We started off by going to the Goleta Depot on Saturday, where they had an Easter celebration. For $4 per person, we got to enjoy little kiddie treats, a free train ride, and a drawing for a prize (either a plant or a stuffed bunny).
We grabbed some food on the way in and ate at a picnic table while taking in the sites-- lots of families, tons of little kiddies!
Then we started the rounds-- Todd got some free stickers, then onto a table that served free cookies and punch (one per person, of course), and finally, a visit with the Easter Bunny, where Todd received a plastic egg with a piece of candy inside. Afterward, we waited to board the little train that went around the museum and train station grounds. It was a bit remniscent of Disneyland-- a 30 minute wait for a 5 minute ride, but it was well worth it :-)
And on Sunday, we colored Easter eggs (well, Daddy colored them, Mommy and Toddy just watched) in the back patio of the apartment. During Todd's nap, Daddy hid the eggs in rather prominent spots around the apartment, and Todd had fun looking for them (with a lot of major prompting by Daddy) and putting them into his basket.
Well, one thing's for sure-- Daddy will have lunch all lined up for the rest of this week-- colorful eggs! :-)
Here's some pictures from the weekend:
