The last weekend was really busy for our family.
Saturday was William's 4th birthday. We had a great party for him and his friends at a local music and movement studio called The Imagination Place. One of their wonderful teachers, Tiffany, lead us all through 45 minutes of musical playtime. We even got to play with the parachute, which all of the kids loved.
Afterwards we had sandwiches and cake in the music classroom. William got lots of toys from his friends.
Later in the afternoon we went to Grandma Nina's house to have a party with the family members. William got a ton of stuff and we had a nice visit with Paul's Aunt Elaine and her family.
By the end of the day we were all wiped out. We had so much fun!
Sunday was Easter and Paul and I were scheduled to help with the children's church. I was in the nursery with Lillian and her friends. Here they are having fun playing with toys and decorating cookies. Our friend Penny helped keep the frosting from going everywhere.
Paul helped with the kids in William's class. They made Easter egg rattles by filling plastic eggs with dried beans, and they decorated Easter pencils. Then they had an Easter egg hunt in one of the classrooms.
We spent the rest of the day at Nina's house and had a wonderful Easter dinner.
By the time we got home that night we were all dead tired. Unfortunately, I was so tired that when I was getting William out of the car I didn't notice that his foot had swung out and I accidentally closed it in the van's sliding door. I felt so bad! We put ice on it and gave him some Tylenol. The next morning it was swollen and bruised, but not broken. He managed to get up and run around at daycare with only a little limp. By this morning most of the bruising was gone and he's not limping anymore.
