Easter Weekend

I hope everyone had a nice Easter.  Ours was quiet and relaxed.  The kids searched for eggs and baskets before church.  We ate a quick lunch and got the kids down for their naps.  I roasted chicken and potatoes for dinner along with a side of black bean and corn salad.  Yum! 

We spent the evening playing at the beach.  It isn't a huge beach but it is only 5 miles from our house which is fun.  Much better than playing in the snow as one might have done in WI this year! 

Erik and Lainey had a lot of fun.  Lainey was especially enthusiastic about the water, she will need a good life jacket at the pool this summer as she little fear of the water!  Erik liked the water but LOVES digging in the sand. 

Carson dips his toes in the ocean

One interesting/scary thing about swimming in the ocean here is that you frequently see small jellyfish wash up to shore.  I am not a fan but will learn to "deal" as they are at all the beaches.  If you get stung it shouldn't cause more harm than a welt but still not something I hope to experience (or my kids of course).
