Alright the house is spotless, the kids are getting ready, and FP's parents should be here in an hour. I took a deep breath finally relaxing. I had spent a week keeping the house clean, so we could host Easter. Fred Hermione and their two kids were coming along with FP's mother, father, brother and sister. Luckily his brother only had one child.
"FP are you ready?" I walked into our room. "Just finished." He smiled and grabbed my hand. "Ok you watch the kids while I..."
"Relax, breath babe." He chuckled and brought me down into his lap. "I just want everything to be perfect. Charles is so excited and it's Elliana's first year." I sighed and laid my head on his shoulder.
"The kids would have the same amount of fun if we told them to play in a puddle...and for my family, your fine they love you." FP kissed my cheek.
"Ok I will relax." I smiled and kissed his cheek. "But really watch the kids."

"Daddy." Elli called out from her high chair. "Yes princess?" He smiled at the banana smushed on her face. "I done." She chuckled and lifted her arms up. "Let's get you a bath and in your Easter dress." He kissed her cheek.
"Charles, can you come here." FP called from the bathroom. He came running in almost slipping on the rug. "Did mommy lay your clothes out?" Charles nodded playing with the airplane he brought with him.
"Can you go put the clothes on like a big boy?" FP asked hoping for Charles cooperation. "I am a big boy." He huffed giving his full attention to FP. "That's why I need you to get dressed." FP kissed his cheek and Charles hopefully went to get dressed.
"I'm a pwincess." Ellie laughed and spun around in her dress. "Yes you are." I smiled and picked her up. "Are you excited to see grandma and grandpa?"
She nodded fiercely and wiggled to get down. "Al my parents are here." FP yelled from downstairs. "Charles you ready?" I smiled at the neatly dressed boy. He nodded and took my hand.
"Hi babies." Mrs. Jones smiled picking up Ellie. "Hi Pop." Charles smiled taking in all the hugs. "Your cousins are outside, go say hi." They ran out the door giggling. "You look wonderful." Jan smiled hugging me.
"Likewise." I smiled and hugged Forsythe next. "Alright all children to the backyard." I chuckled and all five of them ran to the back. "Fred hermione." We said hello to everyone and followed the kids.
"Lily this is Hermione. She lives next door." I smiled and introduced the girls. "Hermione this is..."
"I'm FP's younger sister." She smiled as we sat down. "Ali baby can you get the eggs for the kids?"
"Ya." I smiled and grabbing the two dozen eggs.
"Thank you beautiful." He smiled and kissed me. "Alright no need to suck up. It's a holiday you'll get something." FP's brother laughed. "Shut up." I gasped and slapped the back of his head.
He held is hands up in surrender and I sat back down. "Was he already making jokes?" Lily asked. "When does he not?" I rolled my eyes.
~~
"Kids I think someone brought you something." FP smiled and opened the back door. Lined up were baskets full of candy and stuffed animals. I picked up Elliana before she could get trampled on. We all sat with kids and watched them open the baskets.
They had the biggest smiles on their faces. We let them play with the new toys awhile before we sat down and ate. We sat everyone outside since it was a nice day.
"Is everyone done?" Lily asked cleaning the kids faces. They all nodded and waited to see the back yard. Lily was trying to keep them entertained while we set the eggs out.
"Alright let them loose!" Fred yelled. The kids ran around crazy tripping over their baskets. "Here Ellie let me help you." Lily laughed and held the basket.
"They are adorable." FP smiled hooking his arms around me. "Just like their daddy." I kissed his nose. "How many eggs did you get!" I gasped and held Charles eggs.
"I got a lot mom look!" He jumped proudly. "You did get a lot. Maybe later daddy will help you count." I smiled and he nodded.
"I believe this one is yours." Lily smiled and handed Ellie to FP. "How many did you get?"
"Lots." She giggled holding the small basket up. "You and your brother did such a good job." I kissed her cheek.
The rest of the day the kids played and the adults chatted with one another.
~~
"I think today was a success." FP huffed falling onto the bed. "I'm wiped." I yawned and laid down next to him. He pulled me closer wrapping me into his arms. "Love you." I mumbled into the pillows. "Love you to baby. Happy Easter."
Happy Easter 🐣. I know it's shorter, but I wanted to get something out😘
