Easter Eggstravaganza - Part I




Last weekend we had two Easter Egg hunts, needless to say Kenyon is sugar happy. What a great holiday, furry animals that bring you candy. Almost as good as Halloween...a sugar addicts favorite holiday.

She was cute with her basket at the city egg hunt on Saturday. Here are some photos of the hunt and then of course counting her loot.









She even had a chance to sit on the Easter Bunny's lap. On Sunday our church hosted a picnic and egg hunt. My sweet friend Julie was there with her granddaughter, Mia. The girls had a great time cracking confetti eggs on each other's head. Mia told Kenyon, "You gotta do it harder" Apparently the harder the crack the better the confetti spray. Who knew?!


Kenyon was a bit more particular at this egg hunt. She only wanted to pick up the pretty eggs, meaning those that were decorated with insects or other designs. This hunt proved to be more fruitful in the candy department. Mommy was bummed there wasn't any chocolate.


Oh, I forgot the most exciting part of all...at the city egg hunt they were giving away Easter Baskets. The one Kenyon picked was the Hannah Batana (Montana) bucket, which she promptly put on her head when we got home. For some reason that kid likes to put buckets, boxes, and bowls on her head.


Stay tuned for part two of the Easter festivities. We will go to early church then on to Nana & Paw Paw's for ribs and an egg hunt. Paw Paw isn't letting me in the door without my potato salad and my butterscotch bitsy. It should be fun, Candace will be in town with her two boys. We all hope she doesn't give birth while she visiting as she is due any day now.


Many blessings this Holy week, and a chocolate bunny or two.

It's not a party 'til someone puts a bucket on their head! Happy Easter, Spring, Equinox and Passover, everybody!
