egg-stravaganza

on friday, april 22nd, we headed to lowry nature center for a spring egg-stravaganza. although the weather felt more like november, we had a great time. gibson and chaya were to hunt for bags with colored rocks and kenya was hunting for clues to decode a secret message.

heading out to our specific trail - they had several trails set up to accommodate lots of guests.

found one!

the bags were very camouflaged.

an egg-stremely good time!

a little serving action - too bad it didn't score a point

me and some gals from work before our annual 5k (3.1 miles) earth day run in st. cloud, mn. i actually was ranked 20th out of 183 in my age division. (best personal time to date) yeah!

coloring easter eggs, this is before the drama of the decorating gone bad. kits now-a-days come with too much "extra" stuff, therefore, making it disastrous. what happened to just plain ol' dipping?

this is one of the good eggs.
