Easter was such a beautiful day
And spending time with family and friends just capped it off beautifully.
Faron & Jason started things off by moving the picnic table from under the side porch to out front under the trees, in readiness for the egg hunt crowd.
I didn’t say HOW they moved it!
Mission accomplished.
It was so lovely out there, we threw a sheet on the table, I pulled my scooter up to the end where Faron’s standing and we ate our Easter dinner there under the trees.
After dinner, we all trooped back inside to prepare things for the egg hunt. There were a few eggs to be filled and candy to be organized. We didn’t want to put chocolate out where it’d melt in the sun, so we put pennies in plastic eggs to be redeemed for un-melted chocolate.
After all was made ready, we all trooped back outside (all, btw, being Faron, Jason, Tiana & me) to play bunny.
Jason had way too much fun tossing candy and treats around the yard. That’s one crazy bunny!
Make that 2 craazy bunnies…
No, that’s THREE craaazy bunnies!
They had a ball. Way more fun than should be.
Jason hid stuff in a few more difficult places for older kids like Rachel and her boyfriend, Grant, or Ethan & Stefan (who didn’t have the decency to show up!) and J & T both hid things here:
Three prizes in one miniature rose bush. Overkill?
After the prizes were dispersed, Tiana stretched out on the lawn to “catch some rays” and call her parents, where the phone was passed from her mom to her granny to her dad and back again.
Jason worked hard at convincing his dad he needs an iPad:
And, that’s all the photos I have edited. I am now officially sick after the wild shenanigans of the weekend – cellulitis has struck my left foot and it hurts like crazy. I’m sorry but I don’t feel like doing anymore for now. But it was a great day – more photos to come with lots of cute kids – and not Derek or Jared, either!
