Happy Easter!

Feeling much better and just in time for Easter!

The family decided that since our daughter had to work 6am to 1pm on Easter, the Easter Bunny would visit after she got out of work.

I woke up at 6:20am...on my day off! Craziness. After failing miserably at getting back to sleep I got up and hung out in the upstairs living room while snuggled under a blankey and watched some TV. Bear woke up about 7:30am, walked into the living room to tell me "Happy Easter", strolled into the kitchen, opened the fridge, and pointed to the eggs to exclaim "I've found all the eggs. My job is done. Tell the others not to bother." Then he walked to the dining room table where all the filled baskets sat and as he wrapped his arms around all three baskets he declared "Dibs" on all three!

That was the start of a great family day. The princess came home from work and took her brothers shopping while my honey and I finished making Easter dinner. Then before they got home, the Easter Bunny arrived and hid all the eggs.

Bear did much better at finding eggs in the morning than he did later in the day but they all had fun. Unfortunately they were reminded once again that after Mrs. Bunny hides eggs, she promptly forgets where they heck she hid them. So during the game of "Hot/Cold" the kids were lead to dead ends with responses of "We already found that one." Huh, might need a notebook next year to draw a map and mark down the locations of all the eggs Mrs. Bunny hides.

Great meal, sweet laughs, and an amazing family. I love days like this. I took about a zillion photos of the kids coloring eggs and I'll have to figure out just how to get one or two onto the page just in case anybody thinks coloring eggs is just for little kids. My teenagers love it and it is something I look forward to doing with them for as many years as they will humor me in doing such.

The husband even bought a few extra sets of egg dye just in case the entire town showed up to color eggs so I'm thinking one day this summer I'll get it out and have a mid-summer Easter. Even if it's just an excuse to color eggs, we'll put them to good use in a nice potato salad.

Hope you all had a great day as well.

PS- Glitter eggs makes it super easy for kids to find them since they leave a "splatter" trail around their hidden nest. Gonna have to remember that for next year.

Cherish these times now, soon they'll be grown up and getting them all together in one place at one time will become an amazing feat.

  4. Sounds like such a nice time - and I really laughed about the way Frank started the day lol. He sounds like such a goof.

    I'm glad to hear you're feeling better and had so much fun - and I would totally need a map if I were the one hiding the eggs too!

  5. This was the first year I didn't do an Easter egg hunt - but the last few years I had to use a list to remind myself where the eggs were hidden because now that the kids are older the hiding spots were getting harder and harder and I'd forget LOL

  8. While Play Bazaar having an outdoor kitchen can add value to your home, and increase the eye-opening value of it, you should avoid installing one if you live in a climate that is not warm most of the time. This is because you will only be able to use the kitchen when it is warm outside so it will be a waste of Satta King money.
