The Annual Non-Denomination Egg Decorating and Backyard Egg Hunt Party.
Food: Pineapple-Mandarin Orange Upside-down Cake, Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Frosting, Cheesecake with Strawberry topping, potato salad, three bean salad, and chips and salsa. A guest brought a lemon-lavender cake that was really, really good.
I boiled 90+ eggs.
The artists were artistic.
At 4:00 PM the guests assembled. Many were unable to hunt for eggs because of back, neck, shoulder, and hemmoroid problems.
Afterward, we hung out and chatted and the drinks I had caught up to me.

I had purchased the contents of the baskets for the top three and the children when my mother was here.
Jesse and Craig were the first guests to arrive! It was Craig's birthday.

Today I took leftover cake and boiled eggs to work. Reminder for next year- only two cakes and no three bean salad.
