After church, we headed over to Grammy Sheba's house for a nice lunch and the grand egg hunt. There wasn't anything big about it except for the amount of eggs involved...107 to be exact. The story behind that you ask? Well, when we went looking for the plastic eggs this year (last minute of course...as in the day before Easter), we couldn't find them anywhere. Since time was against us and eggs aren't that expensive, we got a great deal at Walmart (yay for 60% off). After all that, we picked Iyana up from her sleepover at a friend's house and come to find out that she had the eggs hidden on her top bunk because she was working on a surprise for us. Needless to say, she forgot that she had left them up there and we obviously didn't look up there. Guess I didn't think to look for a bunch of plastic eggs in her bed. So, we have a lot of plastic eggs now. And BJ being who he is, loved the idea of filling up ALL of them. Good thing were not big into candy. Some of them had toddler friendly treats in them for Dayson and slips of paper for Iyana telling her that she received some of her favorite CD's.
She found the talking egg.

Hope that you had a blessed Easter yourself and that you were able to hear about the true meaning of the day.
John 3:16 - For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Matthew 28:5-6 - The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; He has risen, just as He said. Come and see the place where He lay.
CHRIST IS RISEN!!! HE IS RISEN INDEED!!!
