Easter

Happy Easter! Covid did not stop the Easter Bunny from finding us this year. We colored eggs, made Easter crafts, colored and had lots of fun. On Easter Sunday there were lots of treats and prizes for the kids. 
On Easter Sunday there were lots of treats and prizes for the kids. They each had to find 20 eggs and it took them most the day to find them all. Dad and Mom hid a gold and silver egg with money inside, it took almost a month to find them. Camrie found the gold egg with $20 and Jaren found the silver with $5.

Broken Jaren

With 5 kids and a tramp it is hard to not have some bumps and bruises. This time though it was a little worse then that for poor Jaren. He was a champ after the initial screaming, so much so that we didn't think it was so bad. Turns out it was bad. He broke his shoulder, which apparently it pretty tough to break. Six to eight weeks in a sling with X-rays every few weeks for ten weeks.
Keeping a 5 year old from running, jumping, riding, swinging, and all around playing was tough to say the least. 
There was some racing from the tramp to the swing when the fall happened. The girls felt so bad and made him a sign and got him some candy.  We also had some sweet friends bring him a treat to help cheer him up.
Even games and coloring were hard with only one hand plus it was his left hand. I would help when I could but he figured out how to do it all by himself and a few cans.
