Easter Egg Hunt

Nicole Nannie and I decided to do this year's Easter egg hunt together. We planned it for the week before Easter, and wouldn't you know it? It rained! We were forced to have the hunt inside, but that was ok. The kids had a ball, and everything turned out great.

We had a nice array of snacks for the kids and parents to munch on.

We had a contest to see who could guess the number of jelly beans. We figured the adults needed some fun, too!


I made the rice krispy treats that looked like baskets. I dyed coconut green for the grass and put M&M's in them to look like eggs.
Nicole made the perfect brownies. I have to get one of those perfect brownie pans!

We hid the eggs for the big kids upstairs and the little kids downstairs.


Christopher was the "big" kid downstairs. He actually understood to pick up the eggs and put them in his basket.


The big kids took off upstairs. We told them to find 15 eggs. Then they had to wait until everyone had 15 before finding more.


Princess Reese looked super cute as always.


Cash was the little rock star singing Wiggles songs. He made me miss Jack's curls. :(


Trent found eggs up high. :)


Jack figured out the eggs had stuff in them. Look Mommy! M&M's - or in Jack language - hump, umm, MaaaMaaa!

All in all, it was a great day. Thank goodness we have an open house. There were alot of people in our house, but it never felt like we were sardines.


Everyone emptied the eggs and let us keep them for next year, and Jack thought that they were great fun to play in.


You never know what you're gonna see around this house - Fred doing pushups?!

After the egg hunt, Matt got Wrestlemania, so many of the boys and their dads stayed for that.


Here are the three amigos (Trent, Parker T., and Jacob). They were REALLY into it.


Jack took Wrestlemania very seriously! We thought it was so cute with his hand on David's leg. :)
