Easter Bunny has been BUSY

The kids have hinted a few times that they have been wanting to have an Easter Egg Hunt. I wasn't sure if I was up for the challenge, but after reading Running Man's comment I realized that this would be a great tradition to start and I probably don't have too many years left to do it as they won't be believers of Mr. E. Bunny for too many years to come. I began the process on Friday and hit good old Wal-Mart. Trevor and I decided that we didn't want to pump the kid's full of chocolate and decided to just get them a few pieces. We thought it would be a better idea just to get them a Nintendo DS game each, which is exactly what I did. Friday night following our outing at the movies to watch "Hannah Montana The Movie" and after the kid's were tucked away in bed I began coming up with clues for the hunt. I think I probably worked on it for an hour and half and came up these ten clues (some of them are pretty cheezey, but the kids are only 6 and 8): Normal 0 MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0cm; mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";} CLUE #1 Roses are Red Violets are Blue This is where you go When Brushing teeth is what you do.

I hope you had fun and always remember what Easter really means J After spending the afternoon/evening at my parent's place we came home and played some games with the kids and then we put them to bed and started hiding the clues. I can't wait till tomorrow as I think they will have a blast. Tomorrow after church we are off to Trevor's parent's place for some more food. Man alive...I love food and after this weekend I am going to really have to buckle down on what I put in my mouth. My half marathon is coming up here pretty darn quick. Only 2 weeks away....tomorrow is only 1 hr and 20 on the bike, so that's not too bad...I better get to bed....
