He is Risen!

Happy Easter everyone! I thought I'd do a little extra in this space today because I had some pics I wanted to share of Zac dyeing eggs for the first time and of getting his Easter basket this morning. I'm also sharing a video within this space.  So, less text and more pics today.  :)  First up, we need to see how we dressed Zac to protect him from becoming blue, yellow or red himself.
Now that we had him ready, it was time to begin working on the eggs.  Let's see what that process looked like:

So here is the end result from that process:

Not too bad for a first effort, we think.  I think we probably were great at this 30 years ago...well, 21 for Katy.  :)  OK, so then this morning we had Zac's basket ready and we hid six plastic eggs around the house, filled with candy for him to search for as well.  One egg we placed in his shoe, and surprisingly, that's the one he saw even before his Easter basket, walking right past it.  :)

So there you have it.  We're not super elaborate because, well, he's three.  How much chocolate could one little guy need?  :)  What he's holding there is his first battery-powered toothbrush, Cars edition.  Very excited!  So Happy Easter everyone!

A Few Easter Pics

Well this is Easter number two for Zac and this year we got him a little basket full of some goodies. These pics are of him checking out his new things and I should note he has become especially pleased with the little stuffed chicken in a half egg shell we bought him. Note also he has a firm grip on his pink pig, which he received his first Sunday at our church down here. He loves that thing and it's like his security blanket, but in pig form.

Another new item today is a video that should be showing on the right, or again as always you can click on the Family Videos link below that to catch it. What we have noticed is that Zac definitely favors his left hand and his favorite color at the moment appears to be red. When we placed 3 Pez candies in front of him Sunday, he initially went for the one on the left, but then quickly grabbed the red one. Not the pink one, mind you, but the red one. We tried to capture this on video and he does go for the red one eventually on the first try, but aims for the left one on the second try.

So, we may have a crazy southpaw son, but at least his favorite color is right. Go Big Red!
