Easter 2009...the Blu's are back!

We enjoyed a great Easter weekend! Shawn's parents were in town for 10 days (and purchased a full time home in AZ!) and unfortunately had to leave on Easter morning. We celebrated Easter a day early with our traditional feast on Saturday night. Sunday morning the real festivities began. I couldn't believe how into the egg hunt Cole was. Last year he was too young, so this year was a treat for mom and dad to watch him go after the eggs. Each time he saw another one he would gasp in excitement, pick it up and put it in his basket. On more than one occassion his eggs fell out of his basket as he bent down to pick up another egg. It worked out okay as I think he thought they were new eggs each time he picked them up! While the egg hunting was exciting, so was busting into them and eating all the jelly beans and M&M's. I finally had to hide the egg basket from both Cole and Daddy! I bought all kinds of fun toys to put in Cole's eggs, thinking he's a little young for too much candy. Unfortunately none of the cars, toys, etc. fit in the eggs. Better planning on the part of the Easter Bunny will be needed for 2010!
Here is Cole looking super cool for his Easter morning workout...notice he didn't break much of a sweat!
We did our final walk through of the house yesterday and are supposed to have our keys tomorrow. Stay tuned for pictures of the new house...we plan to move in late-May.

That is freaking hilarious about the eggs falling out of the basket and thinking they were new ones... only a Blau Blau!!!

So excited about the new house, can't wait to come and organize your big, beautiful kitchen. Will Shawn drink with me?
