Easter Weekend

I can't get these in chronological order easily, so please bear with me.

Sunday, Matt finds some eggs (drool for free!)
Katelyn found some too. Easter Bunny said she had to find pink, purple and chicken eggs. She stuck to the plan very well.
And she eventually found the basket of goodies, which inclued toothbrushes for some reason. Guess Easter Bunny knows about the impact of all that sugar on teeth.
We all had Friday off, so we had a long weekend. It was a busy long weekend. Our friends were in from PA and we went to our old haunt for lunch with all the kids. This is a picture of Matt's hand after some egg coloring. (The Hulk emerges....)
He was suffering this weekend, so this is happy face, that wasn't really happy. We went to Urgent Care Sunday...the Easter Bunny also brought him a double ear infection.
Katelyn had a good time coloring eggs and did a great job.
I even let Matt try a couple.


After the lunch at Otie's Friday, Dad started to put together the swingset.

Katelyn is standing behing him on a beam. She couldn't wait.

Matt keeps the bolt and screw inventory current. (He would NOT let go of the paci. Another tip he wasn't feeling well.)
Final product and the first trip down the slide (on Tuesday).

She loves the swings and I'm working to get Matt a toddler swing so he can join in too.
I have to add that the box said 'made and play in one day!' Maybe days at that manufacturer last 72 hours or there was some small print about 4 carpenters to help. Chris did a great job with it facing multiple trials. Katelyn may never truly appreciate it, but this was an act of love if I've ever seen one.

What a great swingset! They're going to get some good use out of that! Sorry you had to spend Easter morning in Urgent Care! Still looks like you managed to have a great weekend though!
