easter eggcellence

It's that time of the year again, you know the post-Easter days. Time for everyone to break out their white clothes and seersucker whatnots. See, I'm just not one of the people. I don't mind wearing my white jeans in the weeks before it's seen kosher. Hate me, judge me, it makes me no difference. I know that somewhere in that head of yours that you are wishing that you had on your white. Jump on the ignorance train with me!

We had a wonderful Easter. I got to celebrate it twice, Delta Easter and Jackson Easter. I need to make this an every holiday occasion. Who would say no to double the gifts on Christmas? Not this chick. Now on to the Easter Eggcellence!

Lundie thoroughly enjoyed what the Easter Bunny dropped off for her.  It took her a minute to figure out which would be her favorite, but in the end the ball reigned supreme.

We dye and hunt eggs every year. You are never too old for a good ole egg hunt. In my passing egg-hunting years, I have grown wiser. I know the good spots to look and the tricks the Bunny likes to pull. Well this year, I outsmarted the Bunny. See, I made the "golden egg" and invented a new egg-hunting tradition. Whoever finds this egg gets $20. It only seems fair with the rising price of gold these days. You'll never guess who found it - ME! I'm thinking about next year making a titanium, rhodium and platinum egg.

My aunt made us confetti eggs for Easter. We cracked a few and saved the rest for Joseph's nieces. When I got to Jackson, they swarmed me to find out what was in the egg box. When I opened it, their mouths flew open full of questions. The best part, JoJo (what they call Beibs) was their target. We took them outside, set Beibs in the middle and away they went. Tons of flying arms came crashing down on his head with the hopes of breaking their eggs. Poor Beibs. Thankfully, he managed to make it out without a black eye.

My mom LOVES to decorate the fridge. It is always plastered in notes, sayings and humiliating pictures. This trip home I discovered this flashback. It may or may not be my Easter picture, but for the fact that I'm wearing pink I'm guessing it to be true. Happy post-Easter from baby me.
