Scott had Friday off so we went to Topeka to see some friends. We had a great time catching up and the kids are now old enough to enjoy playing together. They had little chicks, so the kids got to pet them.
Luke wasn't sure he wanted to touch it at first, but he warmed up pretty quickly.
Then after church on we headed back up to Topeka for the family Easter gathering. Brooke had her first egg hunt. It didn't take her long to figure out to pick up the eggs and put them in her basket.
Luke was a pro this year.
This is Addison's 2nd basket full. They hid so many eggs the kids had to get another basket to fill!
Brooke sat here for quite awhile opening the eggs and examining the candy. Good thing she doesn't know that you eat the candy yet.
Awww. Doesn't my grandma look so good!
Something really neat happened after this picture. Luke opened up all his eggs and then went around to all the big people and offered them a piece of each kind of his candy. Some people didn't want any, but he insisted, saying, "Ok, then you can just save it for later." He got rid of a lot of his candy. Addy went around and did the same thing, but she is normally pretty generous. Luke is our I want everything I'm not going to share anything kid, so this was NOT normal for him. I asked him why he gave away so much of his candy and he said, " I want to go to heaven." We'll see if this pattern keeps up, but we were so thankful for this opportunity to encourage him.
