Easter Sunday ended up being a rough day in our household. We did manage to have a nice Easter brunch, color and hunt eggs and open gifts. However, Brent had to leave that afternoon for 3 weeks in Australia. And, about 2 hours after Brent left for the airport, Greyson got the stomach flu and was up all night with it. By Monday night, Isla and I had it all night. I thought we were in the clear, but Greyson got sick again on Tuesday all over the living room, so I had to make a call to the in-laws for back up. Fortunately, they showed up within a few hours with the steam cleaner! So, a big thank you to them for saving us (and the carpet, couch, ottoman, blankets and more)!

We got better and headed to my parents’ house the following weekend for our McMath Easter celebration. It was a nice visit with family, and the kids got the hunt and color Easter eggs again with their cousins.

Meanwhile, in transit to Australia, Brent’s flight was canceled leaving LAX so he spent most of the night in the airport, then a few hours in a hotel room to sleep and shower before finally getting out the next afternoon. I’m really hoping that doesn’t happen to us when we all make the trek down under!
