The Saturday after Easter John's family came over for a belated Easter celebration. We were planning on getting together the weekend before Easter, but all the kids were sick so we pushed back a week.
We all pitched in and brought enough food to feed a few armies and enough eggs for a dozen kids to hunt. We just talked and caught up on everything first then Grammie and Aunt Lisa hid eggs in the hallway, dining room and the kids' room (we were going to do it outside until we had a bunch of rain the day before!). Then we turned the kids loose to gather the eggs. Lets just say we have a true competitor amongst us. Abby was all about getting the most eggs! Forget about everyone else, she had her sights on those eggs and even the size of her basket wasn't going to slow her down. Her basket finally go so full that every time she'd bend down to get another egg, everything would topple out of her basket. The girl was on a mission! Jake was curious to see what was in the eggs, so he only got a few then grabbed Grammie to open the goodies inside. Paige and Ethan were having fun too gathering eggs, but they'd leave their baskets behind occasionally then realize they had nothing to put the eggs in. The kids were really cute and everyone had fun.
