Today there were many Easter activities in the area. Two were at local churches (our church does not have one). We had read about these in the paper. We weren't too sure how these events were going to go, so we didn't tell the twins what we were doing. We just said we were going to a surprise (and we brought our Easter baskets along because you never know when you just might need that!)
Surprise one: Egg dying at United Methodist Church. The twins got to dye eggs with us and enjoyed some nice snacks the congregation baked for the event.
Surprise 2: McDonald's play place. We had an hour between the two events so we took the kids to the McDonald's playground. It bought some time for us.
Surprise 3: Egg Hunt and bouncy house at Good Shepard Church. This church had an egg hunt (one for little kids, one for big kids-hence the Easter baskets)
And they had a bouncy house..huge hit!
Look at all that loot!
Afterwards, it was brownies and cupcakes and juice boxes...
And to top it all off they got a goodie bag from each church when we left.
Thanks to the United Methodist Church and the Church of the Good Shepard for welcoming us so warmly today. Both these events were free of charge and were designed to foster family enjoyment around this holiday weekend. And to think..the Easter Bunny has yet to arrive!
