We decorate eggs every year on the Saturday before. This year we did 52 eggs and we still could have done more. It is always a lot of fun. Only a couple of the eggs were dropped in the process. It was all in good fun!
We usually have a Easter egg hunt with our family on Sunday after church. I really down play the whole Easter bunny thing. In fact we don't really do the Easter bunny. The kids get baskets in the morning when they wake up. It is usually filled with books and things for their church bags. This year I did sneak in some bubbles. Which because of the bad weather on Easter, ended up on my garage floor! Our egg hunt is usually outside in the yard, but this year it was rainy and dreary so we had our first indoor hunt. It was actually really nice!
Along with candy in the eggs we made a couple eggs with some special coupons inside. I didn't think the kids would like them as much as the candy eggs, because the instant gratification was not available. But I was wrong. Those were a hit!! I am going to do more of those next year, and less of the candy!! That will be for my own good!! (I have no will power!!)
Owen, Avery, and Quin.
Of course Quin LOVED digging in his eggs. I had to Clorox his nice white shirt after the day!
Sue-Sue helping Quin. Quin ate while he hunted.
