Look who was big enough to sit at the "kid table"!!!
(and he was definitely very pleased with himself)
Grandma organized a scavenger hunt for the kids - she had them wandering all over her neighborhood looking in trees, in old stumps, in rock piles and even piling into the back of the pick-up to get to the final destination. The scavenger hunt ended with an egg hunt that will provide candy for the next 6 months!
One of the clues was to go to the "Stomping Willow" - This tree is definitely the stomping willow!!
Running for eggs....
or just enjoying the hunt from the sidelines...
Skyler loved eating more than finding this year!
After church on Easter Sunday, we dyed our Easter eggs. I asked the boys to take the shirts off - easier to clean skin than their nice Sunday clothes.
Nana and Papa came over and we had our traditional egg rolling contest - smashing eggs and then eating them in the traditional cremed eggs over toast. It's my family tradition and maybe one day my kids will like it as much as I do... maybe. They like the egg smashing part the best though! (I didn't get pics of the egg rolling - I was too busy keeping Skyler from just breaking them all apart!)

How fun! We loved having Ben and Jenny here to do our egg tradition. It wouldn't have been any fun with just Julia...who sat in the middle of the egg roll and laughed at all the eggs coming at her. And I'm so impressed you've already blogged about Easter!
We're still a little sad that we missed out on Egg stuff this year. Brian and Michael rolled some eggs, but that was it. It's amazing how quickly I got used to this Saville tradition!
