Easter egg hunt
When our five were young we had an egg hunt in the house with artifical grass nests. I know Steve use to trade for licorice ones. I have been filling plastic eggs with a toy, a stamp and candy for Sunday School this week and decorating paper sacks with designs for my family. We will dye hard boiled eggs on Saturday. Some will just be dyed but some will be place cards for the Easter table. You write the name on with a birthday candle before you put it in the dye. You are not required to eat your placecard as othera will to it. Here in Shawnee they are going to drop eggs from an airplane. That would be interesting to see. I take it the children are in one place and they drop the eggs in the next field. There is a good turnout at church on Easter to show off new clothes. Growing up we got new shoes. My dress was generally handed down as I was the 3rd girl but shoes were new. I got my first dress not worn by anyone else when I was 12 and it cost $1.98 at J C Penney's on the second floor next to the bank in Topeka. I was gorgeous. HAPPY EASTER.
