Have you been busy? Our schedule has been hopping. (Yes, the Easter pun is intended.) This season is very busy for our family. With a school program and several rehearsals, I was SO thankful for the breakfast help from Chick-Fil-A. Our local Chick-Fil-A hosted a Customer Appreciation Week and served a free breakfast item to each customer ALL WEEK. It was a blessing to visit the drive through each morning to receive the following:
- Monday – Chicken Breakfast Burrito
- Tuesday – Chick-Fil-A® Spicy Chicken Biscuit
- Wednesday – Chicken, Egg & Cheese on Sunflower Multigrain Bagel
- Thursday – Sausage Biscuit
- Friday – Yogurt Parfait with Harvest Nut Granola or Chocolate Cookie Crumbs topping
- Saturday – Cinnamon Cluster, which our family did not get to try. We opted for a quiet morning at home. 🙂
Our busy week ended by attending the school performance. This production was a fundraiser for our school, and we fully supported this event. How wonderful to be able to support a great school!
With the program complete and some time at home, I found myself hosting a spontaneous Easter Egg Hunt. As I was cleaning our home, I put away the St. Patrick’s Day items and unpacked the Easter decorations. My children quickly found the plastic eggs and had had a blast playing with them! On Tuesday evening, the weather was so nice, and the kids were begging to go outside to play. To appease them, I took 30 eggs out to our front yard and “hid” them. Our neighbors were also outside with their young children, so we invited them over to play. We completed 2 or 3 egg hunts with my son taking a turn hiding the eggs. It was fun for all and ended with a good lesson for my children about sharing.
Another Easter activity I plan to incorporate into this weekend is . . .
coloring eggs. I have a number of Easter kits that I purchased inexpensively for my children to enjoy. My daughter loves arts, crafts, coloring, and decorating, so this pastime is right up her alley. Did I mention that I just cleaned my house? Having worked really hard, I would love to keep it clean for a few days. Any tips you can offer on keeping this activity stain-free are GREATLY appreciated.
Wishing your family a wonderful Easter weekend together!
