~Happy Easter~

Easter morning is a lot of fun at our house. The Easter bunny hides the kids Easter baskets and they need to follow clues to get to them. I think Hunter had a total of 22 clues, Mckell had 17, and Lexi had 10. They had a blast running all around the house, then outside to find the next clue.
The kids had written a little note to the Easter bunny, so he left a few things out for the kids, to get the basket hunt started. Their first clues are in their shoes.
Yes, it is still pitch black outside. The kids were up at 6:00 on the dot. We tried waking Lexi up to start the hunt with the other two, but she wasn't having any part of that. She climbed back in bed with Dave.
The Easter Bunny hid Hunter's basket down in the basement, and Mckell found hers in our food storage room.After about an hour, Lexi finally climbed out of bed. Hunter and Mckell were all to happy to help her read the clues to find her basket :)
Lexi's basket was hidden under Dave's computer desk.The Easter bunny brought the kids all kids of things. They each got a new swimsuit, a spring outfit, new shoes, new flip flops, crayons, a magic trick, the new Harry Potter movie, and TONS of candy.

Later that evening, we went to my mom and dad's for Easter dinner. The Easter bunny had hidden the kids baskets there as well. They had fun looking for another basket. The kids got more candy :) and flying moneys.
We had a very Happy Easter!!!!!

so fun! I like how you hide the baskets. We use to hide them until the kids quit looking. :( I think the clues are good. Sure love you guys
