Egg-citing Easter

Here's a list of Easter fun that we had.
  • Our friend's Hannah and Adam (our minister's kids) came over on Palm Sunday to dye and decorate eggs with us. My dad and Alice had sent some really cool egg kits -- Elam made an egg guy on a scooter and Hannah and I made egg bugs. Ben said something about throwing eggs at people and that's all that Adam wanted to do! Hannah got attacked in the back garden by all the boys. She's tough!
  • We made traditional Easter nest treats at Regin's house.
  • We had Easter dinner with Regin and family on Saturday night. Whitney and Mike had set up an Easter egg hunt for the kiddos. They have 3 floors in their house, so each on had their own hunt on a level.
  • There was an Easter basket with light up swords, a family game, big chocolate eggs, and lots of goodies...plus eggs to hunt.
  • We had a nice Easter service at church with an egg hunt in the middle for the kids.
  • We got together with a bunch of the American PhDers and families for an Easter potluck...and egg hunt.
  • There were snow flurries all weekend too -- a bit different from last year's Easter when the boys were in shorts!

Oh my....sounds like and looks like you had a great time.

Ours was pretty quiet. We were to go to our friends house Sunday evening for Easter dinner, but I was sick, her husband was STILL sick and so it was not all we had planned. Alice did go and she had fun meeting their kids and seeing some new friends.

Glad the kiddos enjoyed the egg coloring kits.

Love
Dad
