Easter

We had a quiet but great Easter this year.

We colored eggs...
Then Chris and Conor set up camp in the backyard and spent the night out there.  Norah and I joined them for hobo dinners and s'mores.
The next morning the Easter bunny did not disappoint!  
 
Then we had a delicious dinner of smoked beer can chicken, potatoes and (lots of) watermelon.

Conor turned 5 yesterday and we made sure it was a good birthday...
Daddy woke him up early (3:30am!) to play his Avengers game uninterrupted for a couple of hours... Kid was in heaven!
Then his is breakfast of choice: chicken nuggets, chips, and a cupcake.

Then, we got dressed and went to the train park to play for awhile.

For lunch we had Chik-fil-a and the kids played at that playground for about 30 minutes before we had to get home for Norah's nap.

After naps it was time for presents.  

After some yard playing we sat down and had Totinos pizza and watched the first part of Thor.  Then we got out the cake!

After a bath Conor and mommy went out to the movies-we saw Home.

Next up is his party Saturday at Jump City with all his friends... Wish us luck...
