Easter 2012

Our Easter festivities started on Saturday night when the Easter Bunny surprised us with a glow in the dark egg hunt!  The kids loved it and just as we were finishing it started raining, so the timing was perfect.  It was so cool to look out at the backyard and see the eggs glowing.  A few hints for future glow in the dark hunts...1) have tape available to close the eggs and 2) have extra glow sticks/bracelets in case of duds 3) darker eggs glow brighter! Also, be prepared for little to no pictures and/or video of the hunt!  We just have to treasure them in our memory banks because my night time photography is not good!

Can you see the glow?!

The EB brought coins this year.

Eggs glowing in the basket

Feeding the piggy

Sunday morning the kids woke up early so we went to the early church service.  We spent the afternoon at my parents.  Elizabeth was pointing out eggs before we were even out of the car!  The kids really enjoyed the egg hunts.  It was fun that they were both old enough to participate this year.  Elizabeth often shared her eggs with Grant.  It looked innocent and sweet, but really she was just making more room in her basket!  We praised her sharing skills anyway.  We enjoyed the afternoon together and watched plenty of the Master's tournament and even taught Grant to say, "Bubba!"  We were all rooting for Phil, but when that didn't work out we turned our attention to Bubba!

Ready for church

Now that church is over, time for the hat!

Hunting eggs!
