The Cheslers were
kind enough to host an Easter dinner for us transplants without family
close by. An egg hunt and decorating contest were planned. There were
lots of kids present to partake in all the festivities. The girls were
thrilled to have so many kids to frolic with...Annie was especially excited
about Avery's arrival. 99 eggs were hidden, and the kids couldn't wait
to get out to search for them. 3 of the eggs were "golden" and,
if found, would result in special prizes. A few tears were shed when all
the golden eggs were discovered, but all the kids ended up with some of
sort of prize in the end. Oh, the drama of childhood. An egg decorating
activity also kept the kids busy. What fun! Lamb and honey-baked ham were
the main courses served with garlic mashed potatoes, asparugus, and delicious
salad. The evening was topped off with a birthday cake for Trang. Mike
and I were the bakers/decorators. It was a big hit! The girls were absolutely
exhausted when we got home and actually slept in a bit the next morning.
No arguments from me. |
