Eggs


we start with this


mix in this


add in some very eager help...
chocolate is a very good incentive.


and eventually you get all 600 eggs for the annual Daycare Egg Hunt
filled. Usually this task is completed much sooner (the egg hunt is Sunday)
I admit I have been avoiding it, until tonight, and only because there is simply no other time in the next few days that I would be able to accomplish this task, well perhaps 2am on Friday night might work, but I'm thinking I would be the only one filling eggs, not to mention I do like to sleep at that time of the night. So tonight it was, and it went quite well, with some very eager helpers, Anthony and Rosie and some not so eager Josh. a bit of candy was tossed around, you know I would think by now Josh would remember how good his mother's aim is. A few eggs were tossed too, Rosie is showing signs of excellent aim also. Found a couple eggs with left over chocolate from last year...and of course there was a bit of chocolate consumed (it helps to keep the volunteers active :)

Hey, the little ones still think it's great fun, (who wouldn't when there is a pile of candy in the middle of the floor?) Josh, well that took some creative manuvering (bribery always works) After 19 years I've become a bit of a pro at this. I'm happy to report that bleaching toys has improved with time...gotta love modern advancement :) you're welcome anytime to join us, if you truly are missing those days.

Yeah well 10 years ago you were quite good at the trickery also. "Oh come over...I have something really fun to do!" Man do I ask questions these days when I hear that phrase!
