Mamaw & Papaw were still in Florida during Easter weekend so they had our dinner and egg hunt on the following Sunday. Everyone was there including Mamaw's sister and her daughter & son and their families . Aunt Nikki, Uncle Jason, Aunt Shannon, Uncle Jim and the kids of course too! This is definitely an egg hunt that I've been told that I don't want to miss.....Mamaw stopped making big baskets of candy because she thinks everyone gets plenty from the bunny and other Grandparents. So her and Papaw decided several years ago to take all the money they used to spend on the baskets and divide it up and put in eggs. Everyone is aloud to find 10 eggs and then quit looking when they have them. When everyone has found them all, we open and see how much we got. This year I found $23.00. The idea is for us to go spend our money on something that we want and not end up with a bunch of candy.....I could get used to this even though I didn't find the golden egg ($20.00)!
It was a wonderful evening and the weather ended up better than the weekend before anyway. Mom said it was nice not to have two places to go all in the same day for a change. Thanks for the great day Mamaw & Papaw!
p.s..Matthew still looks for his eggs too! HeHeHe
