Spring Break Happenings, part III

Easter did happen at our house this year. Yep, it happened in April just like everybody else's calendars had it scheduled. Because of my catch-up here, you get to hear about it in June. You are welcome! :-)

Besides the great egg hunt with Grandpa and Vicki, we did have our own egg hunt here at home after we got home from church. Since they had quite a bit of candy already, we mixed things up by adding change to some and coupons for activities in other eggs. The boys were pretty pumped to add up their money. (I am not sure they have been quite sure about how the coupons work since we still have them sitting on the counter. :-)
The best part of the hunt...
...emptying the eggs

We also spent time decorating hard-boiled eggs using a different method that was called volcano egg dyeing which was a bit time-consuming but quite fun.

We all enjoyed watching the baking soda paste foam when we dropped vinegar onto the eggs.
