Easter Bunny arrived!

On Easter Sunday we spent the day with my family. Since my Nan had her leg amputated over a year ago the only time she can visit my Mum's house is when we are down as Ryan is able to carry her up the steps at mum's house as her arthritis is so bad she just wouldn't have the strength to lift her body up while using one leg. So they came around for the day and enjoyed the exchange of Easter eggs, as per usual we all got too much chocolate! I did discuss with my sister about exchanging books for the kids instead of chocolate which was a better idea as the kids can keep the book and read it over and over again. We had a yummy lunch of roast Turkey and lamb with vegies and brandy snaps for desert. In the afternoon it is the custom for all the oldies to have a little siesta! The kids are not really into the sleep thing so they entertained themselves, including William dressing in a doyle, I am wondering if he wants to work in a court or something as they wear funny things on their heads! Another activity we did i the afternoon was foot soaking. Since mum has had her hip replacment she has not been able to bend down and do her feet so guess who got to do it this wekend? ME! We soaked, trimmed and painted toe nails, even the kids wanted in on the foot soaking!


Wow Amelia did alright in the Easter egg department.
I Love these photos of Amelia with Great Grandma, they are soemthing to treasure.

Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall! We always get a Humpty Dumpty easter eggs, this year my mum gave the kids each one.
Lottie got a snazzy new jumper as she is all good for Pj's at the moment.
William got a coyboy book from this present.
Hmmm what is in this present? A nice new BOOK!
Even Ryan is excited hope that you don't eat that all at once just think how long you will need to run after eating that?
Whoo Hoo check them out!
Grandma and Will, hmmmm not sure if Will is too happy maybe Grandma is taking too long to dish out the Easter eggs! Hurry up Grandma!Doesn't he look cute! Sometimes I think he should have been a girl, but then he has all the attitude of a boy.
