Happy Easter!!!

Happy Easter!  What a beautiful day we had here.  A perfect day to go on an egg hunt.

Instead of hiding easter eggs and filling them with candy, we filled a few easter eggs with little notes to lead the children to the next egg, which would eventually lead them to their easter baskets.

The note on the table got them started.  The first egg took them to the fridge.


We hid eggs upstairs in the washing machine, down in the basement, in the van, on the swingset...


...in a bird house, which had the last note that took them to their baskets in our closet.


We didn't do much, but they were super excited!  It was fun to watch them racing around and working together to read the notes. 

I'll post more on our Easter day later.  Until then, we hope you had a blessed EASTER celebration!
