Flowers, flowers, everywhere! It was a weekend full of enjoying spring and our lovely friends. We held fast to tradition and headed to Ingrid and Brent’s neighborhood where we partook in the Easter day parade and egg hunt before heading back to their house for an afternoon of games and shenanigans. It was, as expected, a blast. Two out of three of the boys ended up leaving in tears (Emil fell and scraped his leg up on the way out after peeing his pants and Oliver punched Milo in the nose after a scuffle), which is a good sign that we’ve probably overstayed our welcome. Good times for the Knights.
Emil was much more bashful around the Easter bunny this time around and almost missed him completely before Milo took him by the hand and ran with him at the last minute, encouraging Emil to get a quick hug. Such a sweet big brother he has! The weather was warm and sunny and the boys cleaned up on candy, which they devoured (and which probably contributed to all the crying). 
We were also so pleased to meet and enjoy some new friends, who have four lovely children with whom the boys played so nicely. It’s always wonderful to find good people just around the corner and we hope to see them again soon. 
Thanks, Ingrid and Brent, for putting up with our crazy antics for one more year. We love you guys!
What a sweet neighborhood you guys live in! It’s so awesome how you can be so outdoors and involved in your community there.
I’m with Emil – people in bunny costumes freak me out. One came to Audrey’s preschool and it had really lifelike eyes, and I just wanted to stab it. Which is so unlike me. I’m not violent at all. But I felt this deep, caveman urge to just stab it because it felt like a threat. So I totally get the kid fear of the Easter Bunny. 🙂
