Easter Eggs!

Sorry it's been awhile since I have blogged. I really haven't had anything exciting to write about right now.

Everyone is feeling better. Colton didn't end up having strep throat. Thank goodness. I think it was more allergies than anything, because he had blisters in his throat one day and then the next day they were gone. I'm glad we didn't have to go to the doctor.

Today is a pretty nasty day. It's rainy and very windy. I hope its pretty this weekend for Easter. It seems like its always cold and rainy on Easter. The kids are getting excited about hunting eggs. I always liked that too.

I have a funny story about Easter eggs. My mom, sister, and I ran a ladies consignment shop for awhile in our town. Our shop was beside a church that had a preschool. I was working at the shop one day and my kids were with me. The preschool had a big playground that my kids would play at. Colton then 4 and Emma then 2 went to play at the playground. I was keeping an eye on them out the shop window, when I noticed them running around carrying these bright colored things in there hands. I went outside to see what they were doing and was so upset. I was unaware that the preschool teachers had hid eggs for their class and my two kids had went and found every single egg and put them in a big pile. I couldn't believe it. They were so proud of what they had did. "Look Mommy we found all the eggs", they said. I was upset at the time but it was really funny. We quickly hid all the eggs again and then I had to go explain to the teachers that my kids had found all the eggs they hid for their class. The teachers thought it was funny too. From then on my kids were only allowed to play at the playground on days that there was no preschool.

It's so funny now to think how excited they were that someone had hid eggs for them to find, but at the time I didn't find it very funny. Hopefully they will have as much fun finding eggs this year.
