5 on Friday

1.  Happy Easter!   We started the weekend with an Easter Egg Hunt at Reiman Gardens with Grandma & Grandpa Greving and Megan, Liam & Alida.    The kiddos had a great time and were really cute together.   Then we headed back to Grandma and Grandpa's to play for a while.   I got a super cute picture of Grandpa with the three youngest kids on his lap and Ellie behind them.  All five were having a blast!




2. We celebrated Easter Sunday with Nick's side of the family.   The girls loved the Easter egg hunt outside (such beautiful weather) and Neve decided that cousin Hunter was "not a scary guy."




3. I started Easter Sunday with a workout.   Note to self: no one works out at 5AM on Easter Sunday.  It was great!   When I arrived home Ellie was awake and I asked her what we were celebrating... her response: "Jesus is alive again!"   Pretty close for a 5-year old and I love that she knows the real meaning of Easter (although she was awake so early because she wanted to hunt the eggs).




4. Saturday/Sunday night Ellie woke up around 2:45AM and was calling for us.  I went into her room and she is sitting up on her bed wide awake.  She informed me that she was done sleeping and ready to wake up.   I told her I wasn't ready to wake up and she needed to go back to sleep if she wanted to do any Easter egg hunts that day.  Seriously child--- 2:45AM!!!!  I think she would have stayed awake if I would have let her.




5. They started working on the park across the street from us!  They are tearing a good portion of it out and redoing it bigger and better.  We cannot wait for it to be done.
