The Final Hunt

By now your probably as tired as I am hearing (reading) about our endless Easter Egg Hunts. So this is the last post about it...promise. In the past I've tried to do the Egg Hunts on Saturday and keep a more spiritual focus on Sunday but with Saturday being so busy and all we frankly didn't have time to do one at home, until Sunday after church. Each child has their own color eggs to find, painstackingly filled by the easter bunny with treats and coins. They also get a basket of goodies. I'm beginning to think my parents were onto something when as I child we just hunted for assorted jelly beans. None of this plastic egg stuff. Less work and more challenging to find, ecspecially when your inside!

Yes, Kelsey is in her jammies. She puts them on every Sunday after church even though we went to my dads later and she just had to change anyway. Whatever!
No Egg Hunt at my dad's but Nate's parents did a little one for them the following Tuesday. Please help me get rid of all this candy and I don't mean eatting it because I know how to do that.
My sister buys back her kids candy, a nickle a piece, she does it at halloween too. It ends up being about 3$ per kids (3 kids). They go for it everytime. Yes, she's brillant.

My kids do the pj thing too every single sunday. It drives me nuts but at the same time I do it sometimes. I'm starting to think that I'm okay with pj pants and a t-shirt because then you're still have dressed. LOL

Sydney puts on her pj's every Sunday after church too, I guess she figures it's easier than trying to figure out what to wear and get dressed all over again!
