The Easter Bunny found us...

HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!!




Thanks to Auntie Val for giving the egg dye kits to Chad when he was back home. I did not see any of them here!!



Saturday morning we went to Mama Meya (Brady's favorite indoor playground) for an Easter party. We went with a couple other friends and the kids had a blast. They had a bunch of different stations set up for crafts, coloring eggs, food, face painting, games, and decorating cupcakes.






Rilynn's lovely face paint job!! She did half herself :)

Easter morning- The Easter bunny found the kids here in China and hid their baskets and some eggs in the house for them to find when they woke up! Little do they know how hard it was for the bunny to find the basket and eggs here :)




We were invited to join a huge group of expats for an egg hunt followed by lunch at a hotel. There was probably 10-12 families and a TON of young kids. The daddies hid around 400 eggs in the lawn behind our apartment for the kids to find. Between all the kids it took only about 10 minutes to get them all :) It was so much fun and a little taste of back home going hunting..





After the hunt we headed over to the Intercontinental Expo Hotel in Pudong for our Easter lunch buffet. The buffet had a little of everything and even some great ham and awesome desserts. Only thing missing was some yummy mashed potatoes! It's also a nice find to get a good western meal here :)

The yummy dessert spread with chocolate fountain.. MMMMMM



They had face painting and crafts in the hotel for the kids. Thankfully this face painter was a little more talented than the one at Mama Meya!! LOL

In the back of the hotel they had a huge open grassy area with soccer nets, a bouncy castle, and a swingset for the kids to burn off their sugar intake. It was like being back home, it felt good :)
