In any case, this page was based on a a beautiful sketch by LG Belarmino. I wanted to make something really happy and spring-y (the season, not the metal coil).
Since we have such a big family with little kids, we have an Easter egg hunt every year on Easter Sunday. We've been doing it for some time now, but the one pictured here is the first one that my nephew, Dyllan, joined in. He was the youngest among the kids being just a little over one year old at the time (2008) and needed some help from his Mama and Papa. I think he had a lot of fun though, because he looks forward to the egg hunt every year.
This year, we're planning to decorate our eggs because we missed doing it last year when we used plastic eggs. Which were very bright and colorful and had candy inside it, but it took away from the fun of doing something crafty :) Here are some eggs we decorated way back in 2008.
We deliberately left them not-so-well-hidden, so the kids (half of them toddlers) would find them easily. Can you spot them? There is actually a good reason for having taken the pictures of the eggs we hid: in case they weren't found, we could still track them down (as we'd likely forget where they were all hidden). The adults do not have as good a memory as we used to :-b
