Welcome back!\u00a0 I hope you enjoyed the breath of Spring offered to us!\u00a0 I spent some days with 3 of my granddaughters.\u00a0 They decided to fill Easter Eggs and hide them for my husband and me to find.\u00a0 38 eggs were filled and hidden.\u00a0 32 eggs were found.\u00a0 oh boy…I’ll be looking for a while to find the remaining eggs.<\/p>\n
