The Family Egg-stravaganza

The Family Egg-stravaganza

The Kiddos
(l-r Phoebe, Noah, Tessa, Ella, Lily, Mia and Benji)

The biggest party of Spring was last Saturday, thus avoiding the Easter/Conference weekend. Pretty good planning we thought, the grass wasn't green yet but the rain stayed away and outside time was pretty good.
For fun we had bubbles, dyed eggs and decorated foam eggs. We didn't get to the pin wheels but that is ok. The table and four chairs (with an umbrella) I purchased at Sam's on Saturday was a hit!
We had a real nice picnic lunch in the livingroom. Rachael prepared it, shaped sandwiches, fruit salad, veggie chips, apple juice and bunny pudding for desert--so cute!!

The 4 two year olds, Noah, Lily, Tessa and Mia, hunted 90 eggs. Ella had her own treasure hunt, Phoebe (9 mo) observed while Sabrina (7 mo.) napped.

Great Granny's Chick in the Basket of Candy

Granny brought her famous chick basket full of candy-there just wasn't enough in the 90 plastic eggs. She also provided the dressed eggs for early brunch/munching.

For the adult lunch Beck made her luscious egg.sausage casserole while I purchased the fruit tray.

Dinner was the combined effort of all the families. Ham and Turkey, noodles alfredo, rolls, glazed carrots and asparagus followed by strawberry shortcake. Yummmm!!!
Beck was really tired during the day but no one was sick. Beck's kids had been ill the week before but they were better. Unfortunately germs were shared too.
