Easter

We had a lovely Easter with my parents, but, of course, the festivities started on Saturday.

Heather & I took Bailey, Reece & Rayne to Publix for the annual egg hunt.Rayne found the golden egg, so she got to pick a pre-made Easter basket!!

Then we headed over to a local church for an egg hunt. 

The girls did well!

At the same time, my friend Kerrie took her son & Jake to an egg hunt that was being put on by a local church. They were dropping 50,000 eggs out of a helicopter!  Sounds great, right?  Well, the first group started running and all bent down to gather eggs, the second group went forward and trampled them, and so on.  Both Jake & Brent ended up with cuts and bruises and they each got one egg.  Yes, that’s right- I said ONE egg. 

On Easter Sunday, we went to church for a standing room only service- it was great!  Then, my parents and Tim came over for lunch and an egg hunt.  We spent the rest of the day watching Bizarre Foods and Anthony Bourdain. We all had a great time!

  1. Man, your kids must have been “egg hunted” out! By the way, I used those same baskets for the kiddos at my egg hunt. Wal-mart? $1?

  3. What fun! I can’t believe that about the kids getting scraped up at the egg hunt! Crazy! I think that some friends of mine were at the same hunt and couldn’t find their daughter the ENTIRE time. She didn’t get any eggs! (Another little girl shared with her, though!)

  5. Those Easter baskets are HUGE! Eggs out of a helicopter? I’ve certainly never heard that one before!
