Happy Easter!!!...

Easter is upon us and I think it’s safe to say; I am SUPER FREAK when it comes to holidays.  I love, LOVE finding new ideas and creating traditions along with lasting memories.  And…seriously…the payoff come morning time makes it that much more worth the planning and late nights.

So…Easter morning the girls woke to many trails in the house.  They started off at the breakfast counter where an almost empty basket was left along with their breakfast…complete with Bunny Tails [donut holes], OJ and yogurt with sprinkles.  The basket housed a single egg which started their Easter Basket Scavenger Hunt. 

Each egg had a picture clue with a treat/prize that lead to the next egg.  And leading up to each egg the Bunny left a "mess" with paw prints, jellybeans and mini play-doh. "Messy Marvin!"

Then, of course…

Baskets were found in their bathtub but once seen...picture taking was mere impossible....

We also planted jellybeans this year in the front yard.  The girls were amazed to find that on Easter morning jellybeans sprout LOLLI’s!!!  They couldn’t even wait…they had to open one immediately.  [The “Sugar Rush” song from Wreck-It Ralph suddenly popped in my head]

The girls then hunted eggs in the backyard with friends, Valerie and Evan. 

We enjoyed lunch with our friends then headed to The Flores house for Easter activities.  The kids painted ceramic eggs and colored hard boiled ones.  [Note to self…coloring eggs with shaving cream and food coloring is SUPER FUN but BEWARE…food coloring stains tiny hands, HOT PINK.]

Hope everyone had a fantastic day. 

Happy Easter!
