Easter 2012

Happy Easter! We had a great Easter here at the Leptuch house. We hosted again this year. It is just easier to host things around here because of naps.

We had a late night last night because we were at Easter mass watching Mike get confirmed (more to come on that), so we all slept in until 6am. Ava woke up a little cranky, but I told her that the Easter bunny came and left her an Easter basket and she cheered right up and went to find her Easter basket. She loved all the jelly beans. The rest she really didn't care about. So she enjoyed some jelly beans and a Reese peanut butter candy for breakfast.

In her left hand is chocolate and in her right hand is a jelly bean. Breakfast of champions.

I remember eating candy for breakfast on holiday mornings, so I will let my kids do the same. It is their one free pass of all day candy too!!

Noah woke up shortly after Ava and enjoyed his Easter basket as well.

Everyone came over at 11am for lunch. We had a nice ham lunch with all the yummy sides. 

We had a house full of people, 21 people to be exact. Mike's mom came from LA since Mike was confirmed in the catholic church Saturday night.  My grandparents were here along with my 2nd cousin Judy and my cousin Duena and her boyfriend, Gary. All the Aunties and Uncles were here except Auntie Susan because she had to work, but Uncle Troy made it over.

All the aunties and uncles spoiled the kids with Easter baskets. 

There was not a shortage of Easter baskets around here.

After dinner we had an Easter egg hunt in the back yard. More sugar!

Here are some pictures from our day.

The cousins.

It was a great Easter. Another great one for the books. I was surprised at how much Noah wanted to be involved. Ava loved finding the eggs and playing with all her new toys and eating all her jelly beans. I think they are both gonna be worn out tonight.
