when I started this blog five years ago, I was a pet sitter and the name animal-crackers made sense. now I'm a stay-at-home-dad and freelance writer, but rather than confuse everyone by getting a different blog, it's just easier to keep posting things here.

Happily Easter.

Josh woke this morning to find his Easter basket filled with eggs we dyed last night, some chocolate and candy, and an apple. He also found a few eggs that the Easter bunny hid for him.

Andrea and Josh had another egg hunt later in the back yard. Actually, there were three. Andrea hid and then re-hid the eggs. And then Josh wanted me to hide the eggs. You know, to mix it up.

There was also some baking of Easter cookies.

Exciting stuff.
