This year Easter coincided with April school vacation. We did a quick pit-stop in Omaha to spend Easter with family before heading off to the Grand Canyon.
Easter Egg Hunt
Boy was it a chilly morning to be out hunting for eggs. After church service there was even a few flurries. Not the weather you expect for this holiday. But that didn't stop everyone from racing to the eggs.
Of course a bit of counting and trading occurred subsequently.
Easter Escape the Room
Since the kids enjoyed the Easter scavenger hunt a few years back, we set up an escape the room challenge for them. Thanks to Opa for finding several tool boxes that could be locked. Clues were hidden around the house with the objective of opening three boxes per team. The first to complete all the tasks inside won.
These guys were behind for most of the game but pulled it out at the last minute!
Resurrection Crosses
The last Easter activity was making resurrection crosses. Ahead of time Avery collected and tied together sticks to make bare crosses. Then they were decorated with flowers and greenery on Easter. This was such a great symbol of what Easter means for all of us.
