The boys didn't get to dye easter eggs this year. I guess the thought of it just screams chaos to me. So, maybe next year.
Easter morning Greg and I woke up early so that he could hide eggs and I could start breakfast. (My boys have no patience when it comes to breakfast.) We decided to have Greg hide some plastic eggs outside and I would hide the dyed eggs inside. Well, after I got through hiding the first dozen I could hear footsteps coming down the stairs. So, I stashed the second carton of eggs behind a toy. Hailey came down and asked if she could start looking for her basket. The first place she looked... right where I had stashed the carton of dyed eggs. She just replied with "Hmm..."and a puzzled look on her face, then started looking other places for her basket. She glanced outside and saw Greg hiding eggs and asked me what he was doing. I told her that the Easter Bunny didn't know if it would rain so he filled the easter eggs and wrote Dad a note asking him to hide the eggs if the weather was good. I'm actually surprised she didn't ask to see the note. I guess next year we will only hide plastic eggs inside since we can do it the night before. (But really, how long do kids actually believe in the Easter Bunny? She will probably find out the truth by next year anyway.)
The boys liked finding eggs, but they loved opening the eggs and eating candy before Mom could take it away from them.
Hope everyone had a great Easter. Easton would like to show everyone how he celebrated with his chicken dance.
