The weekend before Easter, I babysat my nephews and decided that we were in need of a little adventure. So, I did what any responsible adult would do and took them egging! Well...it's not quite what you think ; ) I printed some Easter egg coloring pages off of the Internet and had the boys color them. They actually did a really great job and and even Jonathan got in on the fun.
While they were coloring, we hung out in my room and watched the Easter Charlie Brown movie.
Then, we went to Target to get a few snacks for the people we were egging. We put a few snack bags together and then went out for our adventure. Sadly, Aaron was feeling kinda sick and fell asleep by the time we were ready to go out and David and Melissa had just gotten back, so they kept Jonathan, who was also feeling a bit under the weather.
So, Joey, Cy, and I went out. Beforehand, I had arranged a couple of places to "visit". Usually, this type of thing is a surprise and you don't tell the people ahead of time, but I was planning on taking four little boys, ages 8, 6, 4, and 1, on this adventure and knew that they might not be especially discreet and I didn't want their fun to be spoiled by getting caught. Scott was gracious enough to let us come and "egg" his house and he did as he promised and ignored any sounds, camera flashes, etc. : ) We also got to go to Nancy's house and "egg" her. The boys LOVED it and were SO excited that they didn't get caught! So, big thanks to Nancy and Scott for making this a success : )
Here are some pictures of the boys on our big adventure:
