~ COLORING EGGS ~

We got together with our friends and had our Easter Egg Coloring party over the weekend. We always look forward to these traditions and spending time with these wonderful friends. This year it was at Barb & Tom's house ~ they set up the garage for the egg coloring ~ it actually wasn't too messy this year?! Do the little ones look happy or what?!

The girls first choice was PINK!



Mia is still light enough to hold "football" style :)
While the kids colored eggs, the daddys' were assigned a very important job: hiding the plastic eggs around the house! Each kid had their own color and the dad's hid the eggs according to age. They were told to hide the eggs still in the plastic bag in a more difficult spot, since these eggs were filled with money!

Madison's ready too!
Eddie is doing pretty good!
So, the egg hunt was going real well, until the kids were all having trouble finding their last egg. . . we tried to help as best we could, but even the mom's couldn't find them! We complained to the dad's and told them they shouldn't have made it soooooooo hard. After some bantering back and forth....um, the dad's realized they NEVER hid the eggs with the $ in them! They were still in the plastic bag ~ while we feverishly looked for them...
The kids all agreed, next year the mom's were in charge of the egg hunt :)
