Easter in June

Yep...it's June and I've left the Easter blog hanging for sometime. Here goes.....what has happened to the good old fashioned Easter egg hunt? Here's Cupcake at our church's Easter egg hunt prior to our special Easter service:

Do you see a hunt? No....you see tons of eggs thrown in an open field and children running around trying to gather as many as they can. No hunting, no looking, no problem solving....just shoving towards the most eggs and...you got it....more sugar.

Thanks to Grandma and Grandpa our girls got to put their minds to work to have a REAL Easter egg hunt with NO candy filled eggs...just real live eggs we had dyed together in some sweet family time.

We went out to their lake condo for the day and enjoyed a yummy brunch with chocolate filled croissants, lemon muffin, and fruit salad. Then the girls hunted eggs, went swimming, and explored the beautiful courtyard with fountains they were particularly fond of.  We had a delicious pizza lunch and then while the girls napped we watched some U of L basketball. Winning! After nap Grandma made a FABULOUS fish dinner with yummy sides. We basically ate our way through the day...and loved it all. Here are a few pictures:

 Cutie pie wasn't too sure about the chaos at the "hunt" at church:

Yummy lemon brunch muffin!

And the remnants of a chocolate croissant: 

Grandma and Grandpa found these awesome handmade eggs at a local candy shop:

On the inside there are tiny little chocolate figurines!!
