This year Mom told Karen we wouldn't be celebrating Easter, in the egg hunting, candy receiving way we did last year. (Last year my brother and his family came, so egg hunting with a small child makes sense.) I guess egg hunting with my parents, a 29 year old and a 27 year old doesn't make as much sense.
But I wouldn't give up.
I bought some plastic eggs, filled them with candy and hid them throughout the house.
Karen came down the hall and thanked Mom when she found one and Mom said, "That's from a different Easter bunny."
Slowly but surely Mom & Dad discovered there were eggs hidden (I didn't tell them). Mom keeps giving me a count for how many they found, as they keep randomly finding more. (Because I wasn't kidding around in my hiding skills :)
Anyway, it's a fun idea for adults, rather than racing around the yard together looking for eggs.
Note: when kids are present, I will most definitely be running around the yard
Also note Mom & Dad surprised us with stuff anyway. Maybe they just said that to get us off their scent.
