We always have a ton of Easter Egg Hunts each year, which makes for a fun holiday weekend! We attended the annual Morgan Easter Egg Hunt on Good Friday. Saturday was the annual hunt at our church. Sunday we had a hunt of our own...only with ours we had to get a bit creative since it was far from good hunting weather outside! Each one provided some good laughs, yummy candy, & more plastic eggs then we know what to do with!

Grace was into what I like to call "selective egg hunting" this year. She was either interested in getting only the pink & purple eggs or she was interested in the eggs that made a noise when she shook them (meaning yummy candy was inside)! Every so often she would wind up with a few "other" colors in her basket. Luke was more interested in just running around. He would glady pick up an egg, but instead of putting it in his basket he would throw it! I had hidden some Starburst Jelly Beans in our eggs & he was rather excited to discover them...it made for a whole new ball game (or egg hunt)!

Grace added a new tradition this year. She saw a commercial on TV with a mom & daughter making Rice Krispie Treat eggs dipped in chocolate & sprinkles. She declared that we were making those this year. So, we did! It was very easy, fun, & quite yummy I might add! We had fun making them & she was pleased with our new "tadition".
We also did the usual PAAS egg dying kit. We made sure to do this while Luke was napping on Saturday afternoon! I could only imagine what would be dyed if he joined in on the fun. There's always next year for the little man! Grace had fun...she was more interested in the fact that her little fingers were stained from the dye! So much fun!!

The "Easter Bunny" left some cool goodies for the kids. I think the big hit of the year was the new Yo Gabba Gabba DVD that was in Luke's basket. Both kids have been mesmerized by it! That Easter Bunny knows what "she's" doing I tell ya!!
