Just days before Easter, I found the most wonderful surprise in my mailbox: a package from Cara, Will, and Lincoln. (notice how cute those three bunnies are in the card) I was totally, totally surprised. What a sweet surprise and when I say "sweet" I do mean sweet. Cara sent some of her favorite Easter treats: Cadbury creme eggs, Cadbury mini eggs, and Starburst crazy beans. Thanks Dahlquists!

The next surprise was when the fertilizer man fertilized our front and back yard on the very day of our annual Easter Egg Hunt. What to do, what to do. Didn't really want to hide eggs in grass covered with fertilizer. Fortunately, Lisa said we could hold the hunt at her house, and it turned out very nice. Thanks, Sextons.

Now, a few things that were not a surprise: Sydney traded money for chocolate. She and Allie both came away happy. Allie and Carter found their own corner of the yard to sort out their candy and money.

It is soo strange to see the egg hunt pictures in my backyard instead of yours....Great night!
All the pictures are beautiful. Allie and Sydney look more and more alike. Such a hard decision, money or chocolate.
i like the dramatic start that hill at lisa's offers.
Great tradition!
