Huntin' Easter Eggs

Last Sunday we had a family Easter dinner at my folks place. We were hoping Wen & her family would be there, but her son was sick so they stayed home. We had a delicious turkey dinner and then the boys very excited told us it was time to hide the eggs for the egg hunt. My guess is that we hid about 75 eggs, and this time we tried to make it a little harder....there were many hidden in the lemon tree and places that were higher than they were used to looking. For the first time they followed each other around, trying to grab each other's finds. At one point Squish ran past Mr. W not really paying attention and the older brother grabbed a large egg out of Squish's basket. Fortunately Grandma "Mayme" was watching and the egg was quickly returned. It was a really fun afternoon, sorting eggs in the backyard, divvying up the contents (one for me, one for Pop, two for me, one two for Pop.) Not really, but it was cute watching Mr. W give Pop all the candies he didn't want. It seems like we are almost always out of town for Easter and end up doing egg hunts in our hotel rooms. This year will be no exception, but it was nice to visit at my folks place too!

Happy Easter everyone!
