Easter and Jam

We had a very interesting Easter weekend. Travis had his 20 year class reunion. The girls stayed with my mother for the night. We had Easter lunch at my parents' home and hunted eggs out there. This was Callie's first Easter egg hunt with us. She loved it! She kept walking around with a hand out (see pic) saying "Where eggs?" It was super cute. However, we concluded that she could have hunted eggs in the same circle all day. As she would run, the eggs she had found would fall out without her noticing. After picking up a new egg, she would turn around in total amazement at the eggs behind her. This was a never ending cycle. Jenny was not as happy about Easter egg hunting due to the wet grass. She did not like having to walk in or touch the wet grass. We survived all the storms without any damage or danger. We were lucky enough to spend one of the worst nights in our friends' safe room. I was glad for the storms to pass as four adults and four children 4 and under in a safe room can become very tiring! I also tried my hand at making Strawberry Jam. The first round didn't firm, so it tastes good, but runs alot. The second round came out perfect. I think I might try to make some more and branch out and can some Salsa!
