Early Easter

Every Easter, my mom would hide chocolate around the house for us. Whether each kid got a bag with their name on it, or there were just three bags hiding that were all fair game, or there were several different treats hidden all over and we each got however many, there was always a hunt. Now that all the kids are grown and married, my parents have graciously offered a switch from chocolate to some cash towards a date. Brady and I chose chocolate 🙂

So after church today, we searched for our bags. The living room, kitchen, and dining room were our rooms to check. I found mine first, which is actually quite something since we had to find the one with our name on it. I did! I waited until the others were found (plural because my dad played this year) before I cracked mine open so we could all be surprised at once. SUCH a good haul! I got a white chocolate solid chocolate bunny, a Lindt bunny, little Cadbury bunnies, a Reese’s egg, an Aero egg, mini eggs, and lots of little foily ones filled with peanut butter or caramel. I’m pretty sure we made the right choice this Easter!

I’m looking forward to tomorrow. I feel very excited for the months to come, as they are loaded with lots of events for Brady and I to enjoy together. However, I have them all recorded in different places, whether in my phone, my wall calendar, or on my computer. Heck, I have my list of doctors appointments in my car still! So I’m really excited to sit down and write out everything that is coming up this year that I know about. I adored being pregnant with Dekker! I felt amazing all the time. I’m not feeling so hot this time around and I don’t want to wish these months away. So this way, I’ll be able to look over them and see all the exciting things I have to look forward to. I think that will be a goal for tomorrow. See how much I can fit in while leaving myself some good solid rest time, and room for one or two day trips to the lake. Perhaps a small goal, but if I set like seventeen big goals, I guarantee not even one will get done, so this is just a better option for me.

Anything exciting coming up that I should know about? Who wants to add to my calendar?!
