It has become a tradition in our family after church on Easter to come to our house for pizza and an Easter egg hunt. A few friends join us sometimes too. And it's not just the kids that hunt eggs; it's the adults as well!
I reviewed the "rules," and the hunt was on! The adults' eggs were hidden in high places, and the kids' in low.
Some were hidden in strange places (incidentally, the egg he sought was on the floor behind the toilet, not in it.)
Afterward, everyone examined their loot.
My brother's birthday was a couple of weeks ago, so my mom made a "bunny" cake (every 37-year-old man's dream), and he opened his gifts after we ate.
It was a wonderful day to celebrate Jesus' resurrection and have a little fun with family and friends as well.
Don and my brother Andy made homemade pizza in advance, so when we got home, all we had to do was pop it in the oven -- much easier than a fancy dinner and at least as much fun!
When they got here, everyone (who wasn't cooking) had to stay downstairs until the hunt began.
