Easter Adventures

Operation Extreme Eggdrop happened on Saturday before Easter. A local church had a helicopter drop 6,000 candy-filled Easter eggs in three different drops. It sounded too cool to miss. It turned out pretty great, only they saved the fewest eggs for the largest group of children, so Lolee only got a couple, and was a little sad about it. We really tried to emphasize that seeing the helicopter was why we were there.

And the race is on!
Our Easter egg hunt at home was much calmer!
We made birds nests out of marshmallows, chow mein noodles and Cadbury minis. The kids thought it was great fun, and our friends we shared with thought we were so clever. Thanks, Mom!
Our egg-dying party was pretty normal, but the kids liked it. We had a group vote on the color of every egg. Good thing we had lots of eggs.
