Hey y’all!
At Blissdom, I had the opportunity to create my own Easter basket filled with fun Hershey’s candy. The yummy goodies should be delivered in the next few days, and I seriously can’t wait! :)
Growing up, Easter, like all of the other holidays, was always a big deal in our family. Momma and Daddy always worked so hard to make sure we had a fun Easter morning. Even while I was in college, we still had Easter baskets waiting for us with colorful eggs hidden all over the house.
An Easter memory that always sticks out in my mind (and I’m sure he’s sick and tired of hearing this story) is Colby’s method for finding the Easter eggs. After we looked through our fun baskets, we would head off to find the eggs hidden around the house. For YEARS, Colby would follow along behind me and look in the exact same spot I looked, just in case I left an egg or two for him. When the eggs were all found, my basket would be overflowing, and Colby would be lucky to have two or three. Sorry Colby! :)
What are some of your favorite Easter memories? If you could design the perfect Easter basket, what would be in it?
Haha– that’s cute. Little brothers could be fun sometimes. :)
Haha! What a funny strategy he had! We always had lunch and then the fun egg hunts but we never got a special Easter basket or anything. That’s something I liked doing with our foster kids and want to keep doing with whatever kiddos we may have. And I love what your parents did… I might have to hide eggs around the house one day. That would be funny to watch. :)
I’m excited to see you next week and hear all about this new job! :)
My mom would hide eggs in different places for the 3 of us. Though, I do recall one Easter when Daddy took me outside and planted peanut M&M’s. When Easter Morning came, there were Easter Eggs right where we planted the M&M’s!
For years after I was convinced that M&M’s grew into Easter Eggs!!
I think I still have my Easter basket someplace. Either my Grandmother or my momma made them.
Oh I love Easter baskets!!! We still exchange them for fun in my house!
