastery I know) with Jason's mom, dad, and brother Eric. Xander got a very large stuffed dog and a "secular" (as Jason's dad says) board book that plays "Here Comes Peter Cottontail. So, if Xander doesn't turn out in the end we can all blame his "secular" Easter book. :)
That evening we headed to my Aunt Barbie's house for the Hunter side of family Easter dinner. We had an Easter hunt with all the great-grand children (9 kids total). Xander's eggs were all orange. My parents got him an Easter basket with play doh (I know :)) and a board book. He loved them both. He also liked hitting the table with spoon with my Nana (a favorite activity) and now semi-traditional holiday picture with his (2nd) cousin Cooper.

Busy day for you guys! Looks like fun. What size shoe is Xander wearing? His foot looks so big in the picture with the Easter bunny. Karis finally likes her shoes. I never put them on her so she wasn't used to them. Now they don't trip her when she's walking so she's okay with wearing them =)
What an awesome Easter! Xander is such a little doll! I love his hair!!
