One Yellow Egg!



We spent Easter weekend up at my parents' house in Fontana, WI. It was a nice change of pace and good to get away for a little bit. I think the funniest part of the weekend had to be the Easter Egg Hunt. We had "practiced" at the house before going over by having a mini Easter egg hunt in the family room. Nolan seemed to totally get it and loved putting all the different eggs in his basket. So we get there and it's roped off by age which was nice, so Nolan was in the "2 & under" category. He tells us right before the start that he only wanted yellow eggs. So here's all these kids going to town and filling their baskets and Nolan would pick up eggs and put them back on the ground if they weren't yellow. And here we are saying "It's ok Nolan, just put them in your basket..." Nolan definitely has a mind of his own...he only wanted yellow. So at the end of the hunt, how many eggs does Nolan have in his basket?? One! We're thinking he was the only kid to leave there with only one egg, but he was completely content so that's what made it especially funny. Yellow is definitely his favorite color right now.

Overall, it was a fun weekend...lots of quality time with Mana Jeanne, Papa, & Uncle Ryan. We went out to eat a couple times, colored Easter eggs, read lots of books, went to the park, made cookies, and explored Uncle Ryan's new boat and new house which is just a couple blocks away.

Such a funny story - at least you bypassed all the candy!

Yellow is by far Levi's favorite color too!
