Easter

Thanks scootie
It is a great thing that you and your daughter help each other in that way...i know some people here that are giving their best to make their child believe in santa or the other bunch, the one that doesn't care...hope I will have the same luck with mine.

In fact I do sister millkins, but in another way! I prefer Mage of the North instead of Santa!

Your's truly!

Happy Easter! Don't eat too much chocolate

I like that Easter greeting millkins! Very cute!

Lucy actually helped me put candy into all the plastic eggs tonight. She knows I hide them. Oh, well. She enjoyed it. I put money in some of them, too. And I know I have 72 plastic eggs, each with a few jelly beans or a piece of chocolate or a few m&m's. it sounds like a lot, but it is really 3 packs of candy, and a handful of small change.

And we always hide them in the house, or wild animals may make off with them overnight. And I don't want a bunch of sick raccoons and squirrels in my yard. Plus, half the time it is cold and rainy Easter morning. A neighbor of mine had a hunt in their yard for the neighborhood kids today, but that was a 2:30 in the afternoon, so sunny and nice. But tomorrow morning when the kid gets up at 7 am, it will be cold!

72! Wow! That's a lot of hiding and searching.

I recall ages ago in primary school, we used to have an Easter egg competition every year..And I would always enter..The rules were that you weren't allowed any parental help.

I spent a lot of time on my competition entry (I made Nemo and his dad from the eggs and used plasticine for fins etc..), and when the day came, everyone pretty much thought I was going to win (not meaning to brag)..

I didn't win, and for the most annoying reason ever. They 'thought' I had parental help with mine, because of the quality of it, so they disqualified me and gave the prize to someone else.

Oh well. At least I had a lot of people acting on my behalf and asking the 'judges' why mine didn't win. I didn't bother entering any other competitions, apart from one when I was..12. It was an Easter art competition and you only had an hour to draw an entry. I did something half-arsedly and won.

I think I might still have the thing I drew. Let me see.

Uh..Yeah..Couldn't find my little copyright symbol thing..

Very cute bunny! Lucy enjoyed finding her eggs. it was not as much as it sounds like, one pack of m&m's, one pack of little Dove chocolate pieces, and one bag of jelly beans. We made them go a long way in the eggs! Easter isn't a really big deal for us. We had pizza for dinner! HA!

My Easter was interesting...I got an 8gig USB from my grandma instead of chocolate. Well, at least I know I'll use it!
We always used to have egg hunts when we were little, ours were massive and spilled out into the back yard, once even the front yard! There would occasionally be one of two eggs left in the garden, discovered only until we pruned the plants a couple of months later...
