Our Favorite Spring Holiday

We boiled 4 dozen eggs this year to decorate for Easter--wow! The kids and Jen F. had a great time mixing and matching colors until each egg was a mini work of art. We were glad to have so many eggs because Coleman kept accidentally breaking them. Each time he was so upset, then Bud or Rosie would offer him one of their eggs and his smile returned. Unfortunately, he would break another egg and the sad face would return. All was well in the end; he had more eggs than anyone else because the others kept sharing with him!

All the eggs that Coleman kept breaking we made into egg-salad sandwiches, yum!

The Easter Bunny did a fabulous job of hiding the eggs this year; tucked away in interesting places but not too obscure that the egg stays hidden forever. Coleman again broke many eggs, but was not so upset about it as the day before. The Easter Bunny hid the baskets in the double ovens and each child had a $5 bill in a plastic egg. They must have been hungry because Bud wanted to spend his money on a Subway sandwich and Coleman wanted to buy a box of honeynut cheerios!

We then enjoyed a delicious lamb dinner and watched "Church on TV". Happy Easter!
