Happy Easter!

We had company visiting for Easter this year. It was fun to have visitors and we have been missing these friends who moved from our area to Seattle last summer. So, it was great to have them here!

An outdoor Easter egg hunt was fun for the kids right after the group pictures were taken!

Regina's family brought some funny "confetti eggs" that is a tradition for their family. Before the pictures, she went and hid the confetti eggs outside with the Easter Bunny eggs. These are dyed egg shells filled with paper confetti and sealed with a piece of tissue paper. When they found a confetti egg, they smashed it on someone's head. I do not fully understand this tradition... but, everyone thought it was fun - despite the fact that they can actually hurt!

The bigger kids did a great job of helping the younger kids find a few eggs. Everyone got plenty of plastic eggs filled with chocolates and assorted candies.

Even the littlest egg hunter found something fun... the confetti sprinkles!!!
