Fed Like Kings!

I finally uploaded all the Easter pics so now I can visually share our wonderful day as well as explain what we did! Let me first start out by saying that this Easter was worlds apart from last Easter. True Seth was a whole year older, but man what a year has done for our boy! Last year Seth was sick on Easter and Ro and I were nervous wrecks. It was our first time away from home with him and he was fussy and we were just balls of nerves. This year we set him down in Auntie Sheryl's house and he was off. He played from 12:30-5:30 with stops to eat, but just played and had a blast. What a relief and a GREAT day!
When we got there we fed Seth lunch and started on our whirlwind of amazing appetizers! We were truly fed like kings. I made this new pepperoni/ham/cheese bread (so delicious, recipe to come!) and they pulled out shrimp wrapped in bacon as well as clams with butter. It was a feast and this was just snacks! The rest of the afternoon we played and layed low. Seth took a little ride on Uncle Eric's four wheeler, but it was a little cold so that didn't last too long.
Aunt Sheryl and Uncle Eric held onto their tradition and even got Seth is first camping chair and golf set for Easter. A tradition they started back with Lexy many years ago! Seth had a blast with them both.
After many many hours of play we moved onto dinner and oh what a dinner it was... We had filet's wrapped in bacon, grilled asparagus, green bean casserole, and german potato salad. Plus for dessert we had homemade apple pie and homemade carrot cake. As you can see we ate our way through the day like all great holidays are supposed to be!

Roland, Seth and I would like to say an extra special THANK YOU to you guys for such a wonderful day! We had a blast and we promise to visit before another year goes by again. We are going to head your way come boating season to take Seth on Sacondaga Lake! We can't wait!
Today we hope that the painters will have started working on our house. They said possibly today, but definately tomorrow so we will just have to wait and see when we get home! It feels so good to have a painting project that I am NOT doing. Paint is a nasty word after all the painting we have done in our house in the past 5 years!!!
