Easter Picnic & Coloring Eggs

We had a great Easter. Saturday was the family Easter Egg Hunt and Picnic. Then that evening we colored eggs for the Easter Bunny to hide.

Highlights from the picnic:

* We had yummy KFC for lunch.

* Kelsie thought she was too old to hunt eggs, so this year she hid them. She had so much fun, maybe a little too much fun, some of the eggs didn't stay closed when they were placed.



* Grandma got everyone cute buckets. They loved them.

* We had 484 eggs to hide and everyone was able to hunt for 25 eggs each.











* There were two rabbits at the park, I'm sure they are going to be on a sugar high by now. The kids had fun chasing them and getting them to come out of the bushes.



* There was not enough wind to fly our new kites, but Austin and Kyle had fun trying anyway.





* We learned a new lawn bowling game, the guys and Rachel had fun playing it.

* The biggest hit of the afternoon was the bubble machine. They ran and ran through the bubbles and didn't want to stop.










Coloring Eggs is always a highlight at our house. Notice all the work shirts on the kids, that is probably their favorite part, well maybe not Kelsie. We colored about three dozen eggs and only a few got broken in the process.
