The kids absolutely loved Easter. Today they woke up to baskets of candy, and outfit and a movie for the family. The Easter bunny definately knew what the kids needed and wanted. Although they did not understand why they didn't get a prepackaged basket from the local Wal-mart, they were still happy. Zek had a sleep over with grandma and forgot to take his basket with him so the his basket was filled at the house and brought to him later. Kids are so funny that way (the reason why the bunny did not know his location). Mya put on her outfit and told me that "yellow was definately her color." We had lunch at great grandmas with the best egg hunt of all. Since we were expecting more kids to be at the hunt, everyone filled a lot of eggs and then there were 3 kids who made a haul on the candy. Zek, Mya and Kesiah had a blast searching for eggs with their buckets overflowing.
Highlights from the weekend:
Chaysee eating candy with the paper on
Chaysee grabbing every piece of candy she could get to, it didn't matter whose basket it was in.
Watching the "Last Song" take tissues, what a great movie!
Ok I saved the best for last
Zek swallowing yes swallowing Scotts wedding ring.
Friday morning I was getting Mya ready for the day and Scott was getting ready. As I am fixing Myas hair I hear Zek coughing in his room. I proceed to ask him what the problem is and I get no response. I figure he is ok. Then a few minutes later I hear Scott ask him where his ring is. Scott then comes running out and says that Zek swallowed his ring. Zek and I immediately drive to the ER, the whole time he is gagging on this ring and trying to get it out. When we get there a paramedic who was standing around immediately takes Zek to the back and tries to get the ring out of his throat, he is unsuccessful. By the time we get checked in and Zek gets an x-ray, the ring is in his stomach and we are sent home. (I think of Aaron and Kristen and how I just read of Paige swollowing batteries, how could I let this happen). Before we left the Doctor told us that what goes in will come out and that we should watch for it. Well I had a girl weekend planned in Spokane with my mom and sisters, so I left it up to Zek and Scott. So far no ring. All you can do is laugh because seriously we are just thankful he is ok.
