Easter




What a beautiful and bizzare Easter we had this year. We did the Good Friday service at our church Friday evening and a few different community egg hunts on Saturday and then on Sunday we awoke to snow. We went to church for the 8:15 AM service and then came home to see what the Easter Bunny left. We took pictures in our Easter outfits and then had a silly string fight in the front yard (the Easter Bunny gave everyone some in their baskets). The silly string fight quickly turned into a snowball fight (which helped melt the snow). Then we went inside for our Easter lunch. After lunch we got ready for our own egg hunt in the front yard. The kids took turns hiding eggs and finding them for hours(the neighbors joined us). Then right before bedtime, we hid glow-in-the-dark eggs we had painted and the kids used flashlights to find them. WAY FUN!!! I have saved these eggs to use throughout the year for a fun activity. I plan on putting money and candy in the eggs as extra-incentive for those to find them.
