Gotta love spring break in Idaho! My favorite thing of the break is when my Critical thinking Professor accused me of being on beach sipping a pina colada (ha ha) No I was in the snow. We had a great weekend planned, we were going to Salmon fishing. Well even though Jay would fish in the snow the kids and I are fair weather fishermen. So we stayed home. We went sledding, funny thing is there was better snow in April then at Christmas time. Oh the joys of Spring in Idaho! We made our Easter baskets out of Grocery sacks and colored eggs. I found a new trick for boiling eggs. I put 1 cup of salt in the water with the eggs and it makes it really easy to peel them. Yeah! We also tried painting eggs with a paint brush, I was fun but the paint went through the shell and so our deviled eggs were colorful. Sunday morning we had a great hunt and found that Gavin is our expert finder. The Easter bunny hid eggs to well though because we were still finding eggs 5 hours later. Happy Spring Everyone!

Love the salt in the water trick, peeling the eggs is my least favorite part of the whole celebration! Unfortunately I don't think it looks like spring break, maybe Christmas break??? Glad you guys made fun out of a bummer situation :)+
