An Easter Egg Hunt

 

As a kid I loved Easter egg hunts. I remember my parents always did this. My Mom loved hiding those plastic eggs. Inside she'd usually put jellybeans. My Dad was big on making the Easter basket and he'd leave a letter from the Easter Bunny that said something about "the Easter Bunny had no money so instead he sent you this offering of candy and a stuffed bunny."

These things made Easter a very magical when I was a kid.

Some of these traditions I have continued with my own kids. I still make my kids baskets each year. I usually get them a stuffed animal. And my parents come for food and an Easter egg hunt.

Rain or shine, the eggs had to be put outside. This easter was overcast and grey.

Patio Garden

While the kids enjoy an Easter egg hunt, the adults can enjoy the outdoor patio.

There's an adorable topiary of bunnies.

Once the sun sets, the garden really lights up.

Happy Easter!
